Michigan's Zak Zinter Makes Clear That The Wolverines Remain Focused

Following Michigan's dominant win over Ohio State last Saturday, some within the Michigan fan base have expressed concerns that the Wolverines could be in for a letdown in Indy. For these folks, the fear is that the win over the No. 2 ranked Buckeyes - and the ongoing celebration that continues in Ann Arbor - might distract the team from focusing on a formidable opponent in Iowa.

In years past, overlooking an opponent or failing to prepare might have been a concern for the Michigan Football program - but not this year. 

Anchored by veteran leaders like Aidan Hutchinson, Josh Ross and Ronnie Bell, the Michigan Wolverines have climbed their way back into the national title hunt after nearly two decades of watching from home. Even more impressive than the 11-1 regular season record is how the Wolverines got there along the way. In the era of high-tempo spread offense, Michigan carved a pathway to Indy by bullying its way on the ground. Led by one of the top offensive lines in the nation, the Wolverines are proving you can still compete for national championships the old-fashioned way: brute force.

With a conference championship and a trip to the College Football Playoff on the line, the Wolverines have no intention of losing focus now. For proof, look no further than Zak Zinter's recent twitter post.
