Michigan Offensively 29th; Defensively 29th as well Overall 29th not surprisingly.
(Scoring, yards per play, play success rate; turnovers; scoring in red zone; and other factors in this ranking)
Northwestern Offensively 100th Defensively 66th Overall 83rd
Northwestern moves the ball by passing short. Michigan is a beast so far against the short pass game. Yes dumb uneducated haters, even against the 8 slant plays that were successful so far this season. All 8. Every single one of the whopping 8 slants. We held at bay.
Road games are always giving an element of “anything is possible”, but these two teams are at opposite ends of the spectrum. One is ascending on both sides of the ball. The other sinking every week.
I’d expect about a 15-25 point victory if the chalk doesn’t get erased off the data board....
