    Michigan's Hiring of Whittingham Is a GRAND SLAM | Michigan Podcast #323

    CITRUS: Why This Bowl Could Have MASSIVE Implications For the Future | Michigan Podcast #322

    Steve Deace wraps 2025 with a blunt look at where Michigan stands after a weird 9-3 season: Sherrone Moore's seat is officially warm, 2026 is playoff-or-bust and why the Citrus Bowl vs. Texas isn't about winning a meaningless game. Former Michigan QB David Cone joins to break down exactly what Bryce must show in those 15 bowl practices to prove he can be elite in Year 2.

    THE GAME: A Soul-Cleansing Whooping | Michigan Podcast #321

    Steve Deace gives no excuses after Michigan's soul-crushing 27-9 loss to a far superior Ohio State team: the Wolverines were outclassed in every phase, Bryce Underwood clearly regressed despite a full year of reps, and Sherrone Moore now faces a prove-it-or-bust 2025 with the playoff as the bare minimum or he's gone. Mark Rogers joins to break down the talent gap, the failed freshman QB experiment, and why better coaching would have made a dramatic difference this season.

    THE GAME | Michigan Podcast #320

    IT'S HERE. The 121st edition of The Game. Michigan vs. Ohio State — with snow in the forecast, a 4-peat on the line, and BOTH teams starting the #1 overall recruit from the last two classes (Julian Sayin vs. Bryce Underwood). Mark Rogers and Steve Deace break it ALL down.

    BRUTAL: Injuries Keep Racking Up (and So Do Wins) | Michigan Podcast #319

    Michigan just pulled off something historic at Wrigley Field: first time EVER the Wolverines win a game while committing FIVE turnovers (and going minus-5 in turnover margin). Steve Deace breaks down the wild 40-31 escape over Northwestern that felt like 2017 all over again. Mark Rogers from The Voice of College Football joins the show with his take.

    Can Bryce Underwood Be Fixed? Maybe. | Michigan Podcast #318

    Can Bryce Underwood be fixed before The Game? Steve Deace dives deep on this week's Michigan Podcast! After back-to-back duds vs. Michigan State and Purdue, the true freshman QB is regressing. Steve lays out the data: Michigan's offense has systemically improved, but Bryce's stats are nearly identical to last year's QBs. Joined by Mark Rogers of The Voice of College Football, they debate QB development, Ohio State's elite defense, and why weather could be Michigan's X-factor.

    It's Time to PANIC | Michigan Podcast #317

    The panic button is ENGAGED after Michigan's ugly win over Purdue. What was supposed to be a laugher turned into a nail-biter, exposing cracks in the Wolverines' armor. Bryce Underwood is regressing, the passing game is nonexistent, and injuries have decimated the roster. Steve calls this a poor man's 2021 team, with elite run game, elite defense, but no stabilizing QB and no margin for error. With Ohio State looming, he warns: this just might not be Michigan's year. Joined by Mark Rogers of The Voice of College Football, they debate the passing scheme's complexity, the talent gap, and why the playoff might actually hurt more than help.

    Can We PLEASE Give OPTIMISM a Try?! | Michigan Podcast #316

    Steve Deace injects some (what he says is) MUCH-NEEDED optimism on this week's Michigan Podcast! After a gritty 31-20 win over Michigan State, Steve pushes back on the fanbase's meltdown. Context matters: Michigan is 6-2 with a true freshman QB, three redshirt freshmen on the O-line, and no playable tackles left. They just beat Sparty on the road with 80 points in two straight trips to East Lansing, the most since the early 80s. Joined by Mark Rogers of The Voice of College Football, they break down Bryce Underwood's growth, the flattened parity of CFB, and why this team is exactly where it should be.
