Things Discussed: Maryland Game: JJ looked very off, felt like a Lloyd Carr game with the playcalling. Pressure: Either Michigan got two guys free or zero. Very vanilla. Maryland moved the ball underneath two-deep with well-planned RPOs. Frightening thing was Wallace and Johnson getting beat, Wallace even when they had a cushion. Saw them go with McBurrows at nickel and Sainristil at corner because of it. Maryland run game is like OSU's: stretch and counter. Michigan mostly shut it down with their light boxes. Best defensive line ever? Deepest certainly. Barnhart vs Jones? Think Jones acquitted himself well, showed he can play. Might be closer at RT than we think. JJ vs Ohio State: is that the game? Brian/Craig think it's a defensive struggle. Seth/Sam thing JJ will go out and win it. Missed Harbaugh wrt McCarthy: former QB who normally chats with JJ after every drive. Saw them move away from JJ after his breakdowns at the end of the 1st half, want the ball in his hands. Ohio
Things Discussed: Reasons to respect MSU? Katin Houser vs Noah Kim: When Houser throws back-breaking interceptions Rutgers decides to drop them. IU after review: Michigan's running tweaks to their Duo game that makes it really hard to prepare for. McCarthy is readying defenses very very well. Penn State-Ohio State: rock fight. [Hit the JUMP for the player, and video and stuff]
Things Discussed: Brian's serve game. Michigan seems like they can hit another gear. Outside zone: Michigan thinks they can get away playing 2 DTs + 1 LB vs 4 blockers and an RB because the DTs are that good. Maybe they're right and #75 for Minnesota is just good at run blocking. Sam: You can't play your NT at 2i like that. But Michigan is going to play those games inside because they are going to have their edges outside. JJ: So cool. Loved the re-Mike on the Loveland TD. Sam: he got Loveland a touchdown because he almost got him killed earlier. Mason OMG Graham. We do the Chris Farley thing for awhile. Pick Six: Johnson and Moore sold Cover 3 Sam notes they were in Quarters coverage. The one TD: Sam agrees it was –1 for Sainristil and –1 for Sabb. But note the only catch when Minnesota was on offense after that was Sabb's. Hoosiers: Have some players on defense, have a terrible quarterback but we like scatback Jaylin Lucas and go-get-it WR Cam Camper. Hockey t
Things Discussed: Offense vs Rutgers: Double SZ returns, that's going to work well with Arc. Zone reads add an outside threat to Duo. Defense vs Rutgers: Missed Mason Graham: his absence nerfs Grant; Goode and Benny are decent players but opposites and can't play together. Rutgers thought they could Iso Barrett and he was was awesome. Harrell's been awesome, Stewart has to stop giving up edges. What's so sad about that Rutgers TD is McGregor was dropping back into that slant. Nebraska's defense: After seeing Colorado's OL it's an ain't played nobody situation. Colorado had answers for all the things Nebraska was doing. Michigan is going to have to gameplan for them though because they like to play Rock, Paper, Scissors. Loveland is the difference in this game: they have nobody who can match up with him. Is Nebraska's defense like TCU? Different: Nebraska's LBs are fast and small; TCU's LBs were slow but thicc. They're very &qu
