MichiganAfter injuries reshuffled the offensive line on Saturday against UTEP, head coach Kyle Whittingham provided a pair of crucial updates on the Inside Michigan Football Radio Show : "Jordan [Marshall] will be available unless there's a setback," Whittingham told host Jon Jansen. "Andrew Sprague, gosh, that's a tough question," Whittingham continued.
"I think, you know, it could be anywhere from this week to several weeks, and so we just don't know." With backup tackle Andrew Babalola already out indefinitely, Sprague's status puts an uneasy strain on the unit.
"Offensive line played their best game of the season on Saturday, and obviously Bryce played his best game." On his radio show on Monday night, Michigan Football head coach Kyle Whittingham gave an eery injury update on OL Andrew Sprague:
"I think it's in his read progression in the throw game. He's been able to go through his reads in a much more timely fashion," Whittingham said.
KEY POINTS
- However, Whittingham was particularly pleased with their play, and 185 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 42 carries bodes well for future matchups: "Those are the two areas that have really started to get some traction," Whittingham said.
- Underwood, who went 19-of-25 for 223 yards and two touchdowns, looks more comfortable in this new offense every game:
- His favorite target was wide receiver Andrew Marsh , who hauled in a team-high 10 catches for another team-high 105 yards and a score.
- Marsh echoed the improvement theme, and these upcoming Big Ten tests will prove if this offense has taken a step, or if the 52 points were a product of the competition:
