One question I'll be asking on tomorrow's podcast

This was my take at the half but I was 8 or 9 beers in in the concourse.RaceBannon said:Take away 4 or 5 or 6 long runs and the defense shut Michigan down
But seriously at 10-17 at the half I texted @iDawg and said we survived and we own the 2nd half. For Michigan to be at 20 points late in the third after giving up 17 on the first three possessions was right on schedule. USC worked them over far worse but the offense scored at will against the USC defense
The O did all the little things that losers do last night. Frustrating but Michigan pays their players too -
17-10 at Half with ball coming out felt like KDB drew it up that way. The pick on the first play felt ominous but the D did what was needed for us to live to fight another series.haie said:

Thought the Joe Moore OL would make adjustments at half to clean up the pocket, Huff failed miserably.
Dogshit execution in the second half was pretty stunning to behold, didn’t see it coming at all. -

Adidas and UW dropped the ball in promoting the event. Adidas should have put a full court press on especially @ fan fest. Seeing the sploosh on some UW swag made me want to vomit, I know it’s contracted for the Cfp, still, how adidas didn’t flood the market is beyond me.

This and I pretty much was resigned to losing by the end of the 3rd. They needed to draw even before the 4th quarter.

I'm not gonna throw all the offensive woes Grubb's way. There were a lot of plays to be had and Penix missed them. He hits one or two of them, and it could be a different game altogether.
-
Penix didn't get his reads down well and missed, threw behind, and over/under threw wide-open receivers all night long.
He also couldn't get the ball out quick enough to make MI's aggressive pass rushers pay. It was obvious midway through the first quarter that long drop-back passes were not going to win that game.
Again, where was the "attack the defense" mentality last night? Instead I saw a lot of hesitance and fear.
