Michigan is turning some heads in its Big Ten opener. It’s not just that the Wolverines notched an early double-digit lead on No. 11 USC, but how they got there.

Sherrone Moore’s team is giving Lincoln Riley’s USC squad a rude welcome to the B1G. Michigan is going ground and pound, and the USC defense can’t stop the Wolverines.

In the 1st half, Michigan ran the ball 27 times for 199 yards and 2 touchdowns. Highlights include Kalel Mullings’ 53-yard touchdown rush and Donovan Edwards’ 41-yard score.

The spectacular half for the Wolverines on the ground has fans and media members talking. Some are realizing that Michigan is probably better than it looked against Texas. For Riley’s squad, the Trojans have a lot to figure out for the 2nd half Saturday and the rest of the way in its first B1G season.

Here’s a sample of what’s being said on social media:

Michigan leads 14-3 at the half. The game is airing on CBS.
