Michigan vs. UNLV Score, Recap & Analysis
With the game already decided, UNLV had a couple of shots at the endzone late in the fourth quarter that would have trimmed the Wolverine lead to two touchdowns.
UNLV vs Michigan 2015 (live score results below) just ended the third quarter of today’s college football game. Defensively, the UNLV Rebels yield 306.5 yards in passing and 229.0 yards in passing. “We wanted to improve in that area”. (UNLV) has got a good football team. The Wolverines weren’t challenged Saturday and looked sluggish at times on offense, but should get a better test for how far they’ve come in September when BYU visits the Big House next week.
It was no surprise that Michigan rolled UNLV 28-7 Saturday in Michigan Stadium. I like watching what his careers going to be like.. “Defense, we just have to do our job and worry about our part”.
Rebels starting quarterback Blake Decker, listed as questionable heading into the game after limping off the field at the end of the first half of last week’s 37-3 loss to UCLA with an obturator internus strain near his hip, started but struggled.
Here’s the great thing about Michigan quarterback Jake Rudock: he’s a game manager, exactly what head coach Jim Harbaugh wants. Three games is a pretty good sample size and the Michigan defense has been unwavering.
It’s a massive undertaking trying to mold a victor out of a perennial loser, and given the size, speed and depth disadvantages over the past three weeks, it would be silly to expect that to start before next week’s home game against Idaho State.
But the Rebels were able to spoil the Wolverines’ coveted shutout early in the fourth quarter.
The defensive staff has put a giant emphasis on turnovers under coordinator D.J. Durkin yet the defense has created only one during the course of regular play (the other was a halftime Hail Mary interception).
That’s not a win, but for now it’s something, and because it’s been a consistency through three games, it can eventually be something that helps in a victory. I like that hes come from a non-traditional way of doing it, Harbaugh said.
“It’s tough”, Decker said.
