Thats what you need to play to win. The Pro Style Offense don't work anymore its becoming extinct at the HS level and Pro level.

Change is needed

I mean, 4WR sets are/were used— it’s not like Michigan was 100% pro-set. Part of the ‘offensive development’ has also been that we don’t have the bodies to run as many of the sets UGA and Alabama used. Michigan’s Receiver depth is definitely not even close to those two teams. Be content with the growth of where Michigan is, and still expect more down the road.

It does seem like the fail to be very creative at times.  For example, Gentry was a star QB for his career until transferring to UM.  I am still waiting for a trick play to have him through a pass (and instead we saw DPJ throw a floater a few weeks ago that was fortunate not to be intercepted).

Not in big games it isn't....we save our frippery for teams other than OSU.

That's what kills me....we ran a more sophisticated offenSe for the PSU game. What was needed was more of that against OSU, not less.....

Yeah, it may not have worked....it may have caused us to lose.....uhh, wait....

It may have caused us to lose by a bunch.....uhh, wait.....

It may have gotten the QB hurt....uhh, wait.....

Yeah, but it may have given us a chance to keep up....

TL;DR Turtle time does not belong in big games.

Not necessarily.  You just have to get your explosive players the ball in space.  Our coaches seem to only want to use a ball control passing offense.
