I think Michigan is better than last season, but not as good as they think they are. Thy definitely have some Elite defensive players, but we handled them pretty well last year in Beaver Stadium by exploiting their aggressive attack game.Therefore, I believe we can surprise them again by Trace attacking the area they'll leave open when blitzing and by utilizing the RPO efficiently. We will need a 100+ yard running game by Miles Sanders to help take all the pressure off of Trace. Giving Sanders 25+ carries should be our goal and mixing things up to keep them off balance. I think we can handle Michigans' passing game, but Patterson will test us often and early. If we can get pressure on Patterson in the pocket and contain him outside, they will become 1 dimensional in a run game. This will be a very close game (no blow-out like the last 2 years) and I KNOW we can win this at the end assuming we keep it close. Trace has a way of playing his best games against better teams in huge games like this!
