Michigan football has every goal in front of it this season, still, even after a 7-2 start. The Wolverines don't have a marquee win, but if they win the next two games and beat Ohio State, the rest should take care of itself.
That quest starts Saturday against Northwestern. Michigan and Northwestern will play at Wrigley Field on Fox. That alone makes this game interesting. Yet, the Wildcats have plenty at stake, too.
Northwestern is 5-4 on the season. Clinching a bowl game would be huge. Beating Michigan to do it would be even better.
