      It is much improved, Michigan offense is absolutely dog 💩 it won’t be ready however Michigan will try to bully and out physical SC that’s their only chance and they will try to run down they throats and on defense they will try to enforce pressure on Moss, SC defense looks the best I’ve seen in awhile but I’m still not sold, LSU Emery averaged 6 ypc and their QB who is low mid put up 300+ yards on their secondary, with that being said ain’t no elite defense in cfb allowing mid players to do that on them, Utah state RB averaged 6 ypc to and Michigan has 3 RBs that are better then anything LSU and Utah state has to offer, so SC has to find their inner B1G physicality this weekend or they’re losing sad to say

Orji was the projected starter all off season, it was his job to lose and he lost it to Warren, who we’ve seen is terrible. What does that tell you about how good orji is or isn’t? If orji truly does show that he’s that much better than warren then this is a huge indictment on Moore and the rest of the coaching staff .

      Not having to worry about the pass makes defending the run a much easier task.
      These days, playing top level D-1 football programs without the benefit of an effective passing attack is like running a 2 legged race single footed.

      This is also exactly why Warde Manuel needs to be fired. He’s the worst Athletic Director in NCAA history, but his job is safe bc our president is also super incompetent in which he’s too busy raiding student tents than he is on improving sports operations
