Michigan's John O'Korn on Penn State game: Nobody is really giving us a chance
Michigan is the team that’s won the last three head-to-head match-ups with Penn State, including a 49-10 drubbing just a season ago. But it’s the Nittany Lions who everyone is picking to win this weekend’s contest.
Even Wolverines quarterback John O’Korn knows that.
On Monday, Michigan players met with the media to talk about the win over Indiana last Saturday, as well as the upcoming bout against Penn State in Happy Valley. O’Korn, who has taken over starting duties after the injury to Wilton Speight suffered a few weeks ago, was asked about his mindset heading into the showdown of B1G powers.
The quarterback kept his answer pretty simple.

Not many outside of Ann Arbor are giving the Wolverines much of a chance. Vegas already has the Nittany Lions favored by 10 points in the game.
This weekend’s game features a pair of top 25 teams that are battling for positioning in the B1G East. Penn State sits at 6-0 (3-0 B1G) while Michigan comes in at 5-1 (2-1 B1G).
College GameDay will be in State College this weekend. The clash between Penn State and Michigan is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET and will air on ABC.
