SPECIAL EDITION – Michigan offensive film study with Al Borges (MSU): Why did passing game struggle?

NCAA F

For the first time this season we got out the telestrator and went to work on a Michigan offensive film study for you, our viewers. The goal to answer pressing questions about Michigan’s offensive performance against Michigan State, correct false narratives that have arisen since, and offer an objective breakdown of the impressive schematic adjustments in the run game, specifically the double slice and double bluff plays and how they confounded the Spartans. They also illustrate several reasons for the struggles in the passing game – the RPO breakdown, lack of protection adjustments, and most notably – examples of the growing pains that come with having freshman quarterback.

00:00 – Why this film study had to happen
08:36 – Double Slice (the “mother play”)
14:46 – Double Bluff: QB keep off the slice look (TD clip)
24:56 – Residual run: handoff gasher when the end flies up field
27:55 – Play-action off Double Slice: max-protect Y-sneak (missed dagger)
36:47 – Goal-line Y-Hide: TE is the primary (edge miss stalls it)
42:57 – Nickel pressure clip: turning the protection (Ringo/Lucky rules)
50:40 – Drive concept covered + pressure: take the smart throwaway
52:20 – Slide Naked: post-wheel hit to Marsh
55:57 – RPO/Bubble: golden pull that wasn’t
1:00:08 – Old-school Trap to the 3-tech (20+ yards)
1:04:01 – Max-protect Flood vs Quarters: layered corner to Marsh
