The once dominant Big Ten programs, Michigan and Penn State, have been less than good this year. The AP preseason polls came out with PSU at No. 7 and the Wolverines were No. 16 to start the season, but now the maize and blue are sitting at 2-3 on the year, while the Nittany Lions are 0-5 and still trying to find out how to notch a win in the 2020 season.
When the schedules came out in late October, this was supposed to be a big time matchup — and possibly a game to see who would go to the Big Ten championship game. Well, now it’s just another game on the schedule, and a very ‘mildly interesting’ game to the casual football fan.
This game still means quite a bit to each program — and more than likely to the fan bases — as PSU will try to win a game, and the Wolverines want to start a winning streak after defeating Rutgers last week in three overtimes.
Let’s discuss what three things Michigan needs to do in order to win this Saturday against a hungry, and desperate, Penn State team.
