Wolverines Blow Out Falcons
The 2017 College Football Season is underway and the Wolverines showed the country that these young kids can play!
Biggest Surprise of the game was redshirt freshman Brandon Peters getting the start over last years starter Wilton Speight. And did he make Jim Harbaugh look like a genius by tossing 4 TDs to 4 different receievers. He was 16 of 21 for 235 yards before he was pulled with the rest of the starters towards the end of the 3rd quarter.
Chris Evans and Karan Higdon paced the rushing attack with a combined 144 yards and a touchdown apeice.
Ten different recievers caught a pass for the Wolverines including true freshman Nico Collins, Tarik Black and Donovan Peoples-Jones. Collins and Peoples-Jones also added a Touchdown for their efforts
The defense was led by Devin Bush and Rashan Gary. Bush totaled 4 tackles and Gary and true freshman Aubrey Soloman added a sack apeice.
The 1-0 Wolverines will travel to Dallas to take on the Florida Gators in the Cowboys Kickoff Classic next weekend.
