Michigan podcast topics

Here are some of the topics we discuss:

• What to expect from Michigan sophomore quarterback J.J. McCarthy in his second career start. McCarthy was nearly flawless last week, but he’s going to have to continue to show more. UConn brings blitz on more than 40 percent of passing downs, so he will have to make the right reads and see the soft spots of the defense.

• Where the Michigan defense can improve after two dominant performances. The Wolverines have given up a combined 17 points and 472 yards to Colorado State and Hawai’i combined, but they still need to improve their ability to rush the passer with just four.

• Predicting the Michigan vs. UConn final score and projecting who will be the player of the game on offense and defense.

• Week 3 college football picks — Michigan State vs. Washington, Notre Dame vs. Cal, Penn State at Auburn, BYU at Oregon, Oklahoma at Nebraska and Miami at Texas A&M.
