UNDERESTIMATED: Michigan Wolverines SHOCK Doubters—Why David Cone Thinks Ohio State Will Fall

Michigan Wolverines enter rivalry week determined to silence doubters as national and Ohio State media predict a Buckeyes victory. Can Bryce Underwood's command of the RPO, a resurgent rushing attack, and Wink Martindale’s tactical defense extend Michigan’s four-game win streak over Ohio State? Isaiah Hole and former Michigan quarterback David Cone break down the high-stakes clash, dissecting why this matchup is more than just another game—it’s a proving ground for both programs.

Key topics include Michigan’s evolving running back room, the importance of controlling the turnover margin, and the cat-and-mouse strategies between Matt Patricia’s Buckeye defense and Underwood’s poised decision-making. The conversation spotlights potential x-factors like Jeremiah Smith, Carnell Tate, and Caleb Downs, and asks what it will take for Michigan’s offense to outlast Ryan Day’s explosive attack. Will home-field advantage and a chip-on-their-shoulder mentality fuel the Wolverines to victory once again?
