Patterson leads No. 12 Michigan past Indiana 39-14

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Shea Patterson needed almost two full seasons to find his groove at Michigan. Now, he's hard to beat. Patterson threw for 366 yards and five touchdowns, leading the 12th-ranked Wolverines to their fourth straight victory -- 39-14 over Indiana on Saturday. "We're riding him," Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh said. "His play has just been outstanding and he's really seeing the field well. He's taking care of the football at all times and really playing good, disciplined football." Over the past two weeks, Patterson has thrown nine touchdowns passes. Over the last three games, he has 12 touchdown passes and one interception. And the resurgent Wolverines (9-2, 6-2 Big Ten) are making it look easy, too. They've won seven of eight, the last four by margins of 25 or more, and extended their winning streak over the Hoosiers to 24 games.
