103 More Days
103 days till Michigan begins it's quest to defend their Big Ten Title in Football.
Let's look back and hear your favorite plays from last year.
Mine would be Mike Sainristil knocking the ball out of Stover's hands to save a TD against OSU (wish I was smart enough to embed the video), it was still a game at that point, it's crazy he was a WR on the 2019 team that destroyed ND and MSU in back to back weeks.
69-75-45-75-85
I don't start getting really excited until 102 days out.
My favorite 'play'...
Well shit, I knew I should have waited a day just for you!
You mean THIS video?
Yes, always gives me chills!
Stover's two drops/broken up passes may have been the two biggest plays in the game.
Even more enjoyable when you know that those in Buckeye circles were mentioning Stover as one of the PRIMARY examples of the new, more-physical Buckeyes who were pissed and looking for revenge going into the game last year.
Absolutely iconic Michigan defensive play. Candidate for the Mr. Rushmore of defensive plays all-time. Perfection of the play, opponent, game situation, etc.
Interesting thought: what would be on the Mt. Rushmore of Michigan defensive plays? Woodson's one-handed interception against MSU in '97 is a must.
obviously great play against msu, but the INT in the endzone in the rose bowl was way more important.
It is amazing just how close that play was. Had Stover just caught it when it hit his hands it would have been a touchdown, but he sort of gets his fingertips on it and lets go and then when he brings his hands in BAM! Mike Sanristril knocks that shit out of there after making up ground.
That's like a Woodson sideline interception right there. Next level play.
The play of the game... exceptional.
On defense for sure. Much like the 3rd down stuff by Ross in 2021 to end OSU's first drive of the second half, which changed so much about the game in Michigan's favor.
Never gets old. Go Blue!
Really loved the end-around to Wilson against TCU. Hate that we lost that game.
The Dons first long TD run against OSU … game was over at that point. Second was just glorious piling on
I don’t know man. I have lived too many tragedies.
I wasn’t comfortable until the 2nd Don galavant through the wide open space known as the Buckeye secondary.
Which historical player wore the fabled "103"?
Need a good pic of Tom Brady and Tripp Welbourne next to each other.
Me in four days...
This is a wonderful reminder to begin tailgate planning... Go Blue!
I'm pretty sure we all pretty much agree on the easy favorites. For your viewing pleasure, I'll drag a non-standard play up and present it here under the heading, schadenfreude.
Noah Ruggles: "he hooked it ...at the stroke of midnight"
He really shanked that thing. I hadn’t seen it yet. Woah.
Don't forget Sainristil had a 34-yard reception to set up a touchdown against Ohio State in 2021! I think that was his only catch of the game, but it was a big one.
Hard to pick a favorite. I've rewatched The Game multiple times and there are about 15 that are my favorite.
I do like the headbutt drawn on Gee Scott, 1st and 35. That shifted the momentum. Also loved Mikey saying, "They are what we thought they were!"
Gold, Jerry, Gold.
i remember thinking "this can't be good if a guy switches from wr to cb in his senior season and is starting". wow.
