Ask Aaron: Utilizing QB Shea Patterson in the Michigan offense

ANN ARBOR -- With camp just about over and Michigan planning an open practice this weekend, we can now begin to turn our attention to football.

Game week is almost here, folks. And it's about time.

Michigan opens the regular season next Saturday, Sept. 1, at Notre Dame, a nationally televised game that is sure to receive plenty of hype.

We learned this week -- surprise, surprise -- that Shea Patterson will be the guy under center, a surprise move by an otherwise secretive Jim Harbaugh. But we're still waiting to find out who will start along the offensive line and where, and who will replace Mike McCray at weak-side linebacker.
