Summary
Zach Shaw and Steve Lorenz continue their position group preview series, looking at the strengths, question marks, position battles, stats, players and bold predictions for the running back room this season.
They open looking at the room's strengths, including what Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards do well as a tandem together. They then turn their attention to the top candidates to be Michigan's No. 3 running back this fall, and why the room has more depth overall than last season.
In the second half of the episode, Shaw discusses a stat he's watching closely, Lorenz discusses the two's X-factor player and both make bold predictions for the room.
