Michigan 78, Rutgers 0
[Photo: Patrick Barron/MGoBlog]
Rutgers punted 16 times tonight, surpassing the 1938 University of Chicago team for the second-most by a Michigan opponent in a single game.*
The University of Chicago abolished their football program in 1939.
Win with cruelty.

*Ohio State, with 21, is the record-holder thanks to the ludicrous 1950 Snow Bowl.

Rutgerd.
LOL!!! Typo, or not, it fits. Being a Rutgers fan would give one GERD. So yes, Rutgerd fits!

I believe they prefer to referred to now as "Buttgers"
October 11th, 2016 at 10:09 AM ^
Whoops!
or maybe RutGERG.

... that I like:
UM finished with exactly twice as many points as Rutgers had yards.

The funnest thing was watching Ash take his beating. He knew it was coming, and he knew there was nothing he could do to slow it down. He knew what Jim MF Harbaugh was going to do... I just loved it!

His team was so poorly coached. I have never seen a Michigan opponent so overmatched. The looked disorganized on offense, out of position and sloppy tackling on defense.
Ash appears to be in over his head as a Head Coach in my opinion.

1.3 points per minute of game time.
October 8th, 2016 at 11:41 PM ^
Is it bad that I was disappointed when they got their first down? Normal shut outs don't do it for me anymore. Thanks, Harbaugh.
October 8th, 2016 at 11:46 PM ^
I was legitimately pissed when they returned that INT that got called back rightfully so.
October 8th, 2016 at 11:52 PM ^
I was actually less upset about that becuase they still hadn't given up a first down.

i was pissed when they got positive yards
October 9th, 2016 at 1:32 AM ^
If we hadn't fiddle farted around on the first two possessions, we coulda dropped a C Spot on them. 100, sounds nice.
October 9th, 2016 at 11:28 AM ^
Rutgers had a 3rd and 2 sometime in the third quarter (I think) and my initial thought was "What the hell's going on with the defense?" Apparently, I recalibrate my expectations quickly.
October 8th, 2016 at 11:49 PM ^
I've never laughed so hard at a football game in my life.

Nothing left but shadows.

So do we still have to wait for 10/29/16 against Michigan State before we can say that we're pretty good?
October 9th, 2016 at 12:14 AM ^
Its good that Rutgers is in the B1G. Helps with recruiting in NJ.
October 9th, 2016 at 5:31 PM ^
It's even better when they bring in 200 recruits so it's like we they can all get an OV to see Michigan off-campus
October 9th, 2016 at 12:14 AM ^
You just KNOW University Of Chicago was watching this like we were watching AppState versus Tennessee...

Yeah that would have been a great highlite for the heisman reel that will now unfortunately be forgotten. That was a phenominal return for which we are still not sure if there was a true penalty or not.

Best quote from the article:
The announced attendance at High Point Solutions Stadium: 53,292. That's 26,646 per Rutgers first down.

I feel comfortable with Higdon and Evans as our RBs moving forward.

You know the funny thing is though? Harbaugh didn't really do anything to run up the score. The one two-point conversion, they spotted a tendency and exploited it, when the game was still in doubt in a technical sense, and then never did it again even though the tendency was still there. The starters sat almost the whole second half. O'Korn and Morris combined to throw the ball three times, all in the third quarter.
All we did in the second half was have our backups run the ball and we still scored five touchdowns on them, which itself would be considered a blowout.

Rutgers has had 155 yards in the last two games combine, and they gave up 136 points in those two games.

Another wrinkle for teams to consider. Maybe it will keep teams from selling out on trying to block the PAT. See FSU/Miami last night - the blocked PAT won FSU the game perhaps.
