1. Offense vs Arkansas StateStarts at 1:00
This game was functionally over [aghhhhh] at halftime. Davis Warren throws three interceptions, two are just horrible (his arm gets hit on the other), now what. Michigan self-sabotaged on wide receiver recruiting with how they run their offense the last few years and we’re seeing the consequences of that now. We still haven’t seen Michigan use Donovan Edwards outside, the staff just isn’t maximizing the strengths of the players. The run game feels different with Mullings in at running back. A full Orji offense would be expensive to install but do they bring him in with last year’s offense now? When will the coaches listen to the blogger offenses?? It’s tough to evaluate the offensive line against Arkansas State but they looked less confused this week.
[The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]
2. Defense vs Arkansas StateStarts at 40:02
Not much to say, Michigan dominated at the line of scrimmage which was expected. Rayshaun Benny played a great game, especially containing the quarterback. Jyaire Hill had an up and down game but broke up a slant really well, a nice bounce back after the Texas game. Martindale backed off from the funky blitzes in this game, there wasn't really anything exotic. Penalties on defense kept drives alive but this ref crew is a bit ticky tacky on penalties.
3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special TeamsStarts at 57:41
Takes hotter than Michigan Stadium on Saturday. Butch Jones, why are you still signaling games from the sidelines? The football gods punished Arkansas State for kicking on 4th and 1 (you should still get points off doinks). Arkansas State punter, hello. There were zero punt returns and one kick return.
4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie MacStarts at 1:22:23
Indiana 42, UCLA 13
Congrats, Jamie. This is Indiana's biggest win against a power [4][5] since?? This was not a fluke, this was a complete beatdown. Part of this was that UCLA is not good but still, Indiana is doing a lot of good things. Indiana may never play in the Rose Bowl but they can play at the Rose Bowl!
Nebraska 34, Northern Iowa 3
Nebraska scored touchdowns on their first three drives against an FCS team that has given teams fits.
Northwestern 31, Eastern Illinois 7
This one was close for about a half. Northwestern just doesn't have much offense. Cheers to the weird stadium games.
Michigan State 40, Prairie View A&M 0
Injuries are already starting to pile up for MSU, keep an eye on that.
Minnesota 27, Nevada 0
This looks like a rock bottom version of Nevada.
Illinois 30, Central Michigan 9
The score is bigger than how close this was, it may have been a hangover game for Illinois. There was a 59 yard field goal in this game!
Oregon 49, Oregon State 14
Oregon got healthy in a hurry and they looked fully operational. The odds of Michigan winning a rock fight against the Ducks just went down.
Purdue 7, Notre Dame 66
This was the worst loss in Purdue football history. They did average 47 yards of punting on 10 punts, though!
Alabama 42, Wisconsin 10
Wisconsin loses their starting QB to injury and the backup hurt his hand. They did stick around in this game for a little bit at least.
Maryland 27, Virginia 13
A nice bounce back after losing to Michigan State last week. Total yardage was fairly even but Virginia turned the ball over four times.
Iowa 38, Troy 21
This was close until the very end. Iowa gives up a punt return touchdown. Iowa, if you're not punting to win, what are you doing? Folks aren't thrilled with how Cade is playing.
Washington State 24, Washington 19
Wazzu's coach said they're never giving the Apple Cup trophy back! Michigan may have taken a step back but look at Washington, this does happen.
