Yes, Michigan lost the first 17 minutes against Northwestern. The film shows an impressive, albeit grinding performance over the final 43.

Let’s take a quick peek at the Maize n Brew Slack chat.

Recent history shows needing a comeback to beat Northwestern in Evanston doesn’t spell doom for the rest of the season.

The stats tell of a dominating effort in the final 43 minutes. When the Wildcats seized a 17-0 lead near the start of the second quarter, the Wolverines trailed 145-21 in total yardage. Over the next three quarters, Michigan out-gained Northwestern 355-57 and scored 20 unanswered points.

The film relays the same message: Jim Harbaugh’s offense slowly pounded the home team, while the defense suffocated offensive coordinator Mick McCall’s attack.
