Great recap Alex. I thought you were dead on with your assertion that Michigan should have tested the edges more and was surprised to see us smashing the ball to Tuli and Taki so much (and also was surprised with how successful it was). Does this bode well for our interior OL, or is it just a matter of grinding a team with a weak offense into dust?

Ace, maybe this question has been asked before, but what is it about zone defenses that seem to make it so difficult for teams on the upper end of a talent gap to overcome? This game reminds me of a few other times over the years where Michigan struggled with an opponent with a far lower KenPom rankings, as well as other notable matchups like Syracuse beating MSU in the 2018 NCAA tournament?
I only know that such teams ran zone defenses because of reading game recaps like those posted on MGoBlog, and while the concept of a zone D is easy enough to grasp I don't get why it seems like such defensive schemes are able to throw such a wrench in the face of colossal talent disparities?

As I understand it, the practices are what really matters in the senior bowl, the game is of little consequence to NFL scouts.
Awesome overview. Looking forward to tuning into BTN+ turning the camera toward the court 5 minutes into the 2nd quarter next time I get the chance.
This is super helpful! I'm always squinting at the graphics explainer box in the previews.
Especially with Michigan and Minnesota fans looking for something to watch that helps them forget football.
