Michigan lined up in a 10-man centipede formation again

Jim Harbaugh is unique. And this formation Harbaugh had Michigan stand in is, well, unique:
That right there is what we call the Wolverine Centipede. Michigans coaches dont call it that -- they call it trains but were not Michigans coaches.
Of course, they didnt run a play out of that formation. That would be highly illegal, as the rulebook states you have to have seven players on the line of scrimmage, and this formation has one. It was just a bit of pre-snap confusion....
So to make the Badgers think a little harder than they needed to, the Wolverines lined up in a way that doesnt resemble any football formation. What were they going to do? Are they going to play leapfrog? Snap the ball to guy who snaps the ball to a guy who snaps the ball to a guy who snaps the ball to an RB with nine fullbacks ahead of him?
