Welcome back to another edition of the Ballison Skeen Show, Wolverine.com podcast here at

the wolverine.com with me, Doug Skeen, Michigan's five-time Big Ten champion, former All-Big Ten

offensive linemen who's looking a little disgusted after watching that game on Saturday night.

And I got to be honest, we were kind of disgusted up there watching it as well, thinking,

okay, as good as it was up front against New Mexico, and it was better. And I don't care what anybody says. We watched the film. We saw them picking up stunts and twists. We saw a little bit of movement. We saw a bunch of guys that were really seemed committed to being better. And then you get Saturday night in that environment. We said that was going to be

the litmus test. And guess what, skiing? They failed miserably. And it wasn't one guy. It was really the

interior line that was terrible. Bryce Underwood didn't look like he was spooked or anything, but he did

look like, okay, guys help me out here. He was on the run. He didn't have time to throw.

The running backs, you know, some of the things they asked him to do in past protection. We'll

talk about that as well. I thought it was kind of a tall order when you had Justice Haynes

on a 250-pound defensive end bearing down on him. I remember we talked about that in the Rich

Rod era. So we'll talk about that too. But first things first, skiing, your overall thoughts on the

offensive performance, really the performance overall. I was really disappointed in the

preparation, the, uh, just the fact that they didn't look like it belonged out there, frankly.

Well, first of all, as I, as we were texting, uh, Saturday night there a little bit,

I know you're busy on game

night but credit to Oklahoma and coach Vanderbiltz there of designing a defensive game plan

to take advantage of the knowns and what I mean by that is coming into the game Michigan had

questions on the offensive line, a very young,

inexperienced quarterback, unproven wide receivers, and yet good running backs.

So if I'm the Oklahoma staff, I'm thinking, okay, what is Michigan going to try to do?

That wasn't hard to figure out, right?
