In this episode, 247Sports' Zach Shaw and Steve Lorenz preview the Michigan football team's upcoming game against Illinois, looking at the keys for the Wolverines on both sides of the ball and making their predictions for the matchup.

They begin with a long look at what Michigan's offense must show in the game. They look at some key ways the Wolverines can get after the Fighting Illini's statistically sound pass coverage, key plays Michigan can implement more to meet the matchup, and what their recommended approach would be to the Wolverines' rushing attack. They do some offensive prop bets, and debate Michigan's ideal run-pass dynamic Saturday.

In the second half of the episode, they look at the other side of the ball. They discuss Illinois' most successful offensive players, keys to stopping them and other things we want to see from the Wolverines Saturday. They close with more prop bets, as well as their final thoughts and score predictions for the game.
