Episode 55: The 2022 Michigan Football Preview, Defense Edition

Ace, Dan, Connor and Taylor go position-by-position through Michigan’s defense. But first, another lengthy big moods session.
Topics:

Connor only watches movies with subtitles

The most down bad date of all time

The “Faceoff on the Lake” is sadly semi-false advertising

Meltdown August

Remembering Some Punt Returners

We hit the under on our “Caden Kolesar mention” prop bet

Dispelling the myth of Night Kinnick

Connor’s big mood is an accidental self-critique

The defensive line: large, good, might even have instant impact freshmen

Edge: big shoes to fill, lots of players to try

Inside linebacker: solid potential among the starters, not a lot of depth

Cornerback: the strength of the defense, arguably

Nickel: will be a downgrade from Dax Hill but a lot of ways to fill this spot

Safety: should have at least three playable guys, we all love Rod Moore

Special teams: good kicking, please don’t use indispensable players as returners
