Pregame observations, updates from The Big House: Michigan vs. Purdue

Semaj Morgan at punt returner

Semaj Morgan has struggled in different facets this season but appears to be the team’s punt returner again tonight. He has been all season except for on a couple occasions, including on one rep in the win over Michigan State last week. He took the final punt of warmups before the team went up the tunnel for the final time before kickoff.

Notes from Michigan team warmups

• TJ Guy and Derrick Moore took first-team snaps at EDGE. Jaishawn Barham wasn’t in with the starters, but he is dressed and not on the availability report.
• Jordan Marshall is in the starting lineup with Justice Haynes out.
• Michigan’s tight ends for the first snap were Max Bredeson and Marlin Klein.
• The starting linebackers are Troy Bowles and Ernest Hausmann.
