All’s well in Ann Arbor heading into the bye week. Michigan football is undefeated and firmly cemented at number four in the polls behind a terrifying defense and an offense that’s averaging an even fifty points a game after putting up a number against Rutgers that’s best written down on a legal pad and slid face down across a table.
It feels safe to say that the defense is the best since the ’97 squad (the best defense in program history), but the offense is a little more mysterious.
The running backs are slowly working out a rotation that can balance speed and power; the wide receivers and tight ends are chugging along behind expected quality performances and some pleasant surprises; the offensive line is playing about as well as expected.
