Michigan's offense struggles as Jason Beck calls for improvement
Summary

Michigan's offense, currently ranked among the worst in the nation, faces significant challenges as they enter their bye week with a 3-2 record. Receiver J.J. Buchanan emphasized that the team needs to 'do a little bit more' to turn things around, acknowledging the need for more execution and personnel changes. Offensive Coordinator Jason Beck's proposed adjustments may include reducing specific play types and increasing tight end involvement. The defensive unit remains strong, ranking No. 6 in total defense, but they spend too much time on the field due to the offense's struggles. Upcoming matches against Penn State and Indiana loom large for Michigan as they attempt to rectify their offensive issues.
