In this episode, Zach Shaw and Alejandro Zuniga break down the Michigan football team's matchup at Northwestern, what the Wolverines need to show after a second bye week and how they expect the game to go.

They begin with a look at the offense, which will be aiming to show a more efficient passing attack than in its previous two games. They discuss some specific facets in the passing game they will be looking to see improvement out of, and players they want to see step up. They also discuss the importance of Michigan testing out its running back depth, and predict how the offense will perform in several key statistics.

In the second half of the episode, they look at keys for Michigan's defense coming out of the bye week — beyond returning players from injury. They look at the edge rotation, the defensive line's pass-rush and opportunities for the secondary to force turnovers. They close the episode with defensive predictions, as well as their final score predictions for the game.
