  "account": "Michigan's offensive line faces a shortage as the team prepares for their Week 7 matchup against Penn State. Coach Kyle Whittingham revealed that three Andrews − Marsh, Sprague, and Babalola − will be dealing with injuries during the game. Sprague will be out for multiple weeks, while Marsh and Babalola's recovery timelines remain uncertain. Sprague's injury resulted in a season-long absence, leaving U-M's offensive line already thin. However, Babalola is expected to return to practice on Monday after a torn ACL suffered in August 2025. Michigan will likely stick with Bryce Underwood and Jason Beck as their primary quarterbacks, but they might consider calling upon Tommy Carr for specific packages if needed.",
