Michigan football announces uniform combo for Indiana game

Michigan football is heading back on the road on Saturday for a game no one — and we mean no one — would have seen coming as a tough fight with the Wolverines as a sizable underdog.

That’s because Indiana is rolling, ranked No. 8 in the College Football Playoff rankings, and the Hoosiers have been clowning every team in its path not too dissimilar from how Michigan has the past three seasons. Thus, the 5-4, unranked Wolverines have an uphill climb in this tough battle.

As such, Saturday is a big game, and one that the Wolverines will be breaking out the road version of the ‘big game blues’ by wearing white tops and blue pants and blue accessories at Memorial Stadium.

Michigan has only lost once to Indiana since 1987, that being in the COVID year, 2020. The Hoosiers had Michael Penix Jr. while the Wolverines were looking to find their way following an unexpected Week 2 loss to Michigan State.

If Michigan wins this game, it will become bowl eligible but if it loses, it will fall to 5-5 on the season.

The last time the Wolverines wore the road blues was in the Week 8 loss at Illinois. Prior to that, Michigan had never lost on the road while wearing blue pants.
