Michigan Daily: Article by Courtney Ratkowiak and Ian Robinson

Wolverines' defense and special teams should lead them in South Bend

Notre Dame rushing offense vs. Michigan rushing defense

Notre Dame had just 105 rushing yards against San Diego State last week. That would be bad for the Fighting Irish in a normal season. Consider the Aztecs had seven injuries on the defensive line, and the Michigan defensive front should be licking its chops.

The Wolverines are giving up just 1.1 yards per carry this season. Armando Allen and Robert Hughes, Notre Dame's top two running backs, have to hope their offensive line can find a way to control the line of scrimmage or create holes. But don't expect that to happen.

Edge: Michigan
