Michigan’s Defense Rising, Offense Struggling | Michigan Wolverines Football News

Michigan football is back in the College Football Playoff conversation after a shaky start, bouncing back with gritty wins over Western Michigan and Oklahoma. Their defense has emerged as the real story — holding Oklahoma to just 189 passing yards and snagging a crucial late interception — while key pass rushers like Daley and Moore return from injury, and Meadows could add more pressure. But the offense remains a glaring concern, scoring under 17 points per game and struggling to find consistency despite talented receivers. With a brutal schedule ahead and injuries plaguing the line, the Wolverines need to find offensive rhythm before conference play. Their next test? A tune-up against UTEP this Saturday — a chance to build confidence and fix kinks before facing Iowa, Penn State, Oregon, and Ohio State.
