Michigan will be without starting right tackle Blake Frazier and edge Dom Nichols for the upcoming game against defending national champion Indiana.
The Wolverines’ (4-2, 1-2 Big Ten) face the Hoosiers (6-2, 3-1) on Saturday, Oct. 24, noon at Michigan Stadium. Indiana does not have a player on the availability report released by the Big Ten two hours before kickoff.
Safety and three-time captain Rod Moore, who appeared to suffer a lower-leg injury in the third quarter against Penn State last weekend, and defensive tackle Enow Etta, who had a fumble recovery against Penn State, are listed as game-time decisions. Also out are receiver Kendrick Bell and tight end Mason Bonner.

Offensive tackle Andrew Babalola, who was cleared to practice last week, was listed as “probable” on the first three availability reports released this week but appears to be available for the Indiana game. Babalola suffered a season-ending knee injury during the 2025 preseason camp and has not yet played this season.
Tight end Zack Marshall is listed as “out” for the second straight game. Michigan head coach Kyle Whittingham said his absence last week was for a “non-injury” situation. Marshall’s text messages critical of offensive coordinator Jason Beck were leaked earlier this month after a loss at Minnesota.
