What We Learned: Where is your panic meter following Michigan’s narrow victory over Maryland?

The Michigan Wolverines are human.

After a non-conference run that was characterized as “easier than completing a pass against Michigan State,” for the second year in a row, the Wolverines struggled in their Big Ten opener.

Maryland followed in the footsteps of Rutgers from a year ago by executing a physical game plan with clever schemes and playing with a tenacious underdog mentality. Both games came down to the final few possessions and was swung by a timely turnover created by the Michigan defense.

But in the end, the Scarlet Knights were unable to storm the castle and the turtles couldn’t quite catch the hare.
