In fact, the Maize and Blue sported white pants for every away game from 2015-20, with the exception of a 2017 loss at Penn State. In 2021, Harbaugh began giving more say to the players \u2014\u00a0captains and leadership council \u2014\u00a0but he makes the final uniform choice.<\/p>\n Since the 2021 campaign, Michigan has gone with white pants on the road just three times, and this will be the fourth. Blue and maize have been the most common pant color to this point, but all three colors will be tied up with four selections after Saturday night.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a look at Michigan\u2019s uniform combinations for away tilts (or neutral-site games with white jerseys) since 2021:<\/p>\n Game<\/strong>Pants Color<\/strong>Result<\/strong>Wisconsin (Oct. 2, 2021)BlueW, 38-17Nebraska (Oct. 9, 2021)WhiteW, 32-29Michigan State (Oct. 30, 2021)MaizeL, 37-33Penn State (Nov. 13, 2021)MaizeW, 21-17Maryland (Nov. 20, 2021)BlueW, 59-18Iowa (B1G championship Dec. 4, 2021)BlueW, 42-3Iowa (Oct. 1, 2022)BlueW, 27-14Indiana (Oct. 8, 2022)MaizeW, 31-10Rutgers (Nov. 5, 2022)WhiteW, 52-17Ohio State (Nov. 26, 2022)WhiteW, 45-23Nebraska (Sept. 30, 2022)MaizeW, 45-7<\/p>\n So fresh, so clean #GoBlue<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/kfiG7HSkuf<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Michigan Football (@UMichFootball) October 6, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/span>\n<\/div>\n \u201cI think we\u2019ve been doing a really good job running to the ball. Our effort and angles have been a lot better this year than what they were last year,\u201d the Michigan assistant told reporters. \u201cWe\u2019re tackling better, we want to keep improving on tackling, but it\u2019s a lot better. We\u2019re disrupting the ball \u2014 I think we had two forced fumbles last week. I don\u2019t think we had any the year before.\u00a0We\u2019re getting to the ball; we\u2019re intercepting the ball. At every level, somebody is affecting the ball. Our communication has been unbelievable. If you take those fundamentals \u2014 we call them our pillars \u2014 you take those into every game and every situation, we have a great chance of being successful. We want to continue to rely on those, and when we add little nuances regardless of who we\u2019re playing, the guys can still continue to run to the ball, have great angles, disrupt the ball, destroy blocks and have great communication.\u201d<\/p>\n \u2014\u00a0Michigan co-defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach Steve Clinkscale on his defense<\/p>\n \u2022 Chris Balas, The Wolverine: Notebook: Amorion Walker\u2019s progress, where Michigan is excelling on defense, more<\/a><\/strong> The post Newsstand: Michigan arrives in Minnesota to battle for Little Brown Jug<\/a> appeared first on On3<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Tweets Of The Day The Michigan Wolverines football team touched down in Minneapolis ahead of…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18833","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18833","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18833"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18833\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18833"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18833"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18833"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
