Air Force @ Michigan, Noon, Saturday, 9/16, BTN, Stream BTN2Go

Agreed. The issue has been that the AF d is playing well and the UM o can't finish.

[Hannibal]

Speight had plenty of time to throw again vs a blitz and ate a loss rather than throw it.

And Matt Millen called it a Smart Play. LOL what a fucking dumbshit.

[JRB]

What a mess.

[Hannibal]

Why do we never throw a screen pass? Do we have any in the fucking playbook at all?

[Kstat]

Because odds are 50/50 it sails over the head of the RB and into a LBs hands.

They don't call anything remotely creative. The WR screens are safe because if it goes high no one is catching it.

[WM Wolverine]

Way too conservative, can't play it even safer.

[paul daugherity]

So we've all identified the problems. What are the fixes, if any, that can be made this season?

[Da Geezer]

Typical shitty game against Air Force. We're only going to get the ball 9 times today. Air Force had an 11 play drive earlier that covered less than 30 yards.

This shitfest is Dave Brandon's shitty parting gift to us.

totally true. Washington proved last year that strength of schedule is irrelevant. We should be playing Cupcake and East Cupcake for our first two home games. Scheduling Florida at a neutral site was silly too. It happened to work out, but that doesn't make it right.

[Cody_Russell]

M has only had five possessions too.
3 FGs, 1 fumble, and 1 punt.

Not really an issue moving the ball. They don't execute when it matters... Speight has missed a few passes... or Isaac had that bad run when he hesitated on 3rd and short.

Funny, all the experts here haven't mentioned the OL once. We need to start charging for analysis given here, make it a premium board.

Air Force isn't a cupcake game? Seriously?

Their 1921 offense has 91 total yards. This is a game because Michigan wouldn't be able to score against a community college.

Well when the QB has the footspeed of dan Marino without the arm of dan Marino, it's easy to blitz on every other down...

O line hasn't been great but not many lines would be against 9-man fronts.

[WM Wolverine]

Subscription service it is, how much a month for this amazing football analysis?

[The Oracle]

I'd say, a case of beer per month works. I'll collect.

[Hannibal]

The OL has been more than adequate today.
