Michigan will be without starting left guard Giovanni El-Hadi for several more weeks with an injury, but could see safety Rod Moore play his first game since the end of the 2023 season this coming Saturday at Nebraska.
El-Hadi, a fifth-year player and second-year starter, injured his ankle in Michigan's Sept. 6 loss at Oklahoma. He sat out Saturday's win against Central Michigan and likely will miss the first few Big Ten games, acting head coach Bill Poggi said Monday. The offensive line could get a boost at Nebraska as starting right guard Brady Norton, who missed the Central Michigan game, will practice this week and could return in Lincoln.
