Michigan will enter Saturday with a 4-3 record, making it very close to a must-win game for Sherrone Moore and the Wolverines. The maize and blue won’t be competing for the Big Ten title, and unless they win, they’re unlikely to make the playoffs. But Michigan can still beat its rivals, and Michigan State is ranked first.

The Spartans will also enter the game with a 4-3 record. Michigan State is coming off its best performance of the season after defeating Iowa in East Lansing. Jonathan Smith is hoping to get a signature win for his program in Year 1.

As Saturday approaches, Michigan has announced its jersey combination for the rivalry game. Wolverines prefer the classic look under the lights. He goes with his Michigan blue jersey, corn pants and white accessories.
