Mullings and Edwards both have good days

I'd love to see Michigan football rush for over 200 yards in this game. But the Wolverines rushing attack has left a lot to be desired.

Still, they have had two weeks to work on it. One thing we shouldn't see is anyone besides Donovan Edwards or Kalel Mullings carrying the ball at the running back position.

Feed them the ball. It will be their final game at the Big House and outside of Colston Loveland, they are the two best players on offense. Michigan should live and die with them.

Northwestern will make it tough, but my prediction is that both players score touchdowns on Saturday against the Wildcats.
