Anyone remember this game? Oh right, Pikiell admitted they’re going to settle for bad twos and then they did.
3. Raw Takes, Football Coaches, Around the Big Ten

We manage to keep it on the rails long enough to talk about Illinois before descending into Michigan State basketball talk. Three of five, baby! MSU is on a roll!

starts at 1:10:01
We bring in the Sklars to talk about our John U Bacon roast on March 6 to save the Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase. Then we play the Feud, as the Brothers Sklar have to guess our top ten Michigan barnburners in the last 20 years.

Couple hockey suggestions:
The Hunwick NCAA tournament game against I think North Dakota that felt like a 60 minute power play and we won. Scooter Vaughn scored, I think.
The game after the Molly game against Colorado College.

The Texas Rose Bowl? And Braylon fest. I really don't remember that MSU game at Breslin
February 22nd, 2021 at 7:41 PM ^
I don't remember why we left off the Rose Bowl. It was on our original list.

1st quarter was slow? Looking at the box.. Then every other quarter had 21-24 points per.

Ace stole my raw take on hockey being scored by aggregate. Outrage!
February 23rd, 2021 at 12:42 AM ^
Ace, did I hear you mention there’s some smoke about Mike Smith coming back? I hadn’t heard such a thing but I really hope it’s true! I think Michigan would be the preseason favorites if he returns
February 23rd, 2021 at 11:01 AM ^
Yeah 247 reported it last week.

The top 3 barn burners that come to mind for me are:
- 2010 Football vs Illinois
- 2017 NCAA opening round win vs Oklahoma St.
- 2018 Basketball loss to Purdue (though all games against them that year were top notch)
February 23rd, 2021 at 9:21 AM ^
That OK State game was like watching the NBA.

Is this not showing up for anyone else in Apple podcasts?
February 23rd, 2021 at 9:53 AM ^
Same. Not available on Apple podcasts for some reason.
February 23rd, 2021 at 11:10 AM ^
I see it on Apple Podcasts and it plays: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mgoblog-the-mgopodcast/id331191165
I know there's been a lot of issues with other podcasters (several of my favorites have recently brought it up) with Apple Podcasts. Most Apple users I know use Overcast because Apple's podcast app is awful.

Moore has been a TE coach for his entire career, and at Central he was the run game coordinator for a season. I have to think that he's taught a lot of blocking, especially to guys who are often under coached at that skill coming out of high school. That doesn't guarantee he will work out as an OL coach, but I have to think that Harbaugh would have assessed his skills to determine whether he could do the job. And also having 2 years experience in Gattis system must be a benefit.

not being in ann arbor since 2011, i was shocked to learn AA Comedy Showcase is not below Seva's anymore...

This cell phone thing needs to die. Here's the rule as written:
Rule 4, Section 4, Article 2
Art. 2. A technical foul shall be assessed to a coach and all bench personnel for
the following infractions:
Using electronic transmission (including but not limited to headsets,
telephones, television, radio, audio or video Internet broadcast, heart
monitor devices, computers), or knowledge gained resulting from thereof,
for coaching purposes, to communicate to and/or from the bench area or
using replay equipment at courtside for coaching purposes. (emphasis added).
If the call was to set up a post game meal, then there was no violation of the rule and thus no technicals should have been assessed. The phone was not used for coaching purposes. If the rule banned all cell phone use, there are all kinds of examples to demonstrate the absurdity of that rule. One example, let's say someone on the bench has a medical emergency, can a coach not use his phone to call 911 without being assessed a technical? Doesn't seem like the kind of behavior the NCAA would want to discourage.
