Summary
In this episode, 247Sports' Zach Shaw and Steve Lorenz break down Michigan's 31-10 win over Indiana. They discuss what worked on both sides of the ball, assess the weight of some weak points from the performance and offer an early look-ahead to the Wolverines' clash against Penn State.
The two begin by looking at Michigan's offense, and how the passing game began to come alive a bit in the second half of Michigan's win. They discuss JJ McCarthy's career game, continued progress in other parts of the Wolverines' passing game, and the offense's general demeanor after a first half that included mistakes and Mike Hart's sideline collapse. They also look at some areas the offense could improve.
The second half of the episode is devoted to the ups and downs of Michigan's defense. They discuss a stellar run defense, a pass-rush that may have had a coming-out party in the second half, some coverage lapses and other observations. They close with a look at where Michigan stands after six games and ahead of its matchup against Penn State.

| 0:26.4 | the defense and anything else that comes up. So, Steve, this was certainly an interesting |
| 0:33.4 | first half. A lot went on. It was 10, 10 at halftime. Two teams were from a yardage |
| 0:39.4 | standpoint, fairly even. I think Michigan had the edge and yards per play and everything. But |
| 0:44.7 | 10 points against Indiana, we discussed Indiana's defense heading into the game. This felt like |
| 0:50.5 | a game where Michigan, you and I both thought Michigan would exceed 40 points. |
| 0:56.5 | And so certainly a lot of mistakes. |
| 0:58.3 | There were drop passes. |
| 0:59.4 | There were missed throws. |
| 1:01.8 | There were missed assignments or routes run incorrectly. |
| 1:05.8 | Obviously, there is also the caveat that Mike Hart collapsed on the sideline, very scary moment. |
| 1:12.0 | And I kind of wrote about this after the game. |
| 1:14.7 | Scary for everybody who was watching, but I think perhaps especially so for the players |
| 1:20.3 | because they're not given, you know, the follow-up information. |
| 1:25.0 | They're not necessarily. |
| 1:27.0 | I mean, they're right there. |
| 1:28.0 | And they have to go, |
| 1:28.9 | you know, |
