The Michigan offense has taken massive steps since stubbing its toe against Notre Dame in the opener.
Obviously, the Irish boast a top-5 S&P defense, while the Terrapins have the No. 57 unit. With that said, the stats tell the story of massive growth on the line.
The front five allowed three sacks and seven TFL’s in South Bend. Last Saturday, a top-25 pass rush (2.75 sacks a game) failed to take down Shea Patterson, only hurrying him once. The Terps also possess a top-25 rush defense, which the Wolverines pounded for 171 yards on 4.
