Michigan football run game has been boom or bust, with too much bust

Entering the 2025 season, Michigan football coaches and players vowed the offense would be explosive.

In some ways, it has been. The Wolverines have nine pass plays of 15 yards or more and seven of 25 or more. On the ground, there also have been three massive runs, all by Justice Haynes. In Week 1 against New Mexico, he had a 56-yard score and another 59-yard rush. In Week 2, he ripped off a 75-yard touchdown against Oklahoma.
