the just released schedules were a flat-out statement that the B10 doesn't believe SOS will matter in playoff selection
Anybody have an Injury Update
I read on the Michigan 247 board that Countess had a knee sprain. Don't know the accuracy of it or the seriousness of a knee sprain if it's true.
I will cry tears of joy if it is just a sprain. They'll need the MRI to be sure though.
"Michigan Defense" is dominating everything, in every aspect of life. That's a rough definition.

I hope it's nothing as serious as a knee sprain. Countess has been described as a workhorse on this defense. If there's something wrong with his leg, they're going to shoot him.
Hail.
How does 247 know this information and not the general public? They have a trainer as inside info-sharer or something?
"It would be a travesty, it would be ridiculous to all of a sudden come back and get the feeling back, get the health back, feel good again and then all of a sudden go throw some other colors on my shirt and go coach."
that he was hearing knee strain, idk how to link to a tweet though so here's it copy pasted
No official word from Michigan on Blake Countess, but heard after the game that the early word is it's NOT an ACL.#LittleGoodNewsOnBadNight
Hearing knee strain as opposed to ACL. Time will tell. No official word one way or the other from #Michigan until Monday at earliest
Have heard nothing on Lewan yet
yes, we are keeping it a secret from you
If you don't like Michigan you are a peasant
Demens will be out 2-3 weeks with a broken ego.
Not only Demens, but he entire defense. Wow, that was ugly. Good thing it is only the first game!
The defense went up against an NFL O-Line and Running Back. They made a lot of solid tackles -- don't fault them for their competition.
"It would be a travesty, it would be ridiculous to all of a sudden come back and get the feeling back, get the health back, feel good again and then all of a sudden go throw some other colors on my shirt and go coach."
I know. I'm just not telling.

It's on the VIP board.
I put up a tough front, but deep down I just want to be held.
I'm assuming Demens got pulled. Errybody got pulled tonight
But I'm curious about Countess/Lewan updates as well. Your thread is a lifeboat of usefulness amidst a sea of orca piss and cat dung.
all injuries are life threatening. at least that's the conclusion i made. you can call me webmd if you like
"Michael Rothstein@mikerothstein
Hoke had no update on Countess or Lewan."
So I'm guessing no updates until tomorrow at the earliest.
Felt like Gibbons tried to kick my groin while thinking of a brunette.
Knowing Hoke we won't know for sure until the Air Force game starts
Every Alabama player is fine. Thanks for the concern.
my feelings are hurt and I have a headache from that game... I'm going to sleep.
Countess and Lewan are injured.
"I'm not a vegetarian b/c I love animals. I'm a vegetarian b/c I hate plants"
Lewan and Countess each have a boo-boo.
/Hoke press conference
If anyone had an injury update, i'm sure they would post a thread much better than the last ten threads.

Catastrophically kicked in.
2013 resolution - make it onto the 2014 favorite MGoPosters post, not ironically
MANBALL suffered a season ending injury. He should be back in 2-3 years.
obvious no practice. Back at the hotel and still can't believe our top receiver is a QB that can't catch and the only offensive scheme we can come up with that works is the long pass. Watch some Troy Smith video for godsakes. The fact that we are 2 years, at least, undermanned doesn't help.
Go Blue !!!
Dave Brandon: Detailed and thorough investigation proves that Freep report was intentionally misleading.
Blake Countess on crutches per Mike Rothstein....

Shit.....
It's been a lot. Its been a roller coaster that for some reason seemed like it would never get good. But you know what? We kept fighting. It's like that old saying goes, "Those Who Stay Will Be Champions." -David Molk
Heather Cox mentioned something about Hoke himself being "really sick" and having "lost his voice." Anyone know what that was all about? Cold? Flu?

Hoke lost his voice - I'm sure he'll get over it, but he'd be grateful for your genuine concern.
Sure they did—after the Alabama player ran through three or four tackles first. With a few exceptions, the tackling was horrendous this evening.
He was a freshman but I've seen enough good backs to know that RB is legit. Those were Gordon and Kovacs tackles they were running through in the backfield and you know neither of those guys simply forgot how to do it. Once that tackle was broken it was 8 yards behind Barrett Jones's second block. Only running back we face who will be that dangerous against a Kovacs tackle attempt is...dammit...Le'Veon Bell.

whatever it is i say you sit lewan,countess and moore next week no matter what.

You mean for the penalties?

"I run like Hayes and I hit like... Shazor"
Are we really in a position where we can take teams like Air Force for granted and sit are best players? They had a weaning record last year and we just made Alabama look like the Emmitt Smith led Dallas Cowboys.
sam webb said early reports on countess is its NOT his acl.
Vice.com
Borges's credibility suffered an injured knee. There will be an update on its status after the air force game to see if it's a "boo-boo" or something more serious (like a level 3 DeBoard tear"
I doubt we need either Lewan or Countess for another 3 weeks when we go to South Bend. However, I really hope they see the field next week as players need game speed to work on their skills and conditioning.
Go Blue!
No place on earth I'd rather be on a football Saturday than Michigan Stadium !
