Instead of leveraging their superior talent and playing to their strengths, it felt like Day and Kelly were more focused on proving they could win through physicality on offense. Ironically, spreading the defense out and attacking through the air would have opened up the run game and showcased their physicality even more effectively.

Edit - Let me clarify what I meant by my title. Instead of playing to our strengths (which made us the far superior team), Day and Kelly chose to stubbornly take on Michigan at the only strength they had to prove we were tough—a strategy that was dumb.
