Michigan faces Penn State, the big house, and falls yet again, 27 to 17, 0 for 3 in the big house,

and I will get a chance to talk to head coach Jim Harbaugh and a number of players,

and we'll continue to break down what happened this afternoon in the big house here on In the Trenches.

Let's go in the trenches with John Jansen.

The former Wolverines captain in Michigan Sports Hall of Famer will take you inside the locker room with players and coaches.

You come to Michigan to play football at a high level, execute at a high level, and so the drive on this team is definitely still there.

We're going to come back, you know, we're going to look at the film, we're going to improve on what needs to be improved upon, and we're just going to come back, keep playing every day, getting better and proven.

Looking where we can improve is a huge thing that we need to do.

Once again, here's John Jansen.

Michigan drops another one, 27 to 17, and I'm going to get a chance to talk to Brian Bush. Brian? Yeah, John, let's analyze this one.

To me, the thing that stands out, time of possession, 36 and a half minutes for Penn State,

23 and a half minutes for Michigan. Ultimately, Penn State converting 25 first downs to just 14

for Michigan. Nittany Lions controlled the time of possession and really the flow of this game.

Well, they did.

And when you are 50% on third down, when you can't get off the field as a defense,

you know, it's one, yes, you want your offense to extend drives.

You need them to eat up some of that clock, but it's also your responsibility

to get off the field. And they just weren't able to do that. You look at some of the drives

that they had. Obviously, their scoring drives were, you know, four minutes, three and a half

minutes. And then in the second half, it was,, four, a little over four minutes, five minutes.

And it's just they ate up so much clock, especially in the fourth quarter.

In the fourth quarter, they had the ball for over 10 minutes.
