While Michigan football fans anxiously await this weekend's big matchup with rival Ohio State, acting head coach Sherrone Moore is busy sorting through a spate of injuries that occurred during the team's 31-24 victory over Maryland this past weekend, reports Nick Kosko of On3, including a key one to wide receiver Roman Wilson.
The notable bumps and bruises occurred on the Wolverines' offense, which has been a key factor in their success all season long.

Roman will be hopeful to clear protocol as he's one of many Michigan seniors with something to prove.
