Coming off a Bye Week, the Wolverines played the 500th game in the Big House against #9 Wisconsin at home in Ann Arbor in their first contest against another Big Ten Conference school of the season. The Badgers missed a field goal in the first quarter but later scored on two field goals. Scoring one touchdown and two field goals in the second quarter, Wisconsin finished the half with a 19-0 lead. The Wolverines gave up 5 fumbles and threw 2 interceptions in the first half. They turned things around in the second half though. First they scored a touchdown in the third quarter, finally getting on the board. Then the Wolverines scored 3 touchdowns in the fourth quarter, one on an interception that was ran all the way back. They failed to complete a 2 point conversion, however. Near the end of the game, the Badgers were down 27-19 with a little over 5 minutes to go. On their second to last drive, a sack resulted in a fumble. Managing to get a series of big passes, the Badgers scored a touchdown and went for the two point conversion. Their initial attempt was thwarted by an Ineligible Receiver penalty, then the Badgers quarterback overthrew the ball and the team was unable to regain possession with an onside kick. ESPN said it was the 2nd biggest comeback for Michigan in the history of the school.

Stylidium divergens

Stylidium divergens is a dicotyledonous plant that belongs to the genus Stylidium (family Stylidiaceae) that was described as a new species in 2000. The specific epithet divergens means diverging or separating, referring to the widely spreading posterior petals. It is an erect annual plant that grows from 7 to 27 cm tall. Obovate, orbicular, or elliptical leaves, about 2-6 per plant, form a basal rosette. The leaves are generally 4-21 mm long and 3-5 mm wide. This species generally has one to six scapes and cymose inflorescences that are 4-24 cm long. Flowers are white or mauve. S. divergens is endemic to Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory of Australia. Its typical habitats are sandstone slopes and gullies. It flowers in the southern hemisphere in April. S. divergens is most closely related to S. accedens.[1]
