In this episode, Zach Shaw and Steve Lorenz break down the Michigan football team's 21-17 win at Penn State, and what it showed about the Wolverines' current and future capabilities.

We then dig deeper into some of the top performances of the game, including the secondary's strong coverage on Jahan Dotson and Penn State's receivers, Aidan Hutchinson and David Ojabo's dominant pass-rushing performances (and runs at history in the process)), Hassan Haskins' elite offensive performance and Cade McNamara's ability to take what the defense gave him.

We also spend a portion of the show discussing what Saturday's win taught us about Michigan's final two games. We look at areas the Wolverines can feel good about, and areas they may try to improve in the next two weeks.
