Michigan at Michigan State - Game Thread - 12:00 PM - Fox
People liked the interactive graphic/app so here it is again. The press has had something like this for years that we use to pump out interesting data during and after games. I figured you folk might want to play with it. I think if you’re on a desktop you have to use that popout icon on the bottom-right.
Let's get a win so I can have some quiet.

Shot testosterone? Really?
October 30th, 2021 at 11:48 AM ^
Yea sir…one shot though…my bodybuilding years are in the rear view…or it would have been about 5 shots.

Per Zach Shaw:
ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Based on pregame warmups, it appears that the Michigan football team will be close to full-strength for its much-anticipated matchup against Michigan State.
As the sixth-ranked Wolverines warmed up to take on the eighth-ranked Spartans, offensive linemen Zak Zinter and Trevor Keegan both warmed up after not playing last week. Zinter warmed up with the line's first-string, while Karsen Barnhart took over Trevor Keegan's left guard spot in warmups.
Wide receiver Roman Wilson, who only played five snaps last week as he continues to work through a wrist injury, also warmed up with a smaller cast on his hand than he had even last week. Edge defender Taylor Upshaw, who also missed last week's game for undisclosed reasons, warmed up in full uniform.
The only major absence for the Wolverines was third-string running back Donovan Edwards. A Michigan spokesperson confirmed Saturday that the freshman did not travel with the Wolverines due to injury. In all, the only two-deep player Michigan was missing Saturday morning was wide receiver Ronnie Bell, who has been ruled out for the season after enduring an injury in the Wolverines' season-opener Sept. 4.
Playing in a top-10 matchup against Michigan State for the first time since 1964, Michigan (4-0 Big Ten, 7-0 overall) will want all hands on deck. The two teams are the only remaining unbeaten teams in the Big Ten, and the Spartans (4-0, 7-0) are looking for a second straight win over the Wolverines under second-year coach Mel Tucker.
Michigan State is also healthier than it has been in weeks. Defensive end Drew Beesley and running back Elijah Collins both participated in pre-game warmups in full uniform. Beesley hasn’t played since suffering a lower-leg injury in the Nebraska game, while Collins has been out with a high-ankle sprain since the second game of the year. Backup quarterback Anthony Russo, offensive lineman Matt Carrick and defensive end Jack Camper are notable players out for the Spartans.

Yes, I really enjoyed the graphic last week. Thank you for posting again.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:10 AM ^
GO BLUE!!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:12 AM ^
Waste these fuckers.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:12 AM ^
Did I miss the preview post somehow?
October 30th, 2021 at 11:27 AM ^
It's there. Try again.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:33 AM ^
I haven't found it either. When was it published?
October 30th, 2021 at 11:43 AM ^
I'm talking about Brian's front page "Preview", it's not there, went all the way back to Monday...
October 30th, 2021 at 11:47 AM ^
Brian is making sure that he's not part of the curse
October 30th, 2021 at 12:07 PM ^
Maybe a good thing, but I'm a creature of habit...
Go Blue.
Win the game.

It's right next to the advert for a sale on left-handed smoke shifters.
October 30th, 2021 at 12:06 PM ^
I don't care who you are, that's funny.
October 30th, 2021 at 12:01 PM ^
Yeah I haven't found it either. I haven't missed reading one in 13 yrs so I'm kinda freaking out
October 30th, 2021 at 11:13 AM ^
Go Blue!!!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:17 AM ^
It's cold, it's gray.
Perfect!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:19 AM ^
This should now be stickied to the top of the board until about 4 PM. Hopefully, it appears when everyone refreshed - I think there were some odd background issues last week and not everyone saw the thread right away.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:20 AM ^
I could do without Tom Izzo.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:25 AM ^
That's what his wife said.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:22 AM ^
I hope the offense is more dynamic Today. Sparty will be trying to stop our running game. Cade needs to have a good passing game Today, much like he did against WI
October 30th, 2021 at 11:29 AM ^
I hope Cade finishes the game 4/5 80%, 120 yards.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:50 AM ^
Nice! Running game goes for 200 and JJ in the forth quarter.
October 30th, 2021 at 12:48 PM ^
If you meant the first quarter, you nearly nailed it!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:22 AM ^
Smash those green pumpkins!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:25 AM ^
I'll be watching Michigan in the basement and my wife will be watching Wales take on New Zealand upstairs in the living room.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:26 AM ^
I hope we see a replay of the game in Madison. The defense out for blood and the msu offense just confused. I don’t know if we have it to beat osu but this team does have something special. The culture, the team, LFG!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:27 AM ^
sounds like beasley will go for MSU
October 30th, 2021 at 11:32 AM ^
Of course he is! They’d lose 3 games straight sitting multiple players to have them back for Michigan
October 30th, 2021 at 11:27 AM ^
The only difference between Mike Hart’s postgame presser today and 2007 is that this time around, we aren’t even going to let little brother get a lead first.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:28 AM ^
When was the last time you were this excited? It was probably ‘18 osu for me. Looking for the opposite result here ?
October 30th, 2021 at 11:33 AM ^
2003 Ohio State. Because our opponent is about to get EXPOSED.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:53 AM ^
Hell yeah! I’m usually super pessimistic but I just have a good feeling UM is going to open a can of whoop ass!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:28 AM ^
Go Blue!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:31 AM ^
I'm awake I'm hyped. Beat the Spartans
October 30th, 2021 at 11:40 AM ^
Word out of E Lansing is the game will be postponed until Brian's game preview goes up
October 30th, 2021 at 11:40 AM ^
Here for nice things, the Sparty beatdown that awaits, and most important, another win.
Win the game. Go Blue !
October 30th, 2021 at 11:41 AM ^
If preseason you were told one of these would be a matchup between two undefeated, top-10 teams, which would you have picked?
MICHIGAN-Michigan State
Ohio State-Penn State
Iowa-Wisconsin
Georgia-Florida
October 30th, 2021 at 11:44 AM ^
Half of us expected Harbaugh to be fired by now lmao
I love where this team is at.
Football Saturdays are fun again
October 30th, 2021 at 11:50 AM ^
Well, I expected us to be CFP champs.
But I just operate that way on principle until outcomes prove otherwise.
Still think it!
October 30th, 2021 at 11:43 AM ^
Fine. Whatever. Im Here.
October 30th, 2021 at 11:45 AM ^
Missed you
