Bazelak’s overall passing grade from PFF is a 56.6. But, when he is in clean pocket, he has a 66.3 grade. Everything goes down when he feels pressure. PFF gives him a 41.3 grade under pressure and that is when he has thrown three interceptions.

The offensive line hasn’t done Bazelak any favors. PFF ranks the pass blocking for the Hoosiers as the 119th in the country and PFF gives them a 45.7 grade.

That's what we've been saying all along . . . the OL is bad and Bazelak isn't effective under pressure.

Unfortunately I can't see our offense generating much of anything except in garbage time in the 4th quarter.

Bazelak's accuracy has been a problem all season but, in fairness to the guy, he's frequently pressured. Per PFF, we're 119th nationally in pass blocking. How is Hiller still in charge of the OL?

While it's "same old, same old" with the OL, I'm surprised at our defensive play. While it's had its moments, the D has often played poorly, and explosive plays killed us against Nebraska. The 'Huskers completed two 34-yard passes on their first series, one for a touchdown, and their go-ahead TD early in the 4th was a 71-yard completion.

Michigan runs the ball 60% of the time. They'll leverage the run game, control the clock, and methodically roll to what I fear will be an easy victory.
