The Wolverines have been playing outstanding on defense. They aren’t allowing teams to get into much of a rhythm against them, consistently getting after the quarterback. Michigan has totaled 15 sacks thus far. This unit is fourth in the Big Ten in scoring (11.6), third in total yards allowed per game (252), third in passing yards allowed (157.8) and fifth in rushing yards allowed (94.2).
Sophomore linebacker Junior Colson is an athletic playmaker who runs sideline to sideline. Colson is a force in the run game with the quickness to defend tight ends and running backs. He’s leading the team in total tackles with 37. Linebacker Mike Morris has been doing damage off the edge. The Florida native leads the team in TFLs (6), sacks (4) and QB hits (3).
Senior linebacker Cam Jones is constantly all over the field for this squad. Jones is light on his feet with a superb change of direction ability. The Tennessee native owns good closing speed with long arms to wrap up ball carriers. He’s 10th in the nation in total tackles (54) including 24 solo. Jones has tallied double-digit stops in three straight games.
Freshman linebacker Dasan McCullough is having a terrific start to his college career. McCullough has long arms that allow him to extend into the chest and arms of defenders, constantly shedding blocks. The Indiana native is first on the team in sacks (4) with 19 total tackles and 4.5 TFLs.
SportsLine’s model is leaning Under on the total. It also says one side of the spread hits in 60% of simulations. You can only see the model’s CFB picks here.
