Berger and Dike might be the missing links for this offense. I am excite ( even though this is the worst Michigan team I've ever seen)

Straight handoff on 3rd and 5? Right after the turnover is reversed why not be aggressive and take more wind out of their sails?

 

The rest of this game is just a formality. No need to empty any more of the playbook on Toledo State or whoever this is.

That is how you lose games. Play until the clock says zero.

Honestly, I think they intended to run the clock down on that drive with the hope of going into the half, and Michigan just kept giving up first downs. A near miss on the Davis near fumble was a reminder that they had a lot to lose there.

They were at the 40 with a minute left. If they’re on their own 20 I get it, once you get close to mid field you keep your foot on the gas. Doesn’t have to be anything exotic, but that’s an odd place for a run.

Giving them the ball near midfield with them also getting the ball after the half would have been one of the only ways to allow them back into the game quickly. I absolutely understand why they ate it there.

Punting from the opponents 38 on 4th and 3. Sigh
