PFF grades the defense against UM

There was something schematically amiss with how the MLBs dropped into their zones; they turned way too quickly, and Michigan abused them with TE delays and RB curls all night long.

Yeah, it was like if he didn't release right away we totally forgot about him.  

I think a couple times it was longer yardage to go.  So maybe we were dropping to the sticks.  But still...

The last one the LBs recognized it right as he released, but were so deep it was a tough tackle attempt by the time Henrich got there. It's tough because if you don't get some depth as an LB they're probably dropping it over your head, but we needed to adjust better. Henrich is around the ball a lot more than he used to be, but actual tackling is not his strength.
