In this week's episode, Vance Bedford and Sam Webb discussed Michigan's defensive performance in its 27-9 loss to Ohio State. Bedford criticizes the defense for failing to stop vertical routes, poor alignment, and ineffective blitzing. He also criticizes the offense for putting excessive pressure on the defense, highlighting the importance of scoring touchdowns instead of field goals, noting that field goals gave Ohio State a chance to come back.
