Michigan's disastrous performance against Michigan State raises serious questions about Kyle Whittingham's future

Sometimes in the world of college football, a program gets its head-coaching search wrong.

It appears that may be the case in Ann Arbor, Michigan, as the Michigan Wolverines are putting together one of their worst offensive seasons in recent memory, begging the question of how long Kyle Whittingham will last as head coach.

Michigan was embarrassed on its home field

The horrific offensive season continued Saturday night with a 15-6 loss at home to in-state rival Michigan State, who entered Saturday with a 2-6 record.

It was the first time since 2013 that Michigan State knocked off Michigan without an offensive touchdown and the first time since 1965 the Spartans won without a touchdown at all.

The Michigan offense managed just 192 total yards while turning the ball over four times and missing a field goal. The lone six points came on a touchdown with less than two minutes remaining when the game was already out of reach.

The disastrous performance completely summed up what the offense has looked like throughout the entirety of the season.
