Newsstand: Michigan/Oregon kickoff time set for Nov. 2
The Michigan Wolverines’ next marquee game on the schedule without a kick time – the Nov. 2 tilt with the Oregon Ducks – has an official television and time designation. According to an announcement on Monday, the game between the new Big Ten foes will kick off at 3:30 p.m. ET.
Coming into the year, it was seen as a potential preview of December’s Big Ten Championship game, though Michigan has not held up its end of the bargain there. Sitting at 4-3 on the year and its goals essentially evaporated, the program has to self-evaluate to get itself right down the stretch.
“I think the biggest thing is not only just self-reflection of who we are and what we need to do as coaches, as players, to make sure we get better and to make sure that we do everything we do in practice and on game day,” head coach Sherrone Moore said Monday. “It’s a huge emphasis, especially on offense. The things we do protecting the football and what we do in practice, we gotta do that in the game.”

Michigan quote of the day
“I thought it’s been good. The biggest thing we talked about is just controlling our rush lanes to make sure that guys, quarterbacks can’t get out and that’ll be huge this week. But I think our guys have done a really good job of coaching staff-wise, of doing different things to help the players, put them in the best positions to be successful. And guys playing hard the whole time and playing at a high level. They scored 21 points, but two of those are, one’s after a three and out off of a fake punt, and then the other one’s off of a turnover on the both and plus territory. So I think our defense is definitely progressing and played well enough to win the game and we gotta continue to hold up our end on offense and special teams.”
