Many folks would have liked to see last year's Georgia squad play for the national title and disputed the legitimacy of Michigan's national title. If the outcome of this year's game is any indicator, the Wolverines would have earned that title one way or the other.
#11 Michigan piled up 559 yards of total offense, including 245 rushing yards that led to seven scores on the ground, and routed the #1 Bulldogs on the road, 63-34.
Michigan QB James Tepper ran for three of those touchdowns, finishing with 60 yards on 12 carries. He added a fourth score in the passing game, completing 20 of 27 passes for 282 yards. HB Michael Shaw had a huge game, running for 147 yards on just 10 carries, including touchdown runs of 11, 35, 34, and 41 yards.

The #2 Wolverines were thoroughly outclassed on their own field, turning the ball over eight times and failing to score until the fourth quarter in a 45-21 loss to #17 Virginia Tech.
Were it not for the turnovers, the Wolverines likely would have been in position for a huge win. They outgained the Hokies 503-314 on offense, produced 26 first downs to Virginia Tech's 12, and had nearly a 2-1 edge in time of possession. But QB James Tepper had the worst game of his young career, throwing four interceptions and fumbling the ball twice, and his teammates didn't give him much help.

Michigan's fans haven't seen them win a game at home yet, but the Wolverines have turned out to be world-beaters on the road. Michigan claimed their second win over a top 5 team, knocking off #3 Oklahoma in Norman, 56-33.
The Wolverines were led by a superb performance from junior HB Michael Shaw, who rushed for 125 yards and four TDs. Shaw added 18 yards on one catch and 121 yards on four kick returns.
The Wolverines were able to score quickly and often--none of their touchdown drives lasted longer than 31 seconds. Oklahoma outgained Michigan 406-343 and held the ball over six minutes longer (17:08-10:52), but the Wolverines benefitted from short fields several times throughout the day and took advantage of a porous Sooner defense.
