2009 Michigan vs ND on BTN
I was watching some of it for the first time on TV. Obi Ezeh really struggled in the couple of opening drives that I watched. Missed tackles, unable to get off the blocks. I really hope he turns around and finishes strong this year.
It is nice to watch a game and not have to take baby aspirin. It's sad that I know I'm going to die watching a UM football game. Till then, Go Blue!
I still get worked up watching replays of Michigan games, even when I know the outcome.
And I can only watch replays of games that Michigan wins. Unfortunately, there are way too many epic losses being replayed by ESPN Classic or the BTN.
the main thing i took away from that game was "hey, i have seen that girl before. oh yeah that guy's avatar"
I still have it on my Tivo from September. One of the things I noticed is what we saw later in the year, Tate taking off too early and getting caught from behind. Also waving the ball around and not protecting it. The comments of the announcers struck me as well-Notre Dame had the superior personnel and should have won going away. A tribute to our boys that they hung in and scored the upset.
Watching him over power people both with the ball and when blocking really makes me think if he stays healthy he could contribute on the next level...good luck to him
that was fun.
obviously everyone knows about the pass to matthews FTW, but the play two plays before where Tate scrambled like mad and got the ball to Savoy on the 3 was huge. Can't wait to see the strides he has made this year.
but Matt Millen is a god-awful analyst.
During that game I spent more time yelling at Millen for being an idiot than I did at Tate for not tucking the ball when he scrambles.
I disagree, there are much worse analyst. With out Millen we wouldn't have
"There's a jock strap on the field. And it belongs to Darius Fleming."
Anyone who has watched a college football game on ESPN 2 agrees with the above statement. Pam Wards voice forces me to watch the 2002 MSU game on mute.
a college football game knows the difference between the play by play person (Ward) and the color analyst (Millen).
Do NFL commentators count? If so, I present for your examination one Mr. Dan Dierdorf.
"If he would have caught that ball, it would have been a reception."
how often they are commenting on how much louder the stadium is with the new structures. Can't wait to help keep the noise level up week 1 against UConn...
I was so glad to be there for this game, one of the best I've seen in person as they scored the game winning td in the corner I was in, although as it happened I couldn't see the endzone once he scored since everyone stood up.
Also not having to listen to Millen call the game was an awesome bonus, that guy sucks.
to know who those analysts that are 'worse' are in college football consiering Millen is in his first full year on the job and based on his previous employment has slightly more credibility than Terrell Owns.
"based on his previous employment has slightly more credibility than Terrell Owns"
Yo Owens is a real football player (not that Millen wasnt) but Millen is not a real football exec. his results in Detroit speak to his real football knowledge.
I would say Millen has slightly more credibiltiy than Beyonce.
