ANN ARBOR - The team in the Michigan jerseys was showered with boos as it left the field at halftime yesterday.

It was the same guys wearing those same shirts who were adored by a frenetic Big House crowd after the Wolverines' shocking 27-25 win over the No. 9 Wisconsin Badgers.

"It's probably No. 1 right now," Wolverines senior defensive tackle Terrance Taylor said of where the triumph ranks for him. "To be down that much with no hope and everybody's counting you out, and to just fight back like that … it was really a team effort.

"I'm really proud of everybody."
