ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Michigan lined up in quite a formation in the first quarter of the Wisconsin on Saturday. Emphasis on “lined up.” 

The Wolverines lined up 10 guys in a straight line with Wilton Speight to the side late in the first quarter.

From there, Michigan went into a power formation and De'Veon Smith ran five yards to the one-yard line. 

That spiced up a scoreless first quarter in a Top 10 showdown, and the Wolverines scored on the first play of the second quarter.
