Michigan's new head coach Brady Hoke had an impressive debut as the Wolverines beat Western Michigan 34-10. More impressive was Hoke's post game comments. Anyone who just saw the score and highlights would have thought that Michigan dominated this game. Hoke cleared that up real quick.
When asked about the overall performance of his defense, one that forced three turnovers and returned two for touchdowns Hoke stated "We're a long way away from being any kind of defense that we want to represent Michigan with". Wow...but he's absolutely right. I watched the game, and Western Michigan marched up and down the field on Michigan. The Broncos bailed out the Wolverines by shooting themselves in the foot several times in the first half. A picked up block here, a made field goal there, and we would still be waiting on the game to resume from the weather delay. The Wolverines were fortunate and to their credit, capitalized on the Broncos' misfortunes. Saturday was a great start, but Brady Hoke is right, Michigan still has a ways to go.
