Michigan lost by 23.
Gentry drop gets 3 instead of 7 and leads to two ill-fated two point attempts (-6 points)
Patterson INT (-7 points)
Milton INT (-7 points)
Punt block (-7 points)
Four plays cost UM the game.
NB. Even if you want to normalize for the tOSU muff, that's a one-point game. Normalize for the knee at the end, it's a one-touchdown loss.
This may not be the analysis that everyone embraces, but it's better than K Waker conspiracy theories and locker room discord speculation. IMO, it's also better than trashing simply trashing the game plan on both sides of the ball. Don't get me wrong, some trashing is fully appropriate because they were major factors in the loss, but it's worth bearing in mind that the runaway result was largely due to four plays .
