Several Michigan starters, including three offensive linemen, are listed as questionable for the upcoming game against defending national champion Indiana.
Center Jake Guarnera, right guard Brady Norton and right tackle Blake Frazier are among seven players considered questionable for the Wolverines’ (4-2, 1-2 Big Ten) game against the Hoosiers (6-2, 3-1) on Saturday, Oct. 24 at Michigan Stadium. The Big Ten’s first availability report was released Wednesday night, Oct. 21. Indiana did not have anyone listed on the report.
Guarnera was a game-time decision for last weekend’s game against Penn State but played the entire game. Norton did not play and was replaced by Avery Gach.

Safety and three-time captain Rod Moore, who appeared to suffer a lower-leg injury in the third quarter against Penn State last weekend, also is listed as questionable, as is edge Dom Nichols, who has appeared on this list each of the last three weeks but has played. Linebacker Aisea Moa and defensive tackle Enow Etta, who had a fumble recovery against Penn State, are included on the list.
Offensive tackle Andrew Babalola, who was cleared to practice last week, is considered “probable”. Babalola suffered a season-ending knee injury during the 2025 preseason camp and has not yet played this season.
Among the players out are right tackle Andrew Sprague, who played the first two games before being sidelined with an undisclosed injury. Also out are receiver Kendrick Bell and tight end Mason Bonner.
