Episode notes
Strategic Use Of The Bye Week
- The bye week is used to both heal injuries and keep players mentally and tactically sharp through walkthroughs and situational work.
- Sherrone Moore balances recovery with targeted football reps to correct issues without overtaxing players.
Defense Masks Youth With Physicality
- The defense delivered a high-effort, championship-level performance despite a long 19-play Purdue drive that tested them.
- Michigan's defense created momentum plays and masked youth with physical play and situational stops.
Challenge Scout Units In Practice
- Put scout-team players into tough, game-like positions in practice to expose and fix weaknesses before games.
- Practice should challenge defenders with the hardest looks so corrections happen in practice, not on game day.
