Holy shit, Taco got held so bad there.
December 29th, 2013 at 12:04 AM ^
And naturally the refs ignorned it. Such a blatant hold. Easy call to make.
December 29th, 2013 at 12:03 AM ^
He was clearly down short of the first down. CLEARLY.
December 29th, 2013 at 12:03 AM ^
Yeah short for sure, I think.
December 29th, 2013 at 12:03 AM ^
There is no way that is a first down.

That fucking QB run right there was ridiculous. Holy fucking shit could someone please make a fucking play?
They give up extra yards at the end of every play.

Be honest. If you took off the uniform's and replaced them with Purdue's of the Joe Tiller era would there be any difference btw those Purdue teams and UM program the past 6-7 years? A good to above average QB, a finesse offense whose line generally sucks year after year ...after year. Some nice WRs, average running game. A finesse defense that is dominated at the LOS when they play any above average team.
Michigan outrecruits Purdue of any era by a wide margin which makes this comparison even worse. Michigan far out recruits KSU but you can see an elite coach, coach circles around us. I dont care what happens tonight or next year - the evidence is on the field the last 2 years (2011 seems to be the anomaly) ... without elite talent our coaching staff cannot get elite results. And that tells you all you need to know about the future of the program. Hoke recruits good enough there will be a lot of 9 win seasons out there but if you truly believe this is an elite staff that will take UM to the promised land well I'd like to have what you are drinking. And for those who say bust the bank for big time coaches, they are paying these guys like big time coaches - Hoke is #9 in the country I believe and we have 2 of the top 20 highest paid coordinator in all of college football. Sorry even Mattison, I was a big believer in 2011 but his conservativism is mind numbing and I am sick of reading howwe dont have athletes when UM has thepick of the litter and has better recruits than Wisconsin or MSU every year.
2014 will be another 7, 8, or upside 9 win season of relative mediocre with no margin for error at safety or offensive tackle, and being outcoached or out-toughed by the better teams. It is amazing to hear what Hoke said he wanted at UM and he cannot build and the apologists all just blame it on youth. Harbaugh built the program in his mold in 3-4 years, they beat top 10 teams twice in his 3rd year. They were tough even when losing. Dantonio in year 4 at MSU was about to run off back to back 11 win seasons. Is that coming here? Nah. Sorry this is not a youth problem - this is a coaching problem from top to bottom. It is average coaching. Paid like elite coaching. And that wont change if they win 56-28 tonight.

Well said. It won't get read by many but there's a lot of truth in there.
As I type this Wormley misses on a wide open blitz and K-State QB completes to somebody wide the eff open downfield.
December 29th, 2013 at 12:04 AM ^
Wait,did I hear that right, KSU lost to SDakota St.

Are you fucking kidding me?!?!?!? He was clearly down short of the first!!!

Been happy with Shane thus far. That is all I can say positive so I'll just leave it there.

What. The. Fuck.

Nobody home. Damn!
December 29th, 2013 at 12:07 AM ^
lol. How'd I know we'd still give up a first down? I didn't think it would only take one play though
