Nico Collins and The Randy Moss Effect

The Michigan Wolverines beat the Maryland Terrapins 38-7 on Saturday, improving to 7-2 on the season. During the game, quarterback Shea Patterson hit wide receiver Nico Collins deep for a 51 yard gain.

The long reception put Michigan within striking distance of the end zone, and they would score a touchdown two plays later.

Collins has been the biggest vertical threat for Michigan this season, in stature and in terms of production.

“He has a dynamic element to our offense where you have to pay attention to every snap and most of the time when he is one on one, he is going to go up and get it so I think he draws a lot of attention to himself,” Shea Patterson said after the game.
