Summary

In this episode, we discuss what the Michigan football team must show in its home game against Indiana, as it looks to bounce back from its first loss of the season.

We begin the episode by looking at how Michigan's culture has shown in the wake of the Wolverines' loss. We discuss the team's players-only meeting, what was said in press conferences and what we think it all means.

We then look at Michigan's offense and defense, and what each group can do in order for the weekend to be a "success" beyond simply beating the Hoosiers. We look at things Michigan must improve upon, along with other areas where the Wolverines can continue to build confidence.

In the second half of the episode, we run through prop bets for this week's matchup on both offense and defense, and make our predictions for how we think Saturday night's game will go.
