If that was the case, Michigan wouldn't have needed to Blitz so much, they could've just relied on the Line.

@@markjones5757 they didn't blitz very often, in fact, it was third for the season.

@@brianmathisinmontana Almost every sack cam from a disguise blitz. Are you kidding?

@@markjones5757 and loads of pressures came from a four man rush with tons of teists

@brianmathisinmontana Did you watch the game? When they didn't blitz, it didn't work out in their favor the majority of the time. Again, kudos to Harbaugh for proving to everyone that he's no longer a complete idiot and finally has learned how to strategize against competitors that are much better than the ones he plays in the little 10. I think most Knew if Michigan beat Bama, they would have no problem handling Washington.

@Dolemite19 Let me start by naming all the top guys from the top shows that wasn't outrage and actually agreed with the decision. Kirk Herbstreit wasn't outrage, Stephen A Smith wasn't outrage, Skip Bayless wasn't outrage,Shannon Sharpe wasn't outrage. The people that were outrage were the minority and are still the minority. The whole state of Florida isn't even outrage. Miami fans,Florida gators fans were laughing at FSU not making it. The great Warren Sapp even said that he thought Bama deserved the spot over FSU.

RTR

One of the funniest things I've heard in 2023 for real. Laughing my ass off. Apparently Roman didn't do any deep research on Michigan. They all seem to have forgotten about the TCU game where J.J. balled out after the two pick sixes and put up 45 points. 52 if the refs call the Wilson catch a touchdown. That was a year ago. J.J.'s mechanics were wrong back then. New QB coach corrected it in the pre-season. He has completed that same pass that resulted in the pick sixes all year because of adjustments in footwork.

You got it!!! Good call!!!

Pressure has been on Michigan, nothing new

Not sure about that everyone is expecting Alabama to beat Michigan so if they don't all of the millions they've pumped into the NIL goes to waste

Yes we had a former wide receiver now a corner back and a running back who was a linebacker last year , their athletes!

Alabama doesnt have depth on defense there young

@@johnnyoldenjr. How can you say this with a straight face? We saw a first round pick in Kool-Aid go down in the SEC Title game, Trey Amos just comes right off the bench and you'd have never known he went out of the game.

​@johnnyoldenjr. Lol what? They literally moved experienced upper classmen to 2nd or 3rd string because of the freshmen talent they have

@AmericanStud1135 if a freshman took a 2nd or 3rd year player spot that means those 2nd or 3rd year players arent that good buddy. Bamas starters on defense play the whole game if they had good depth the would switch out more having depth means theres not much of a drop off when a backup comes in the game.. bama starting linebacker was out against auburn and they give up 244 coincidence i think not depth means you can switch out youre d line so they dont get gassed there whole defense has played a crazy amount of snaps.

And that animal got put to sleep

Yep, the Wolverines last stop is in California when they get stomped out by the elephant.

If they thought that TCU loss sad and heartbreaking……….damn this one is going to sting for a LONG TIME. But then they’ll say how it should’ve been FSU in there not bama. Yadda yadda yadda you know the excuse train has many stops

Or Michigan will silence the haters and Harbaugh will outcoach Saban

@@bamafan4102Those wolverines tore up that elephant. 😂

@@sheneedsme Come on now, let’s not exaggerate. An overtime TD is not tearing up another team. The game went into overtime and they were evenly matched. It could have been a win for either team, but our center had a horrible game with the bad snaps that probably lost Alabama at least 30 yards throughout the game. Anyway, hats off to Michigan. It was a good game.

Clown comment you dudes just look at stats without context first 8 games he didn’t play in 4th because it was blowouts. Last 4 games had a knee/ankle injury. Keep failing for it tho

Bama trailed in the second half in many of their games against bad SEC teams. Michigan is a bad match up for Bama. We are twice the team Auburn was. Bama will get theirs like Osu and Ped st. Michigan wins going away.

JJ has also been pulled in the 3rd quarter besides like 2 games because we tear the shit out of teams. Games are over at halftime or 5-10min into 3rd quarter.

@@blue888fulif you are twice the team auburn is. Then tell me your knowledge of that game please. Not the final score or the “miracle”. Your knowledge of that specific game beings that was your go to game. Enlighten me on your knowledge please

Reason the offenses so high is because the defense is terrible. See how that work

​@@THSLastbig 10 doesn't even play football they play patty cake. No comparison.

Bowl.records for the last 8 to 10 years show Big10 teams to be weak. Michigan is going to football school.in the Rose bowl.

​@@nickcampbell2222 The Big Ten was trash, but the SEC was not good. Neither ole Miss or LSU have a semblance of a defense, Alabama was the only decent team Georgia played all year, and it's not like they were particularly dominant at any point, Missouri beat no one good as well and is the definition of mediocrity. The SEC just lived off its reputation from a decade ago.

​@@HughButler-lb6zsThe transfer portal and NIL changed the game for everyone...Alabama no longer has the talent or depth of years past, and schools like Michigan are better able to hold onto and develop talent. Alabama will get more 5 stars every year, most of whom will flame out, transfer, or leave for the NFL in 3yrs, Michigan will keep guys in the system and bring in other upperclassmen in the program who have developed and are 4th and 5th year guys. Believe me or not, but there's a huge difference in a 19 yr old true sophomore and 21 yr old RS junior who's been in a college strength and conditioning program for 4yrs. And a bunch of 2nd and 3rd year 5 stars don't want to wait to play, so they'll just transfer out after 1 or 2 years and there goes 'Bama's depth, which has been their biggest strength over the years.

I hope Michigan.plays better football than Ohio State. Missouri just whooped them and allowed no.touchdowns. 😅😅😅😅 Missouri is in the weakest division. of the SEC and was runner up to Georgia. I.may end up taking a nap during the Rose bowl.

@@HughButler-lb6zs they had TROUBLE against Ohio St and that's without the best WR in the nation and a 3rd string QB after Brown went out. Michigan scored twice the points with an injured JJ

@@HughButler-lb6zs ...they did....

@@HughButler-lb6zsTime to wake up princess you just had a terrible nightmare 😂 Bama is not tough or fast or talented. Totally overrated.

@@PedroMartinez-tt7lr I don't bet on my team. Gambling makes me too anxious. I do like to study the probability and the oddsmakers are the best at it. When I followed every facet of SEC FB I used to participate in a $20 season long pick 'em. I did really well. You have to consider talent, "completeness" of the team, injuries, tendencies, and etc. Sometimes you can find a variable Vegas apparently omitted from consideration. I was disappointed. Michigan made enough mistakes to lose the game. Most of their defense looked like mind numbingly dumb zone defense to me. Why were there few drag routes/check-downs? I still don't understand how Alabama ended up with a center that cannot snap the ball. Alabama played good enough, at times, to win the game. It probably was the best game of the post season. But, it was "meh" too. Lack of regulation of the "NIL deals" and the transfer portal are killing CFB. I laughed when it happened to FSU. Now NS has retired and the Bama program has scattered to the wind. Fans support the team, and the individual players. There is no buy in. Gravedigger goes to Texas for 3/4 mil and a Lambo. I thought this would kill CFB 2 years ago. It's just getting started. CFB can be as popular as women's collegiate soccer. That can happen. I'm an alumni and was an obsessed fanatic. I even considered getting a small tattoo to represent my school/team but didn't just in case the program ceased to appeal to me. That day has come. The entire sport has transferred. I'm still here.

@@Jon.A.Scholt Somehow I ended up mixing up my research. Oops. He was injured for the post season the previous year. He's hands down Michigan's best player. He was definitely going to be a problem if he was on the field, and he was. Michigan would have been a cake walk without him. The defensive game plan should have centered around him and it probably did. It's hard to keep a good player bottled up for over 60 minutes though. ;)

Actually, it was played in Tuscaloosa.

Actually, both of you were terribly wrong.

@@Jon.A.Scholt not the first time just trying keep things going

@@milesclifft8099 🤣

Sorry to burst your bubble, but so does Alabama. The SEC isn't as bad as the Big Ten, but it hasn't been particularly good for years. It's generally been a 2 team conference for the last several years, and the only reason the parity isn't going up is because the SEC and B1G raided all the good teams from the other conferences.

​@@randalltromp2160.. hmmm I don't think the SEC is as bad as you want them to be

@@thethinkingmansgame5050 I think they're way worse than you want them to be. They had a losing power 5 conference record, and whenever they had a marquee matchup they got blown out of the water

Hope you don't think that matters. They play each other every day. Iron sharpens iron. Michigan is deep and will be fresh in the 4th quarter.

Oops, back to playing with your Barbies and girls soccer. 😂😂😂

What you meant to say was, Michigan is a bad matchup for Bama.

Big Ten is 4-2 on bowls so far, 1-2 vs. the SEC. Not great but not terrible.

Go Blue

ADVERTISING FOR BUD LITE , WHAT A BUNCH OF MONEY WHORES ¡!!¡

Gee, and Alabama won't... what arrogance, smh.

@@freeclimb5487 I have listened to.Michigan beat their chests all year while playing a patty cake schedule. Real football is about to start. It's not arrogance, it's confidence.

​@@HughButler-lb6zs Confidence and arrogance can be the same thing. Alabama hasn't played a team anywhere near as complete as Michigan. The last team they played with a superior defensive front, they lost. Michigan's defensive front is as talented as Texas's and has way more depth.

@@randalltromp2160Alabama plays Michigan talent every week in the Sec when has Michigan played Alabama level talent ???? They haven’t but they bout to

@randalltromp2160 Well it's nice to finally meet a football expert. We heard all this shit last year and Michigan got their asses handed to them by a.small Texas college. Michigan hasn't played but one team that shows any prowess. Alabama has played 5. You Yankees are all mouth. When was the last time a Big 10 team has won the natty. Except for Clemson, the SEC owns the National Championship.

You are correct, that is a elitist statement, you don't know all non-alums so you really cannot make that statement.

Just shows you had no idea what you were talking about.

Georgia had a really solid blueprint against this very manageable Alabama offense...be patient and disciplined on defense, 1 or 2 spies for Milroe, and make him make the defensive reads and beat you with his arm. Eventually the pass rush will get home. The Bulldogs held him to 56.5% completion and the Alabama offense to 306 total yards. If Georgia had a little bit better red zone defense, they win the game. 27 points is a lot to score on barely 300yds of offense. Of Alabama's 11 drives, 5 of them were 3 and outs. 2 more went fewer than 30 yards. Something like 80% of their production came on the 3 TD drives. Michigan has to be better than Georgia in the red zone. Turn some of their productive drives to FGs, and instead of 27 maybe we're looking at 16 points. I expect Alabama to leave their corners largely on islands with Cornelius Johnson and Roman Wilson and load the box. I think they'll be run heavy and sprinkle in some play action passing and probably a trick play or two. Alabama's good at running end arounds and jet sweeps, so I fully expect a bunch of different looks to try to exploit Michigan on the edges where they aren't as good. Michigan will probably have to employ McCarthy in the run game where the Alabama defense has struggled at times this year. PA will be important to keep the Tide defense honest, and finding mismatches with their TEs and RBs is imperative. This is not a world beating Alabama team on either side of the ball like some years past. Honestly, Alabama is not a horrible matchup for Michigan. Both teams will need to stay out of a negative game script. Michigan's pass blocking is very suspect and obvious passing downs could go very badly for them with the talent 'Bama boasts on the edges. Conversely, Milroe dropping back to pass 35 times probably spells disaster for the tide as he has the propensity to occasionally take terrible sacks, and with the Wolverines' ball-hawking secondary and complicated scheme could lead to some very bad INTs. For the same reason, both teams will want to avoid obvious passing downs, like 3rd and long, and in those situations, I kind of expect them to be conservative and live to fight another day. Punting and FG kicking may end up winning the day. My feeling is Michigan needs to average in the range of 3.5 to 4ypc to stay out of 3rd and long and set up play action where they can get some chunk plays. Getting Donovan Edwards isolated on a LB or Loveland on a LB or safety on quick throws is where they're going to have to get some damage done in the passing game. #2 CB for Michigan is not great, so staying in 2 deep safety looks as much as possible may be what they have to do. That's especially hard when employing dedicated spies. I actually like Michigan in this game, but not so much that I'm wildly confident. Can't wait for New Year's Day! Go Blue!
