Michigan LB Josh Uche is a play-maker for the Wolverines.

Last season, Uche recorded seven sacks in nine games. Now, as a senior, he has 3.5 sacks in five games. Michigan has won its last three games.

Sure, the Wolverines’ offense has looked better at times, but the defense looks much improved.

Two years ago, Michigan had a strong defense as well. However, on one Saturday night in Happy Valley, the Wolverines got blown out by Penn State 42-13. Uche was on that team. He remembers that game.

He remembers what the fans were like.

He talked about that and how that will fuel him for the upcoming Michigan-Penn State showdown this Saturday night:

Uche’s ready. And, we are too. So is ESPN’s College GameDay. They’ll be in Happy Valley as well.

We can’t wait for this one.
