Penn State football

In a game that wasn't nearly as close as the score indicated as Michigan football dominated Penn State and proved it has the best running game in America.

- The QBs legs were a big factor too. Penn State even took the lead in the third quarter, 17-16, making it the first time Michigan football has trailed all year in the second half. By then, you could sense it was over — and the defense slammed the door. It was impressive and should erase any doubt about what this Michigan football team is capable of this season. [I had a good idea that Michigan football was going to run the ball well against Penn State](https://gbmwolverine.com/2022/10/14/5-predictions-michigan-football-penn-state/). The two long touchdown runs from Donovan Edwards and Blake Corum changed the game.

Michigan Wolverines football imposed its will on the ground against Penn State, ripping off two scores of more than 60 yards in a 41-17 win.

"Like coach Harbaugh said in the locker room, it was a butt-kicking in every which way a butt can be kicked," McCarthy said. Out of 55 total attempts, just six went for zero or negative yards (and two of those came late in the fourth with Michigan running out the clock). "The offensive guard took the corner, the tackle took the linebacker and the gap was so wide open," Edwards said. Oluwatimi and Zinter were in the middle of it again. The two long touchdown scores were the first time two Michigan ball carriers had scored from 60-plus yards since Nov. The Wolverines knew they were going to control the line of scrimmage. Blake Corum took the handoff left, but Penn State's Ji'Ayir Brown pushed through left tackle Ryan Hayes to blow up the play in the backfield for a loss of 3 yards. "Obviously the first half, we wish it went a little different way scoreboard-wise," McCarthy said. But McCarthy sailed the pass over his head, and Michigan settled for a 29-yard Jake Moody field goal. They stood in ovation for Lloyd Carr — on the day the tunnel was named after the coach of that team — as he took his cap off in return to acknowledge the fan base. 10 team in the country, I'll sit back and be a part of that ride every single game. "At halftime, it was two big plays, everybody knew what the deal was," Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh said.
