If Chop Robinson is fully healthy it could be an issue for Michigan's offense.  Michigan LT Henderson looked not too great against Purdue.

Henderson wasn’t that bad. 

Purdue played a funky defense with 5 man on the los and blitzed frequently and did a great job of mixing up zone and man coverages. I don’t like Walters at all but he’s a damn good defensive coach.

Wasn't confident going into this game, but with the Harbaugh news I feel like there is no way Penn State wins this game, as the Wolverines rally around the flag

Michigan had zero pass attempts in the second half. ZERO! I get beating them with the running game, but zero? There was one that was canceled out by penalty, but man, zero is a crazy game plan

And these are probably the two highest rated Big Ten QBs by NFL scouts?  They'd probably both be backups at half the Pac 12 schools

I was screaming at the tv in real time, but in retrospect Moore was right. Dude calculated correctly that there was no way that Penn State was scoring more than 17 points with that booty cheeks offense and Allar at QB. ONLY way that Penn State could've possibly won that game is if Michigan blew it and lost it. A pick 6 INT or sack/fumble scoop and score or a disastrous special teams play for Michigan was literally the only way Penn State could've won that game.

He ran the piss out of the ball, chewed clock, played field position game and tried to minimize mistakes and Michigan was basically guaranteed a victory because of that. Why take risks when you don't have to?

that's a good joke, but I think he guessed- correctly I might add- that Penn State and Allar were so bad on offense that they max they'd score was about 17 and the only way that Michigan would lose that game was if they lost by having disastrous pick 6, sack-fumble, or special teams break downs.

Moore did the right thing just running the ball and chewing clock and playing the field position game and trying to minimize mistakes in the 2nd half.

Nah. McCarthy is quite good. Allar on the other hand pretty much sucks. Hackenberg clone. Big lumbering kid that isn't athletic and moves as fluid as I'd imagine that two retards f**cking do. Wind up, long delivery, huge arm but can't hit the broadside of the barn accurately. He's legitimately terrible.

Not sure how we get there from a game JJ didn’t throw the ball in the final 37 minutes of the game. 

id also argue the PAC 12 has some of the worst defenses in all of college football and I’m betting many of their qbs look mediocre against a PSU defense

Why would Michigan not throw the ball at all in the second half?  Very curious, I’ve never seen that before even back with Bo’s teams.  If Michigan wanted to pound the ball you’d think they’d throw a pass every now and then to keep the D honest.
