Michigan's offense struggles again: 'At some point you gotta have results'

Michigan's struggling offense has once again come under scrutiny following their 15-6 loss to Michigan State. Head coach Kyle Whittingham stated that he will evaluate the offensive issues after the season, rather than during the season, as the team has three regular-season games left and bowl eligibility seems unlikely with those games being against Oregon, UCLA, and Ohio State.

The Wolverines are averaging 302.6 yards per game, but their rushing attack has been particularly weak, with just 54 yards against Michigan State. The team's turnover margin is at a disastrous minus-eight, contributing to their inability to secure wins. In their last two games, Michigan has scored just six points, including a dramatic overtime loss to Indiana.

Offensive coordinator Jason Beck will continue to call plays from the sidelines, but Whittingham will not make any changes to the coordinator position at this time. The team's inconsistency and lack of progress have been frustrating, despite some productive moments, such as their performance against Rutgers and Pennsylvania State.

Whittingham remains confident that the team can overcome these challenges, promising that they will eventually get their act together. Kicker Jacob Baggett won a competition for the MSU game, but Michigan has now missed five kicks in the last three games, including a missed 26-yard field goal against Michigan State. Despite the setbacks, edge rusher John Henry Daley remains optimistic that the team will bounce back and play up to their potential.
