Our OC began this drive by rolling the QB to the right.

He then never does it again.

We need to move the damn pocket! We need to put pressure on running east and west. They basically stunt to blow up our middle

Hoping we get second half Bama. I say it every time but it kills me Jalen doesn't work on his running, especially in the open field.

Why isn’t Milroe looking at dump offs? On all of the last 3 deep passes the backfield men were wide damn open.


That’s what he’s done all year. He needs to quit looking for the home-run and worry about moving the chains.

1 called QB run and that was on 3rd and 15

What would it take to get Rees to use milroes legs because clearly a playoff game isnt enough.

We need designed qb runs on 1st down instead of playing the entire game 3rd and long after first down sack

This is peewee ball folks. Rees not impressive at all. We have nothing ready for hot routes after all this time off ? Wow

This. He’s just not there in his development. The play calling hasn’t helped but he has got to start recognizing where pressure is coming from or we’re done

It does. The thing that keeps me up is that they are throwing everything at us. If we can adjust we have the higher ceiling. Just find a way.

No adjustment to the blitz on 3rd... They showed it... We did nothing It’s like Jalen didn’t even know they overloaded the right side.


In all honestly the sideline didn’t call for a timeout either.

To be fair to Kirby, he did not have an elite pass rushing D line, very little pressure all year

This game feels so weird because during the Saban era, outside of 2014 Ohio St, the Big Ten has been our whipping boy.

We’ve dominated the trenches, ran all over them, stuff the run, been faster, etc

This is the first time it feels like they have the advantage

I’m still not doubting this team, just saying it feels weird to be dominated by the yanks for the first time in 16 years

We need more on offense than just drop back pass or handoff. It’s so basic. Even with a electric runner at QB we still keep it so vanilla.

Michigan is making our defenders make decisions. Our offense is allowing Michigan to just play straight up.

Literally means nothing. This Michigan team would destroy that Michigan team, and one could argue that Bama team would beat this one too.

That said, if we can make some adjustments and force them to have to throw to receivers (not guys up against our LBs), we can win this.

Our Offense will have to get more dynamic though and get ready to beat their blitz. Think they got 2 sacks rushing 4, so they stopped blitzing and gave us time for those deep passes. The very next blitz, we get sacked again. They’re going to blitz heavily in the 2nd half unless they start getting home again with 4 (which I think our OL is doing ok against 4 man rush).

He fricking said at his media day that he came here to throw. He has a real phobia about being labeled a runner. Its maddening... as if the dude never seen a mobile QB in the nfl

Give them credit. They are good on the lines. And have good upper classmen. It makes a difference sometimes.

This team usually only has one good half of football in them. We need it in the second half.
