Shaw discusses Cade McNamara's strong first half and brutal second half, and whether it's time to re-open the quarterback competition. He opines why J.J. McCarthy has been capable of closing the gap with McNamara in the last month, and why Michigan should consider letting there be a competition this week in practice and an increased effort to get McCarthy involved.He then takes a look at play-calling, a lack of outside runs and hypothesizes why the Wolverines struggled to move the football in the second half of the game. In the second half of the show, Shaw takes a look at how much of the result was due to Rutgers' improvements vs. Michigan's own issues. He closes with a discussion on if the Wolverines played a better game than fans are giving them credit for.
