If Brady Hoke were, hypothetically speaking of course, Michigan's coach instead of a SiriusXM host... he totally would not have punted with nine seconds left in the game.
From DetroitNews.com:
"Personally, if we have the No. 1 defense in the nation I'm going to test those guys," Hoke said. "You've got to play to the strength of your football team and the strength of the Michigan football team all year long has been their defense."
He said he was sure "Jimmy" went over what he wanted to do and how he wanted to do it but Hoke said there are too many potential breakdowns on a punt.
"No. 1, I think the one gunner to the field should have been in a little bit more and if you're going to punt it there's ways to protect it a little better," Hoke said.
What would Hoke have done other than punt? He didn't say.
