Michigan looks to bounce back vs Air Force

Posted: 09.10.2012 at 2:49 PM

ANN ARBOR, MICH. (AP) -- Michigan running back Fitzgerald Toussaint has been cleared to play after a one-game suspension for pleading guilty to drunken driving

The 19th-ranked Wolverines are expected to have Toussaint in the starting lineup Saturday in their home opener against Air Force.

He should help college football's winningest program bounce back from a humbling loss. Michigan started the season ranked No. 8 and plummeted in the poll after a humbling 41-14 loss to Alabama.

The Falcons will be shooting to snap a 19-game losing streak against teams ranked in The Associated Press college football poll. They beat Idaho State 49-21 in their opener last week with Cody Getz running for 218 yards and three touchdowns in his first career start.
