In this episode, Zach Shaw and Alejandro Zúñiga break down their biggest takeaways from a week in Los Angeles as the Wolverines prepare for the Rose Bowl against Alabama.
They open with a discussion about Michigan’s final preparations for the CFP after talking to coaches and players from both teams. They discuss why the Wolverines are better prepared for the CFP than in years past and some of their observations from Michigan’s practices.
Conversation then turns to breaking down the Rose Bowl itself. Shaw and Zúñiga give their offensive and defensive keys to the game — including what it’ll take to stop Jalen Milroe, and what the Wolverines need to do to move the ball against an excellent Crimson Tide edge group and secondary.
The conversation then ends with X factors, discussing some of the underrated players and keys that could be the deciding factor at the Rose Bowl. Zúñiga and Shaw then make their picks: Will Michigan be heading to Houston, or does the dream season end in Pasadena?
