Davis Warren sets a new high for passing yards

Indiana's defense has been getting better against the pass and allows just 188 yards per game. The Hoosiers also surrender just 0.9 touchdown passes per game.

Yet, teams have been able to take advantage of them throwing the ball. Maryland and Northwestern combined to average 260 passing yards and five touchdowns in two games against the Hoosiers.

Michigan football doesn't have a ton of pass-catching talent. But Colston Loveland needs to be fed the ball. The Wolverines should take a shot deep to Amorion Walker and try to get Semaj Morgan and Tyler Morris invovled.

Come out and throw the ball on first down. Whether Michigan does that or falls behind and starts throwing more, Warren has played well since being reinserted into the lineup and he beats his career-best of 204 passing yards against Texas.
