Michigan hits the road for the second consecutive week as it takes on Minnesota in Minneapolis on Saturday.

As far as injuries go, Michigan is as healthy as it's been all season. Rod Moore, Will Johnson and Makari Paige — who've all been on the injury report with some consistency this season — were all omitted from the injury report this week.

Mason Graham is the only Michigan starter to appear on the report.

Graham missed the last two games for the Wolverines, but on Saturday he appeared at Huntington Bank Stadium with a club on his left hand.

The Wolverines and Golden Gophers battle for the Little Brown Jug beginning at 7:30 p.m. ET on NBC.
