Michigan just wrapped a roller-coaster 9-3 season — and it all came crashing down in a 27–9 loss to Ohio State. Michigan's 4 year winning streak against an Ohio State University comes to a screeching halt.

In this episode, Nate, Brandon and Cousin Kyle break down what on earth happened, from the offense going missing to the defense also going missing. We ask the big questions:

• Is Wink Martindale’s defense past its expiration date?

• Is Sherrone Moore starting to feel the seat warm up?

• And seriously… where do we go from here?

Expect proper Michigan pessimism and just enough hope to convince yourself to be interested in a random bowl game.

Tune in for laughs, group therapy session, and the most entertaining breakdown of The Game you’ll hear all week.

In this nail-biter of an episode, Brandon and Cousin Kyle discuss Michigan’s wild 24–22 escape at Wrigley Field—a game filled with frustration, five turnovers, and just enough late-game magic to survive. We unpack the drama behind the Wolverines’ game-winning field goal, spotlight a defense that refused to break, and dive into the growing concerns in the running back room after Jordan Marshall’s injury. With depth getting thin, what’s next for this offense?

Then we turn the page to preview a tricky road matchup against Maryland. Can the Wolverines clean up the mistakes, rediscover some rhythm, and avoid another scare?

All that and more on this week’s All Things Wolverines. Let’s get into it.

Expect classic ATW banter, plenty of perspective, and a few laughs as Brandon and Kyle keep it real about where the Wolverines stand heading into November.

It wasn’t pretty, but big brother still runs the state. Nate and Brandon break down Michigan’s 31–20 win over Michigan State — a game where the Wolverines handled business, but somehow made it feel like a group project gone wrong. From punt returns that disappeared faster than Sparty’s hopes of winning the game, to kickoff returns that belongs in a Halloween horror film, the special teams unit made sure nobody got comfortable.

The guys relive the rivalry win, poke fun at little brother, and preview another night under the lights against Purdue. 

Nate, Brandon and Cousin Kyle break down Michigan’s win over Washington — the good, the bad, and the “we’ll take it.” Now it’s in-state rivalry week with a trip to East Lansing.
