If you’re talkin second half sure, but there’s not a QB short of Mike Vick who could’ve survived with the pressure Milroe got first half. That was horrendous OL play


Michigan wouldn’t have blitzed as much if they were scared of our QB taking advantage. The OL looked worse than it was due to us not having a QB that can read blitzes and hit the open guy. He trusts his legs too much and tried to escape way too many times rather than using his arm to beat the blitz. 1st half would have looked a lot different with Tua or even Mac at QB.

While I agree with every word of this, the OC didn't help at all. BAMA was roasting the edges.
Did we run the pop-pass to Bond or Law at all? Did we try a wheel route all game? Where did the quick slant go?
Where, for the love of Christ, is Niblack? I know they aren't popular anymore, but why not try a screen pass to a rb? Something to loosen that fricking relentless pass rush in the 1st half. Rees did nothing to help Milroe. The only success BAMA had in the 2nd half was because Michigan adjusted their defense foolishly.
