Michigan-MSU recap: What went wrong for the Wolverines, and what's next?

In this episode, we look at the ups and downs of the Michigan football team's 37-33 loss at then-No. 8 Michigan State, and what's next for the Wolverines. In the first half of the episode, we look at Michigan's offensive performance. We discuss the Wolverines' breakout passing game, the significance of the ascensions of Andrel Anthony and Erick All, how worrisome Michigan's run blocking and lack of run game was and what changes the Wolverines can make in the red zone. In the back half of the episode, we turn our attention to Michigan's defense. We discuss the Wolverines' inability to stop Kenneth Walker III, Michigan's largely preventable issues with defensive substitutions, the Wolverines' failures on some key defining plays and an overall decent day from Michigan's secondary. We close with a discussion of the Wolverines' culture, and how we expect Michigan to respond after enduring its first loss of the season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
