Looking forward to doing more games this Fall
2008 Wisconsin at Michigan
2008 Michigan at Minnesota
Thank you.
Thanks for these and the 2006 games you uploaded at mgovideo recently.
Highlights from the only two games from last year that are worth revisiting. Nothing else happened in the 2008 football season. Nothing.
Exactly. Nothing. No other games, and Michigan finished undefeated and wqon the MNC.
We also played Miami of Ohio.
Ah - Wisconsin. My cousin Ryan left that game at halftime, said he felt sick all afternoon after what transpired. Me, I had the best afternoon in quite some time.
My friend showed up at half time of the Wisco game. He made fun of everyone he walked by that were walking home.
Unknown fact: The real reason we won was the big tip that he left bongo man that day.
I was doing my college visit to UMich on that weekend, I believe the game was September 26th. My friend had gotten one of his friend's tickets because they couldn't go so I was able to go to the game and sit in the student section. The first half was literally one of the more painful things I've ever had to sit through in my life. I even remember joking after Threet threw the touchdown to Koger, I said, "Comeback time." Of course being jovial because our offense had 19 total yards in the first half and negative passing yards I believe. But as we kept on coming back, and after the interception return for the touchdown, the energy of the crowd and everything else was unforgettable. And the sight of the whole team in front of the student section is now seared into my memory. I remember walking down the street with all of the attendees, and everyone was chanting, "It's great, to be, a Michigan Wolverine." And I'm now proud to say that I can say that and mean it. Go Blue.
Right after a completion to Odoms at the 2:41 mark...
a reference to Sheridan as "...very accurate with the ball, even throwing on the run..."
run. And hide. Because what will happen next will be unspeakable horror.
Having said that, I have so much credit for the kid. He came to Michigan to pretty much get coached on how to be a coach (following his dad's footsteps). Then he was thrown into the fire unsuspectingly and never complained/quit. He played hard all the time and you could see in watching those Minnesota highlights that he became somewhat of a leader. I guess I just feel bad for kid sometimes.
Having said that, I sometimes have nightmares about being wide open in the end zone and Sheridan wobbling one into the downs-marker.
I agree. I also agree that I hope his contributions come from the sideline this year. He's the kind of player that can help make a team better with his attitude.
We really had a schizophrenic defense last season. There were times (Minnesota, second half of Utah, most of Wisconsin) where it looked like a top-notch unit. But then we also allowed teams like Purdue and Illinois to shred us.
Really good stuff, many thanks.
Anybody else really hate the jumping chest bump thing? I'm so glad I don't have to watch Morgan Trent doing that ever again. I just hope the young guys thought he looked as dumb as he really did, and won't follow his example. For anyone that doesn't know what I'm talking about, skip to 5:55 of the Minnesota highlight on this page. I hate it. I'd rather see a celebration like Harrison in the play before the Trent INT.
WHat? Seriously? I think that celebration is pretty cool, especially when photographers get a still photo of both players in mid air - especially when they are pretty high up (showing some athleticism even when celebrating). The Harrison celebration was simply lame.
but what?!?
Of all the odious celebrations in football, that's the one you hate?
wasn't me either
EDIT: but I am guessing that is you tpilews that gave me a -1? I hate these points
but both of us getting negative points simply for stating our strong disagreement? Someone is unclear on the concept.
was on my birthday last year. I thought there must be a god after that game.
