Ann Arbor — Michigan is a double-digit underdog heading into Happy Valley to face No. 2 Penn State this weekend, and the Wolverines’ AP ranking dropped two spots after a road win.
The 19th-ranked Wolverines feel like they keep getting knocked back and are looking toward Saturday night’s “white out” game at Beaver Stadium as a way to right the national perspective regarding who they are.
Michigan is 5-1, 2-1 Big Ten, with a loss at home to Michigan State. The Wolverines were ranked No. 7 entering that game. Penn State lost 49-10 to Michigan last year but went on to win the Big Ten championship.
