So, for the longest time I thought David's last name was Pasternack because that's the name of a company that sells RF electronics that I buy stuff from for work.

Awesome pod and I agree with Alex's take: too many mistakes and no flukes, all the talent in the world but couldn't get it done.

Missed opportunities and Minnesota was too good. The Gophers aren't better but they execute and the consistency is the difference.

Great year but just because Michigan's talent deserves banners doesn't mean it will happen.
