## Resource

Michigan’s season opener against Western Michigan is more than just a tune-up—it’s a proving ground for key players poised to step up. Nate Marshall gets his first real shot to dominate the pass rush, while JJ Buchanan and Andrew Marsh aim to energize the passing game and ease pressure on top receivers. Mason Bonner could emerge as a surprise weapon at tight end. On defense, Trey Pierce anchors the line, Jyaire Hill seeks to lock down corner spots, and Rod Moore’s return adds leadership and playmaking. Transfers like John Henry Daley and Jordan Marshall are ready to make immediate impacts, with Michigan leaning on the run game early. And at the heart of it all: Bryce Underwood’s debut under lights will reveal if he’s truly ready for Oklahoma—and beyond.
