Michigan gets 12 days before its Christmas clash against Nebraska. That's a long time between games. Consider:
-Nebraska: plays @ Wisconsin on 12/21 before its games vs Michigan.
-Maryland, M's 12/31 opponent: plays 4 games between now and its 12/31 game @ Michigan: Rutgers (today), LaSalle (12/22), @ Wisconsin (12/28).
-Minnesota (6-0) has 5 games to go in 2020: @ Illinois (12/15), Saint Louis (12/20), Iowa (12/25), MSU (12/28), @ Wisconsin (12/31). Things are going to get real for Minnesota in a hurry.
-OSU (5-0) has 5 games to go in 2020: @ Purdue (12/16), UNC (12/19), Rutgers (12/23), @ NW (12/26), Nebraska (12/30)
So both of Michigan's next two opponents play @ Wisconsin immediately before playing Michigan.
None of this necessarily means anything, I just think it's interesting other teams are playing lots of games between now and New Year's and Michigan isn't.
