Breaking down Saturday's game against UtahBy Dan Feldman and Ian Robinson
Daily Sports Editors On August 28th, 2008
Michigan passing offense vs. Utah passing defense
Whether redshirt sophomore Nick Sheridan or redshirt freshman Steven Threet starts, the Wolverines’ passing game will likely struggle Saturday. Both quarterbacks have limitations — Sheridan may have trouble seeing over the line and doesn’t have a lot of arm strength; Threet struggles throwing on the run. And Michigan’s offensive line, replacing four starters, is likely to struggle.
The Utes have two All-Mountain West Preseason Team defensive backs in cornerback Brice McCain and free safety Robert Johnson. Utah’s coverage should be good, and that will be more than enough against a quarterback who has never thrown a college pass, is learning a new system and is being protected by a subpar offensive line.
Edge: Utah
