Kyle Whittingham explains disastrous Michigan play call vs. Indiana

Michigan coach Kyle Whittingham addressed criticism regarding a failed third-and-goal play call during the team's 13-6 overtime loss to Indiana. With the ball on the one-yard line, quarterback Tommy Carr attempted a play-action bootleg that resulted in a sack, forcing a missed field goal.

Whittingham defended the play design as sound, noting that a receiver was open, but credited the Indiana defensive end for disciplined execution. Former player John Duerr challenged this assessment, pointing out that the same defender had successfully spied the quarterback on previous snaps, suggesting the coaching staff failed to identify the defensive tendency.
