How Michigan’s 2021 opponents did in Week 2

The Michigan Wolverines pummeled Washington on Saturday night in front of a Maize Out crowd of nearly 110,000 fans. But how did the rest of their opponents fare last weekend?

Western Michigan (Sept. 4, 47-14 win)

The Broncos clearly relished playing as a heavy favorite after experiencing the other side of a massive talent disparity in their season opener in Ann Arbor. They thumped Illinois State (a pretty decent FCS team for what it’s worth) 28-0, holding the Redbirds to four first downs and outgaining them 407-57.

Western Michigan might not have been able to compete with Michigan, but it should still be one of the better teams in the MAC this season.
