ANN ARBOR, Mich. (Michigan News Source) – Scoring just seven points in an agitating loss to the University of Illinois, head coach Sherrone Moore now has to face Michigan’s offensive problems. The Wolverines finished with more total offense than Illinois, but two turnovers led to Illinois’s seven points, and the offense came away with seven.

Michigan has played three quarterbacks this season, and no one has the lead for starting in week nine. Moore says, “You can’t turn the ball over. You don’t want to go to four quarterbacks. You don’t want to have to go through this process, but you got to take care of the football. We’re going to see what we go to do, and we’ll have that conversation.”

Jack Tuttle went 20-of-32 for 208 yards but didn’t throw a touchdown and had one of the worst interceptions of the year, throwing straight to an Illinois defender. Michigan fumbled the ball three times and only gained one back. They also gave up five sacks and are tied for last in the Big Ten in turnover margin per game at -1.00.

“Just overall offensively, it was not good enough at all. Disappointing in a lot of areas. Jack can’t turn the ball over. When they’re open, we got to complete those passes. Just got to be better,” said Moore. “You have three turnovers in a Big Ten game, it doesn’t matter who you’re playing, you’re not going to win. So we just have to be better on offense.”

Tuttle, Davis Warren, and Alex Orji have all taken snaps under center. Davis has thrown six interceptions, Tuttle has two, and Orji has one. Davis has the most yards passing, though, with 444 yards in just three games, but Orji has played in all six with 148 yards passing and three touchdowns.

Moore finishes with, “I think we just have to reevaluate. See and look. We had a bye week. I feel disappointed in myself as the head coach that we didn’t come out and execute at a better level. There’s too many bits and pieces, not enough consistency. So, I have to look at myself, too. There’s no finger-pointing. Reevaluate myself and see what I need to do better for them, for the players and coaches, as well.”
