Ann Arbor — What went wrong for Michigan’s defense against Ohio State in the 62-39 loss at the end of last season was, quite simply, everything.
It haunts defensive coordinator Don Brown, and safeties coach Chris Partridge said he still tastes the blood from that knockout punch in Columbus that snapped Michigan's 10-game winning streak and a shot at the Big Ten championship game.
Cornerbacks coach Mike Zordich said Tuesday before practice the loss lingered with him, and he can only point to lack of execution by the defensive backs for so much of what transpired.
