A brutal injury update has emerged for Saturday's showdown between the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Michigan Wolverines.

University of Michigan has its football, men's and women's basketball and hockey teams all in the top 15 in their respective national rankings.

Michigan running back Jordan Marshall has been banged up the last couple of weeks, having to leave in the fourth quarter in the Wolverines' 24-22 win over North

Former Ohio Mr. Football winner Jordan Marshall cites culture differences between programs as a primary reason he chose Michigan as a top-100 recruit.

At 8-2, the Wolverines are ranked at No. 18 in the most recent College Football Playoff ranking, where the top 12 teams at the end of the season will earn a trip to the playoff. That means Michigan still has some work to do to climb into contention, but its road to the playoff is pretty clear.

4Q, 13:19: Michigan is moving into victory formation a bit early, putting in RB Jasper Parker as the leading rusher. He took 4 of 5 plays on this drive and rushed it six yards for the diving touchdown. Michigan extends lead to 42-13.
