This season will not yield many memorable games that fans will look back on in future years. The Michigan Wolverines have won just three Big Ten contests, each of them enjoyable for a moment, but each of them ultimately culminating in nothing. However, this Sunday offers a new opportunity: a chance to douse a flame.
Since an MLK Day win over the Ohio State Buckeyes, Michigan has gone an astonishing 1-10. While the Buckeyes would go on to lose five of their next six as well, they have followed that up with a 4-2 stretch that includes wins over Purdue, Michigan State, and Nebraska to crack the door slightly open with postseason hopes.
