It wasn’t just a terrible display on Saturday at The Big House, it was outright disenfranchising.
Michigan football wasn’t just lifeless against rival MSU, but the Spartans found new life in all areas, despite being perhaps the most banged up team in the Big Ten. The moribund Wolverine offense was on brand, but not in a good way. The defense was subpar, at least compared to the resume that Michigan had put out thus far, and considering that the Spartan offense entered as even worse than that of the maize and blue, even allowing 15 points to that outfit has to be seen as a failure.
