The fact that Maurice has a history of injuries should be a concern. Same can be said of the LB's at UM, so it basically comes down to who is healthier.

That first part doesn't really make sense to me...If Michigan outplayed OSU and lost how does that make Michigan a better team? or are you saying that Ohio State is a better team?
Maurice doesn't have a history of injuries. He had a "stinger" last year in his one of his shoulders (can't remember which) but he still ran for 1200 yards! He missed half the season ran for that many yards and that should be a concern? He'll probably be fitted with some more padding on that shoulder until he feels comfortable running without. But I don't think the shoulder couuld be labeled a concern. All of the Offensive Line is returning so there isn't gonna be a shortage of holes he can run threw. It's basically how well will the passing game be this year to balance out the offense.
As for the LB's at UM I don't really know there condition, so I won't make a comment and look like an ass.
