lol no they won't.
they should be
no sense getting someone injured vs Purdue

if they're up by 14 after the first quarter, run the ball with a back up and let some other reserves get some snaps

baloney. these guys want to win the B1G back to back. Something no Michigan squad has done since 2003-2004.

The sitting out thing is going to be a thing, already is obviously.
it 100% is. for meaningless bowl games. 

you don't really see guys sitting out for conference championship games and in the playoff. winning your conference is a big deal. so is playing in the playoff for a national title. i can't recall guys sitting out for either of those yet. i do recall lot of future nfl draft picks sitting out of all the other meaningless bowl games though.

I think Michigan and Georgia might try and rest players who are a bit dinged up who would otherwise play the full game.  A better idea is to get ahead 28-3 and rest'em then.

if it was a regular season game it'd be an Illinois repeat where they sat half their starters and vanilla'd it out to a squeeker win. 

it's not a regular season game. they want to win the B1G. Badly. winning the conference is a huge deal. winning a regular season game is not.
