But the offensive line can get better as the season progresses. They have to in order to contend.

"Michigan football reactions: Offensive line softer than toilet paper"
Like Phoenix mentioned, Our offensive line is the problem, they are super young so there is room for improvement to grow throughout the season. I hope they can gel quickly.
The d's issue is UM's typical problem of struggling with an athletic qb. That won't put up again to OSU. The line and rushing attack has to improve though because JH is never going to win passing the ball.
Kinda hurts when your safety gets ejected from a game for a questionable call a couple plays into the first quarter, he didn't leave his feet.
15 yard penalty was a good call, ejection not so much. The very next play was that long bomb over the safety by the Irish. Smart move by attacking.
The defense held them to 3 points in the second half. Adjustments were made but the offensive line couldn't give Shea anything. Those tackles were getting beat bad..
If the offensive line can gel as the season progresses, this team can contend. If not, then Shea or Dylan will be running for their lives. This young line has to mature.
