Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood kicked off his collegiate career with a bang, completing 67.7% of his passes for 251 yards and one touchdown with no interceptions in a 34-17 victory over New Mexico in Week 1.
However, things are about to get significantly more difficult for the top-ranked recruit from the 2025 class, as the Wolverines face No. 18 Oklahoma on the road this Saturday.
The Sooners opened their season with a commanding 35-3 victory over Illinois State in Week 1, and the CBS Sports College Football Insiders crew identified several reasons Michigan could struggle in Memorial Stadium on Saturday.
"Venables as a play caller going up against a true freshman is going to be a very interesting watch on Saturday," Chris Hummer of CBS Sports and 247Sports said Tuesday on College Football Insiders. "Venables is one of the most creative play-callers in the country in terms of generating pressure."
Venables, in fact, is 21-5 against freshman quarterbacks (true or redshirt) dating back to the beginning of his tenure as Clemson's defensive coordinator and spanning through his current gig (18-1 at Clemson, 3-4 at Oklahoma). In those games against Venables, the freshman QBs have helmed offenses that averaged 20.2 points per game. Whether they were 18 or 19 years old, the freshman classification is a telling filter: QBs on their first run of extensive college action, with limited experience in various defensive looks, are all the same.
