Michigan could earn back-to-back wins vs. teams in the AP top 25 at the time of the game (#15 Wisconsin and #24 Michigan State). It would be the first time U-M has accomplished this feat since 2003 when it beat #10 Purdue at home and then (yep, you guessed it) #9 MSU in East Lansing.

Some other notable Michigan streaks at play tomorrow:
- Michigan has lost 17 straight true road games vs. teams in the AP top 25 at the time of the game, with its last such win coming at #2 ND in 2006. U-M can snap that streak tomorrow vs. #24 MSU.
- As I discussed in my Inside the Numbers column this week, Michigan (-7) has the chance to beat the spread vs. Michigan State for the first time since 2007 (0-10-0 since then).
- Michigan hopes to win its seventh straight game overall, which would be its second-longest winning streak since 2007 (longest: 10 straight in 2015-16).
