The Michigan football team is getting ready for their third straight trip to the College Football Playoff. The Wolverines will take on Alabama football in the Rose Bowl semifinal on New Year’s Day. One major challenge for Michigan will be stopping the arm and legs of Crimson Tide quarterback Jalen Milroe, and the Wolverines are working hard to prepare for the talented star.
Luckily for Michigan football, they have a backup QB that is a similar size as Jalen Milroe, and he is mobile. That backup QB is sophomore Alex Orji. Orji has come into games a couple different times recently, and he is a major threat with his legs. He has been a good tool for the Wolverines in terms of getting ready for Milroe’s rushing ability.
“We’ve got to tackle (Milroe) like a running back,” Grant concluded. “I mean, he invites contact, for sure, so we just have to tackle him like we tackle everybody else.”
