wilson had separation but he never looked for wilson. he just locked in on bell who was covered by illinois' cb who is a first day nfl draft pick, the tight end, or a dink to a third string running back. and andrel anthony needs to catch some of those balls.
i agree with the internet consensus that michigan didnt take illinois seriously and almost paid for it. rested a bunch of guys, ran very conservative plays for the most part, and almost lost because of it.
as to michigan's receivers, they have a group coming up who are very highly touted. i expect them to start to break through next year and jj to look a lot better when they do. bell is a nice player, but he isnt beating potential nfl corners.
