It would be nice to see NW beat Stanford. I always like to see the B1G win, with the exception of 2 teams, of course.

I don't condone what happened at those universities, but yes, I do still cheer for them. One other that I forgot was PSU. I will never cheer for them again.

I think the guys at Zingerman's consulted on the menu. They have some of the same sandwiches (different names).

Clayton Thorson really putting on a clinic for the Wildcats right now - 1 for 2 with 2 yards passing. Fortunately, the rushing game is right there to support them with a whole three yards.
Of course, it isn't like Stanford is knocking Northwestern around right now, but they do at least have more than 10 yards of total offense.

Shaw really hasn't lost a step taking over from Jim Harbaugh and what even more interesting is that schematically they aren't any different. They have stuck to what Harbaugh brought to Stanford and run with it. They probably will be competitive for quite some time.

the Stanford OL is looking worse than Michigan's. If Stanford is indeed superior to Michigan, this is going to be one tough season for the Maize and Blue.

to defeat Northwestern! They look fairly stout on defense. Quick LB!
September 5th, 2015 at 2:05 PM ^
We lost to the Utes by a TOUCHDOWN! Why are you guys are acting like the season is already lost? Hoping to beat Northwestern...
September 5th, 2015 at 2:13 PM ^
Because the offense isn't looking a bit better than last year would be my guess.

long time friend/fraternity brother and u of m ball player has a son on that kent state team. go flash!

Let me know when De'Veon Smith gets one of those and struggles and come back to me.

The OL desperately needs the touch of a healthy Drake Johnson to help them out.

There was only one lane that size...and yes, he missed it. But no Michigan RB has gotten push on the OL since Mike Hart was running off the left side behind Jake Long.
We can knock Smith all we want, but the holes aren't there. And it's not like he's bouncing it outside every carry like Mike Shaw. He's fighting and beast moding his way for 2-3 yards that aren't even there half the time.
Drake Johnson is better fit, yes, because he also is tough as hell and he has more speed where the other 3 don't. But Drake Johnson wasn't going for big yardage versus Utah. There was nothing there.
I'd like to see us go less MANBALL and try to open running lanes via the spread like we did at times with Brandon Minor.

I saw two...only one was the one we all know and discuss. Where were all these holes he missed?
I call bullshit, people just want something to complain about.
Utah has a GREAT RB...he didn't have many holes either. Smith looked just like Booker and vice versa. Both ran hard and made the most of what was there.
They both played REALLY tough front 7s...that's what happens when you don't have a dominant OL and you go up against a dominate DL. Is Booker all of a sudden trash with no vision? No. We were just pretty damn good.
Only difference between the two was Booker was a threat in the passing game and Smith can't catch for shit.

Wow, did those look good! I might do that next Saturday morning.
September 5th, 2015 at 12:39 PM ^
stilll very early but either NW is gonna be decent this year or stanford is not as good as everyone thought.
September 5th, 2015 at 12:47 PM ^
Yes, it is hard to tell. I guess I would lean toward NW being good this year, but what do I know? The Wildcats' DL is creating a lot of pressure on the QB.

I believe it is so I'll give him at least a half to settle into being a collegiate QB.
