Michigan’s defense bends but doesn’t break in win vs. Rutgers

It was tested until the final couple minutes in Saturday’s 20-13 victory over Rutgers at Michigan Stadium. With the Wolverines’ offense scuffling in the second half, the Scarlet Knights had seized momentum, cutting a 20-3 halftime deficit to 20-13 with 14:09 remaining. Rutgers had three more possessions to trim into Michigan’s lead but came away empty on all three. Rutgers took advantage of a seemingly tired Michigan defense, slashing and dashing its way down field primarily on the ground. Two I can think of, one right before the half and the other one in the second half.

Nigeria-born, Scotland-raised, Michigan football LB continues remarkable rise

A Blair student one year older, Odafe Jayson Oweh, also of Nigerian descent, had just made a switch from hoops to football. Like Oweh, Ojabo “was also tall and strong and a freak athlete,” according to Saylor, who spoke to MLive via phone this week. Forgot not having played football; Ojabo had barely watched it on TV. Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh was asked this week about coaching players with limited football experience. In addition to Ojabo, Michigan has defensive lineman Julius Welschof, a former skier from Germany who didn’t start playing football until high school.

Michigan’s new-look defense: Different fronts, disguises in Week 1

Chaos reigned supreme on Saturday in Michigan’s 47-14 win over Western Michigan, a game in which the Wolverines flashed multiple different looks, fronts and coverages under their first-year defensive coordinator. “We needed to show some different looks; we needed to disguise some coverages. With Macdonald, a former assistant coach with the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens, disguises and different looks were the name of the game. Instead, Michigan now has to worry about opponents over the middle — an area Western Michigan took advantage of early. Western Michigan had very little film to work with ahead of time — giving Michigan an inherent advantage with its defense.

Michigan football pregame: Zak Zinter not starting along offensive line?

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — The scene outside Michigan Stadium reminds me of years past. Inside the stadium, Michigan’s football team has taken the field. There have been rumors about banged up players along the offensive line, which would explain why the coaching staff has remained so coy about starters. Zak Zinter was in uniform and present early on wit ha club on his right hand, leaving in doubt his eligibility. Look for Ojabo and Taylor Upshaw to split time there; Michigan is going to do everything it can to deploy Hutchinson.

Defensive line could make or break Michigan football season against quarterback-loaded schedule

Unfortunately, the defensive line wasn’t a strength for Michigan a year ago. Even though the schedule is shorter this season, Michigan won’t avoid the best quarterbacks in the Big Ten. Look no further than the 2019 recruiting class to find the X-factors for this defensive line. Beyond Hinton and Smith, the rest of the defensive line depth is hard to project. Beyond Hutchinson and Paye, the defensive line could very well be a weakness for Michigan, and that would be a crippling blow to a young defense.
