from The Michigan Insider · host 247Sports, Michigan Football, Michigan Wolverines, Michigan, Michigan athletics, College Football

In this episode, Zach Shaw and Alejandro Zuniga preview the No. 15 Michigan football team's home bout with No. 1 Ohio State, and the keys for the Wolverines in the contest.  They open with a look at Michigan offense, and what it must show against the Buckeyes to pull off the upset. They discuss the Wolverines' run game, components of that phase that must stand out against Ohio State, the value of a mobile quarterback and a strong second half, the strengths of Ohio State's run defense and more. They also look at Michigan's ascending passing offense, and what it can realistically do against a high-ranking Buckeyes pass defense. They also tackle some prop bets and discuss other factors for the Wolverines. In the second half of the episode, they look at the biggest keys for Michigan's defense in the game, and the biggest challenges the Buckeyes' offense presents. They discuss Ohio State's prolific passing attack, Julian Sayin's first season as a starter, the value of a pass-rush and the concern of the Wolverines' coverage in College Park. They then take on more over-unders, and make their final score predictions for the game.
