Michigan will reportedly be without one All-American on Saturday. Again.
Cornerback Jourdan Lewis will miss his second straight week with an undisclosed injury, according to MLive.com’s Nick Baumgardner:
Oh there's Lewis. He's in street clothes. Not playing today.

The Wolverines don’t figure to need Lewis to take care of UCF. Michigan is a 35-point favorite coming off a 60-point victory in the season opener against Hawaii.
Hawaii mustered just 155 passing yards with Lewis sidelined last week.
Last week, Lewis’ absence was a topic of conversation by many. ESPN’s Ed Cunningham speculated that Lewis was suspended for disciplinary reasons, which he later apologized for suggesting.
“Ed Cunningham got way out over his skis,” Harbaugh said Monday.
Still, we don’t know what Lewis is out with.
Lewis earned All-America honors last year after setting a school record for pass breakups in a season.
