Indiana (2-3, 0-2 Big Ten) at No. 2 Michigan (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten) , Saturday, noon ET (Fox).
Line: Michigan by 33 1/2, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
Series record: Michigan leads 61-10.
WHAT’S AT STAKE?
Michigan is aiming to keep its momentum toward potentially winning the Big Ten and national championship. Indiana fans have soured on coach Tom Allen, who is 8-21 over the past 2 1/2 seasons. A stunning upset would give him and the program a desperately needed boost.
KEY MATCHUP
Hoosiers revamped offense against Michigan's defense. Allen took advantage of the bye week by firing offensive coordinator Walt Bell and hiring Rod Carey. The Wolverines are giving up 6.7 points a game, ranking No. 1 in FBS.
PLAYERS TO WATCH
Indiana: WR Donaven McCulley. The converted quarterback may play a more significant role. At 6-foot-5, 200 pounds, he’s a tough matchup, and has emerged as one of QB Tayven Jackson’s favorites in recent weeks.
Michigan: DT Mason Graham. Returned from a two-game absence for thumb surgery on his left hand and had a team-high six tackles, including a sack and another tackle for a loss, in last week's 52-10 win at Minnesota.
