Under acting head coach Sherrone Moore, Michigan ran the ball 46 times and only passed it eight times but still beat Penn State going away, holding the Nittany Lions to six points in the second half.
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Imagine the feeling for Michigan's players and coaches when they awoke in the team hotel on Saturday morning and had no idea who would lead them onto the field at Beaver Stadium in a few short hours.
For a passing attack that struggled to create big plays all season, a miss of that import was difficult for the home fans to swallow. Allar fumbled two plays later to give the ball back to the Wolverines. What followed was one of Michigan's most important drives of the season, even if it finished shy of the end zone.
