ANN ARBOR, MICH. (AP) -- Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez plans to start quarterback Steven Threet against Notre Dame and expects Nick Sheridan to play.

Rodriguez said Monday the rotation would be similar to what it was in the win over Miami of Ohio, when Threet began the game and shared snaps with Sheridan, who was the No. 1 QB in the season-opening loss to Utah.

Sheridan, a former walk-on, has completed 15 of 24 passes for 138 yards with a touchdown and an interception.

Threet, a Georgia Tech transfer, has connected on just 14 of 32 attempts for 132 yards and a score. He also has a rushing TD.

The Wolverines (1-1) have scored a Big Ten-low 39 points entering their first road game against the Fighting Irish.
