Had (Canadian) Thanksgiving dinner with family and held 1 month old nephew for an hour while he slept.
I regret nothing.

Absolutely the best analysis possible Ace.
October 12th, 2013 at 9:27 PM ^
Maybe time to invest in a headset big guy...So you know what the fuck is going on.
October 12th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
Not the conservative play calling.
October 12th, 2013 at 9:27 PM ^
Ace. Hero.
October 12th, 2013 at 11:02 PM ^
We really don't need any post game analysis. Ace summed it up perfectly.

We are in serious jeapordy of a RR-esque downward spira from ths point. We are teetering on the edge here.
October 12th, 2013 at 10:21 PM ^
October 12th, 2013 at 10:24 PM ^
Yeah, those teams would at least try to do something other than run right into the middle of a stacked defense. Play. After play. After play.
October 12th, 2013 at 10:32 PM ^
we are in serious jeopardy of losing to indiana, msu, iowa, nebraska, and ohio state.
the only difference between this team and RR teams is that we also have a greater than zero shot at winning any and all of those games.
October 12th, 2013 at 10:35 PM ^
Yes those teams had big wins against bad teams before they went down the shit slide. This team barely eeked out wins against bad teams before taking the shit slide trip.
October 13th, 2013 at 1:16 AM ^
But 2 wins may be all we get,. 7-5. Not too far from what most predicted this team would finish at 8-4.
A tire fire season would be going on a 6 game losing streak. I would question the HC if this happens.

I been reserving judgement on Borges and trying to find excuses for him. That's over, he's not a good OC. From his press conferences, he seems to think he's a really smart guy, but it sure doesn't show during games. Here we go again...DeBord 2.0.
October 12th, 2013 at 10:06 PM ^
I too reserved judgement until now. I had much hope in that Iowa game playing Devin and Denard together and seeing how they worked in unison. Then he followed that up with OSU, specificially the second half of OSU and it was a disaster. This team has only a few strengths on offense and rather than playing to them he is stubborn. Fitz could not run up the middle all game. He had one run of 7 yards that was the highlight run of the game. 27 for 27 tells me the other 26 runs were for 20 yards. And yet you pile him in there during OT repeatedly like a battering ram on reverse?
I blame Hoke however for the lack of game awareness - when your QB is in the moment and can't figure out he has to preserve 5 yards at end of 4th Q, and in OT it is up to the head coach to do that. Hoke was lost. He cannot even be bothered to put on a headet at that moment of the game so someone whose ONLY JOB IS TO WATCH THE PLAYCLOCK (you know a GA Or something) can yell in his ear that he has to call a TO since there are 3 seconds left? No - he is too busy doing "coaching moments" in the last 2 minutes of the game I guess. And dare Hoke ever overrule a Borges play call? No he cannot - because he doesnt know the plays since he has headset-less.
And I bet NO ONE told the damn punter to kick it for like 25 yards before he went out there all pumped up on adrenaline at the end of the game. Because hey "let's just trust the kids".
October 12th, 2013 at 11:08 PM ^
Your last point is a bit much. I'm sure someone told the punter of the importance of keeping it out of the endzone, and I'm sure he tried. It's just hard to do from that distance.

Amen, brother!
October 12th, 2013 at 9:30 PM ^
Haven't seen an offense this poorly called since Fred Jackson was OC.
Haven't seen an offense this poorly managed since Nick Sheridan was a starting QB.
Haven't seen Michigan piss anything away this badly since approximately the early 00s.
I'm seething. I seriously cannot believe what I just watched.
October 12th, 2013 at 10:12 PM ^
Well said. Sad day. WTF!
October 12th, 2013 at 9:30 PM ^
October 12th, 2013 at 9:31 PM ^
got like two carries and one of those he was hit as he got the ball.
It's time to bench Toussaint and see what Green can do with more than a token carry or two a game.
October 12th, 2013 at 9:34 PM ^
October 12th, 2013 at 9:40 PM ^
Amen. The amazing thing was we managed to move the ball at all after Lewan was injured.
October 12th, 2013 at 9:48 PM ^
He did for about 10 years. Mere mortals not so much.
October 12th, 2013 at 10:11 PM ^
Agreed,
The problem is that both our lines are too small. Hoke is working to correct that.
October 13th, 2013 at 4:19 AM ^
No, we have a bigger, more talented OL than 90% of the teams we play.

Now anticipating an Indiana win next week despite their shredded defense because we'll just be like nah thanks, we'll run it for no gain.

Caring about college sports is really stupid. We just watched 4.5 hrs of football. We're all suffering now. And for what? Would anything real have been accomplished if they'd won? No.
College sports are a loser's bet, sucking up your time and energy, giving no one anything real in return.

(I can't see for sure but the evidence would seem to back that up) I'll cave your account because we've been told to do it when asked, but if you're ever interested in coming back on here, find a way to let me know. You've been one of my favorite posters here since I joined and it's a shame to see you go.
