Coach Talk

Puremichigan
Hey, the key to football is creating and exploiting the mismatches, right? Thanks to stellar showings by Allen Robinson II and Stefon Diggs, our squad really took that to heart this past week. We nearly tripled Wallywood at wide receiver (26 points to 9.2). Robinson II had 48 receiving yards and two TDs while Diggs chipped in with 92 yards.
Wallywood
Wallywood will find it tough to complain about lack of opportunity this past week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 21 times in Week 14. With only nine total receptions, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
