<h3>Hart, Henne back for Michigan-Michigan State game</h3>

No. 15 Michigan (7-2) at Michigan State (5-4) 3:30 pm EDT

EAST LANSING, Michigan (Ticker) -- Michigan coach Lloyd Carrcould afford to rest Mike Hart and Chad Henne against Minnesota.He cannot do likewise this week.


Senior stars Hart and Henne are expected to return from injuriesthis week at the 15th-ranked Wolverines visit dangerous rivalMichigan State for a Big Ten Conference matchup on Saturday.

The Wolverines played without running back Hart (high rightankle sprain) and quarterback Henne (apparent separated rightshoulder) last week but nevertheless pulled away from Minnesotaat home, 34-10.


Freshman Ryan Mallett filled in for Henne and threw for aseason-high 233 yards and a touchdown - a 40-yard pass to MarioManningham, who set a career high with 162 yards on fivecatches.


With Hart out for a second straight week, sophomores CarlosBrown and Brandon Minor combined for 289 yards and three TDs.

Although Michigan (7-2, 5-0 Big Ten) won comfortably afterfalling behind 10-0, the Wolverines will need Hart's and Henne'sleadership to win on the road against the Spartans and remainunbeaten in conference play.


The Spartans (5-4, 1-4) have lost four of five and are in 10thplace in the 11-team conference, but they always get fired up toplay the Wolverines and could make a statement for first-yearcoach Mark Dantonio with a victory here.


Michigan has won five straight meetings but needed at least oneovertime period to beat Michigan State in both 2004 and 2005.

Two years ago, the Wolverines escaped East Lansing with a 34-31overtime triumph.


The Spartans were involved in another overtime contest lastweek, coming up short at Iowa, 34-27.


Jehuu Caulcrick rushed for three TDs and Brian Hoyer passed for308 yards for Michigan State, which held a 17-3 halftime lead.
