Michigan football players confident they can win final four games

Michigan football players say they are ready to cut loose and finish the season strong starting with rival MSU.

Michigan football players are optimistic about winning their final four games of the season, according to the team's head coach Kyle Whittingham. The Wolverines have won all of their contests except for one, and their defense is ranked No. 3 nationally. However, the offense has struggled to find its footing, especially with new starting quarterback Tommy Carr.

Junior tight end Hogan Hansen emphasized the need for the team to play complete games, while sophomore tight end Eli Owens said that the team's favored status doesn't matter – what matters is winning each down. Offensive lineman Evan Link noted that the offense has an opportunity to right the wrongs of the first eight games and that these last four games could be crucial for the team's overall record.
