Michigan struck gold by using Jaishawn Barham as an edge rusher.

Just ask Nebraska HC Matt Rhule:

Michigan's coaches learned a lesson after limiting Bryce Underwood last week:

“We thought at Oklahoma we would take the air out of the ball because they're an air raid offense. We're not taking the air out of the ball ever again — not with this guy.”
