Michigan Football: 3 things I want to see vs. Texas
By Nick Popio
3. An uncomfortable Quinn Ewers
Wink Martindale didn't blitz that much on Saturday, but I would bet that he will try to do it more this week, especially if it is working. Ewers was picked off once and sacked once last week. Josiah Stewart had a pair of sacks himself and Martindale's defense had interceptions on back-to-back plays, but they were nullified by a questionable pass rushing call and an overturned replay.
Stewart and Derrick Moore will have their hands full going up against potential first round pick Kelvin Banks Jr.. On the other side Cameron Williams is by far no slouch at 6'5'' 335 pounds. This will be one of the largest, if not the heaviest line that Michigan's defense will face all season.

Last year in Tuscaloosa Ewers shredded the Tide's defense for 350 yards and three touchdowns with no turnovers. He went into Bryant-Denny stadium, stood toe-to-toe with Nick Saban and did something that practically no one outside of his teammates or coaches expected him to do. The last quarterback to do that was Joe Burrow in 2019.
