Michigan Football Faces Ohio State Without Haynes

Michigan Football Faces Ohio State Challenge Without Star Running Back Justice Haynes
Michigan football is set to face a significant challenge this weekend against Ohio State, as star running back Justice Haynes has been ruled out due to a foot injury. Haynes, who has been impressive this season with over eight hundred and fifty rushing yards and ten touchdowns, will be sorely missed against an Ohio State defense that has been incredibly stingy.
Backup running back Jordan Marshall is expected to play, despite sitting out last weeks game against Maryland to rest a shoulder injury. Marshall, an Ohio native, has expressed how much this game means to him. If hes unable to play, Bryson Kuzdzal, who stepped up last week against Maryland, will likely take on a heavier workload.
The Wolverines will need all hands on deck for this pivotal game, and the running back situation remains a key storyline as they prepare to face their rivals.
