Most of the Stadium was still full long after the game. I'm sure Brian will mention it and capture it better, but weall just wanted to be there and keep being there. All the good wasn't gone yet.

(To get a bit purple,) Kind of like the fog that started coming in after halftime that by the end was almost a haze.

Most of the students stayed for a postgame show that lasted until a quarter past midnight or later. This included a victory lap/on field interview for Denard. 

 

By then lt sounded like even the announcer was caught up in it a little more than usual.

Don't forget the tribute to Desmond! I love how the way they chose to honor him. And what I love even more is that the first night he wore the "retired" 21 Hemingway averaged 55 yards a catch on 3 catches! 

"Michigan Defense" is dominating everything, in every aspect of life. That's a rough definition.

By half time I was regreting flying in from Vegas but by the end of the game I was hugging, screaming and high fiving people around me. I sat at the corner of the end zone where the last TD was made. When the game was over it seemed like no one was leaving ( except the ND fans) for a good 20 minutes cheering and singing.  Great night and positive national exposure!

There was an extremely high quantity of hotties in night jerseys out today. It made AA look great.

Except for the one in a 2007 season schedule shirt. Seriously... I don't care how hot you are, when you remind me of The Horror, I'm going to run the other way.

Who is the blonde guy in the "Big House Football" shirt with the 80's hair and the goatee in the back of the Hoke interview? That's a lot of hair!

Michigan great and former NFL vet Steve Everitt.  Guy marches to his own drummer, in a totally awesome way.

Desmond had a touching speech before the game I thought.  Youre right everything was perfect.

It didn't happen.  Things really ran smoothly.  The day was freakishly perfect.  Incoming traffic was so widely dispersed, nobody had much of a problem.  Exiting traffic was so deleriously happy, nobody cared.  And in fact, this was not as bad as MSU last year. 

I was wrong.  This unbelievable game has guaranteed another night game.

Brandon was really happy.  I saw Bill Martin and he was too.  Oh, and, uh Shane Morris was reeeeeaalllyy happy.

The entire stadium singing God Bless America was one of the most moving things I have ever been apart of.

I will admit, I got choked up with joy, watching one of the most exciting games in Michigan history, and seeing the atmosphere first hand after the game is something I will take to the grave with me. 

You know, Dude, I myself dabbled in pacifism once. Not in 'Nam of course.

Definitely one of the best games I have attended and by far THE BEST crowd atmosphere I have ever witnessed!

If any of the recruits at the game were "on the fence," I think we now know where they stand!

So fortunate to have attended!

Don't forget the halftime show with the two guys parachuting into the stadium (at night!).  That was awesome.
