you could tell the talent level was lopsided in our favor and I’m not sure Michigan was expecting that or the media.

According to 247 Sports, Michigan was #15 in the country in total talent composite on the roster. Elite, no. But they aren't exactly dog shite. Auburn is at #14, Cincinnati is at #54, for context. #15 in talent composite is respectable.

Only 7 points scored after halftime, like I said great team win but 7 points in the second half will not be good enough against Saban.

We took our foot off the gas in the 4th. If the game was closer, I can assure you there'd have been more than 7 points in the 2nd half. This has been the formula all year. Create insurmountable lead in the first half, then play slow the second half to grind clock and get backups in the game.
