The Michigan Wolverines continued their dominant run in East Lansing, securing a resounding 49-0 victory over the Michigan State Spartans. The Wolverines improved their overall record to a perfect 8-0, keeping their undefeated season intact.

While the Wolverines showcased their strength and depth, it was the opportunity to give valuable playing time to their backup players, including several true freshmen, that stood out in this rivalry matchup. These young talents proved their potential and contributed to Michigan's remarkable success.

Among the freshmen who were given the chance to gain on-field experience, wide receiver Semaj Morgan shone once again. Morgan, known for his ability to break tackles and play above his size, displayed his skills with three receptions for 39 yards, including a long of 24 yards. With performances like this, Morgan is poised to become one of Michigan's leading receivers in the coming years.

Another true freshman, wide receiver Fredrick Moore, although relatively quiet, also took the field and contributed to the Wolverines' victory. Moore ended the night with 10 yards to his name. Additionally, running back Benjamin Hall showcased his abilities, recording nine yards during the game. However, it is expected that Hall's playing time may decrease in the latter part of the season if RB3 Kalel Mullings returns to full health in two weeks.

On the defensive end, true freshmen DJ Waller Jr. and Trey Pierce made their presence felt. Waller Jr. displayed an impressive performance, ending the evening with two tackles and a pass breakup. Pierce also recorded a tackle against the Spartans, showcasing his potential and adding depth to Michigan's defensive line.

With the Wolverines heading into a much-needed bye week, the team looks forward to some well-deserved rest. Despite their impressive health record thus far, this week off will serve as a refresher as they prepare for the challenging final four games of the regular season.

Michigan's undefeated run has been nothing short of outstanding, and their ability to integrate young talent into their lineup bodes well for the team's future success. As they continue to dominate on the field, the Wolverines' prowess coupled with the development of their freshmen promises an exciting journey ahead.
