ORLANDO, Fla. — Michigan football will be shorthanded in the Citrus Bowl, as expected, following a series of player opt-outs and injuries. Edge rusher Derrick Moore, linebacker Jaishawn Barham and offensive lineman Giovanni El-Hadi are all skipping Wednesday’s game against Texas (3 p.m., ABC) to begin preparing for the NFL draft.

A devastating agricultural pest, the Mexfly attacks more than 50 types of fruits and vegetables, rendering them inedible and unmarketable, according to the USDA APHIS exotic fruit flies webpage. The invasive fly targets citrus and mango in particular.
