Michigan football, Bryce Underwood stun Oklahoma in epic bounce back win

Michigan football beat writer Tony Garcia joins Andrew Birkle and Shawn Windsor on the "Freep Sports Show" to discuss the Wolverines. What is really going on with Bryce Underwood? Can he get back on track? And do the Wolverines have a chance at getting back on track and beating No. 10 Oklahoma after a terrible showing against Western Michigan? Plus, the guys discuss the latest rules clarification from the NCAA in light of the call on the Hail Mary in the Michigan vs. WMU game, which would've gone against Michigan had it been enforced that way. And what should we make of the MAC's appeal of the Big Ten's ruling, and WMU's lack of pushback?
