Shea Patterson – Noteworthy
Shea Patterson had his best day running the ball and was pretty good at throwing it, too. Patterson accounted for 214 yards of offense and a touchdown, leading No. 12 Michigan to a 38-13 victory over No. 15 Wisconsin on Saturday night. The Wolverines called some plays designed for Patterson and that created problems for the Badgers. And sometimes, Patterson simply ran on his own after scrambling around. “It opens up a lot for your offense,” coach Jim Harbaugh said. The Wolverines (6-1, 4-0 Big Ten) beat a ranked conference team for the first time since topping the Badgers two years ago. They have won six straight games since opening this season with a seven-point loss to then-No. 12 Notre Dame. With games coming up against rival Michigan State on the road and No. 8 at Penn State, no one in the maize and blue was in a mood to celebrate the big win over the Badgers. “It’s just a start,” said Michigan’s Karan Higdon, who ran for 105 yards and a score that broke a scoreless tie early in the second quarter. “We’re not done yet.” – AP College Football
