Even after coming off of the bye week, the Wolverines are still battling injuries. On its latest injury report prior to the Illinois' game, the Wolverines officially noted there was one season-ending injury sustained.
Last week, Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh spoke out on the brawl, which occurred following his team's 29-7 victory over the Spartans on Oct. 29 at Michigan Stadium.
After another uninspiring performance, the Spartans did their best to distract from the fact that they are last in the Big Ten East at 3-5 overall and 1-4 in conference.
