Ohio State Looms Large as Michigan STRUGGLES to Find Offensive Identity | Is Upset Possible

Michigan Wolverines football sits at 7-2, but should fans be hitting the panic button? The offensive struggles are real—just one 30-point performance against a Power 4 opponent all season, with pass protection rates exceeding 50% in recent games. Isaiah Hole and Clayton Sayfie break down what's working and what's broken for Michigan heading into crucial matchups against Northwestern and Maryland before the Ohio State showdown. The defense ranks 14th nationally in stop rate, and Jordan Marshall's running game remains elite, but can the Wolverines score enough points to compete for a playoff spot? The conversation covers offensive line concerns, puzzling wide receiver personnel decisions, and why winning ugly might be Michigan's only path forward. Clayton offers his honest take on the Ohio State game, while both hosts explore what Michigan would add in a hypothetical college football trade deadline. Tune in for an unflinching analysis of Michigan Wolverines football's championship hopes and the adjustments needed in the season's final stretch. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
