It's my take.  That player (punter) is new to amercian football.  It was just a bad deal. Not a good snap, guys didn't give him any help blocking and I am sure he was certainly in a panic.  I agree, what I would of done is just ran another run play or just kneel down and see what happens with like 6 to 8 secs left.  I get it.

What I am saying is we could of put the game away long ago.  The last play of course lost us the game.  Jake has consistently been over the top terrible with the long ball.  From Utah to this game.  We played to not lose because he can't hit the deep shot even though our guys get open very often on those.  I'm not focusing on one play (the end of the game) as much as I am focusing on a glaring issue.  That's all.  I just have a different perspective and don't focus on the negative ending verses what I think the over all bigger problem is.  We could / should of been up by another TD easy.  Going all the way back to Utah, how many times were guys open deep and he just over threw them time and time again.  I know I know .. could-a-should-a-woulda. 

The loss sucks ... and a terrible way to lose at that.  Was it he wrong play call .... hmmmm I don't know, that guy has been pretty damn good punting the ball. Had the play gone off without a hitch no one would be saying .. "why did he do that ... why that play .... fall on in ... kneel down ... run .... " etc.

I choose to not look at that play verses the constant safe throws etc etc because the guy just can't hit anyone in stride on a deep ball. 

So .. that's that.  Crappy loss ..... maybe at a good time to really piss the guys off to just want to rip people up the rest of the way through. Hard to get down on this as these kids are playing as hard as they can play and sometimes stuff just happens.  Again ... Next ...... On to Minnesota and I hope they take every bit of aggrivation out on them and we dominate.

Single worst play of football since the day the game was invented. To have dominated in all phases pretty much the entire game, only to lose like that? Colorado's Hail Mary was far easier to swallow than this!

take my life over a game, but if there ever was a game that would make me stand in traffic. 

And I'd like to give the biggest fuck you on earth to the internet for claiming Blondies was a Michigan bar. 

I just watched that shit in an entire bar full of Sparties. 

I will literally never go to that bar again. For anything. Ever.

Anyone that truly knows UM football knows that this is a cursed team with absolutely no luck. When will it end? never. hope all you arrogant fucks that thought sparty had no shot really enjoyed that ending, bc its douches like you that started this curse to begin with.

This was the most brutal way to lose. There are so many things that had to happen, even within that one play, to make it go wrong like it did.

That said; we will likely go 9-3 with the slim possibility of 8-4. That's exactly what we expected. This sucks in every imaginable way. I can't find the words to describe it. But now we have to cheer for osu to beat MSU and we beat osu. If that happens, well then all bets are off.

It's going to be a long 5 & 6 weeks.

we lost to Colorado in our house on a ridiculous desperation pass on the last play.

In 1996 we went into those motherfuckers' house and we beat those motherfuckers down.

Next year we will go into Sparty's house and beat those motherfuckers down.
