In this video, former defensive players Jett Bush and Drew Kelson conduct a detailed film breakdown of Michigan’s defense during their matchup against Ohio State. The aim is to identify Michigan’s defensive strengths and vulnerabilities that Texas can exploit to secure a win.

The discussion covers key defensive alignments, coverage disguises, run defense execution, and communication issues within Michigan’s defense. Particular attention is given to Michigan’s secondary, especially the aggressive safety play and the cornerbacks’ responsibilities, as well as the linebacker corps’ tendencies in gap integrity and run fits.

The analysts highlight instances of missed assignments and communication breakdowns, suggesting that Texas’ offense could capitalize on these lapses, particularly with vertical runs and deep passing plays. The conversation also touches on the unpredictable nature of bowl games and the potential for unique opportunities due to varying player availability and motivation.

Throughout, the analysts emphasize the importance of discipline and communication in defense, concluding that while Michigan’s defense is fundamentally sound, there are exploitable weaknesses Texas can leverage.
