They definitely deserved to win. OSU is going to shit on this team
September 7th, 2019 at 3:48 PM ^
I mean Metellus actually won the game for us. But the ref's mistake wasn't reviewable. Should have ended 21-7 (because the next play flipped the field) or 21-14. No OT.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:50 PM ^
STOP IT... stop playing the "what if" game and blaming refs/coincidence etc. This is the train of thought that's put this program behind the sticks... seriously!
The entitlement and arrogance needs to be thrown out the window for toughness and resolve!
September 7th, 2019 at 3:56 PM ^
Compose yourself, and accept a role for nuance in your life.
Michigan's day was unacceptable (see, I can say it, too). And there was a severe, certainly incorrect, unreviewable reffing mistake that simultaneously erased 7 M points and gave them to Army. Both can be true.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:08 PM ^
It's not what if when it actually happened.
Horrible post.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:12 PM ^
Yeah, I think "what if" is acceptable when game changing plays are irrevocably subjective.

“Toughness and resolve” is putting their O in a 3rd down passing situation and getting a sack strip. If we’re not making excuses, then Michigan deserves the W, because they scored more points.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:51 PM ^
This.
At a bottom line that mistake significantly impacted the game. At an officiating level it was a colossal sized error. Awful. I was waiting for that official to slap the Army player on the ass.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:55 PM ^
That is no excuse for us only putting up 14 in regulation! Offense needs work
September 7th, 2019 at 3:58 PM ^
At that point in the game would we not have *already* met this 14 point threshold?
You don't expect the game goes differently from up 14-7 to down 14-7?
Okay...
September 7th, 2019 at 4:12 PM ^
September 7th, 2019 at 8:59 PM ^
That's fair. My take, however simple, was simple for sake of brevity. My point was to facilitate remembering of the play and emphasize its significance. Concluding "How?" we account for its ultimate effect on score isn't my concern or - as you emphasize - ability.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:22 PM ^
Shut up with the "refs" BS. Michigan played like ass.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:59 PM ^
OSU is going to shit in their pooper cooler vs this team.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:43 PM ^
They definitely deserved to win. OSU is going to shit on this team
September 7th, 2019 at 3:45 PM ^
That’s confusing, are you calling our boys a cooler?
Lets see how this team progresses over the next few months. Get Shea healthy.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:50 PM ^
nah he would of said OSU will shit IN this team. Arguable as to whether the outcome is the same..
September 7th, 2019 at 3:52 PM ^
What about starting Dylan instead? I’m sick of hearing excuses for poor play from Shea. If he’s hurt so bad that he can’t make any throws, he shouldn’t be playing in the first place
September 7th, 2019 at 6:11 PM ^
Dylan can’t run every play
September 7th, 2019 at 3:43 PM ^
We won. Perfect time for the bye week!
September 7th, 2019 at 3:44 PM ^
Shut up. Enough of these hot takes. Army nearly took out playoff team Oklahoma last year.
If and when this team is battling for a big ten title, don’t come back. Loser.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:49 PM ^
"if and when" LOL
September 7th, 2019 at 3:53 PM ^
Just like YOUR "hot take" Sandy Repents!
No need to over analyse shit... it's still fecal matter.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:10 PM ^
I don’t have a hot take, I just told this loser to go, and repeated a fact about army v UO circa 2018.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:12 PM ^
Ah yes good to see the hivemind still strong on this board. If you don't have a "hot take" from watchin this team regress from week 1 to week 2 and are still coming up with excuses as to how they are living up to their hype then it's pretty safe to say you're going to be in for a long couple months of denial.
September 7th, 2019 at 5:28 PM ^
I am not a member of any hive. This team is not on par with Bama or Clemson, and probably not even Oklahoma with the way Hurts looked. So this year for me, comes down to beating MSU and OSU and a big ten title. I’d say that’s pretty realistic expectations, and I think it’s still realistic.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:45 PM ^
We're young on defense playing lots of new guys. We are playing a new offensive scheme. There are surely disappointments right now like penalties, particularly against veterans like Bredeson, Patterson, & Hudson. But, it's not coaching, it's execution. I don't think like we've looked like the #7 team in the nation, but I think there is room to grow into the year.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:49 PM ^
Maryland is going through a coaching change, and they put up 79 pts last week and 56 this week.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:53 PM ^
Are you serious, Clark?
September 7th, 2019 at 3:53 PM ^
Not all transitions are the same. I guess we'll know more when we play Maryland in November.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:53 PM ^
On Howard and Syracuse. Chill.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:07 PM ^
And I think that our defense actually played pretty well against Army's odd offense.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:45 PM ^
100% outcoached us.
By the way, Ed Feng, go fuck yourself and your analytics. Army does not suck. Your numbers do.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:49 PM ^
arguing with math you don't understand and something that by his own admission Ed has said is presently a small sample size. Good look. How much money did you lose today?
September 7th, 2019 at 3:45 PM ^
Yes, there's nothing to feel good about after this game. I mostly just feel bad for Army. Their kids deserved to make history.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:46 PM ^
Fuck those war criminals. Scoreboard bitch. We outlasted them like we were the NVA. Good guys always win in the end baby.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:48 PM ^
Please delete his account.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:54 PM ^
I would rather he keeps his account. Better to know who the true asshats are. He knows he a bitch and will forever be. His girlfriend was probably reamed out by a Servicemember!
September 7th, 2019 at 4:05 PM ^
Let's be honest. The loser does not have a girlfriend. The sadder and greater problem with this is people like himself are too sheltered. Living in America their whole life they don't understand how dangerous the world is but thanks to the ones that serve we live such a pampered life. Peace!!
September 7th, 2019 at 5:07 PM ^
I bet we fucked his girl!!! Hoo-RA. I’m embarrassed for you.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:49 PM ^
War criminals? Are you actually calling West Point cadets war criminals?
What an unmitigated asshole you are
September 7th, 2019 at 3:52 PM ^
I'm sorry, *war criminals in training*
Better?
September 7th, 2019 at 3:59 PM ^
Assclown
September 7th, 2019 at 4:22 PM ^
Time to maybe step away from the keyboard and ask your mom to take you to McDonald’s for a Happy Meal...
September 7th, 2019 at 3:50 PM ^
mgoblog has made the news before. We know this blog is read.
September 7th, 2019 at 3:51 PM ^
Fuck your "war criminal" bullshit. What you are saying is you didn't have the balls to sign on the dotted line. Save me the usual "I was too smart" response. Doesn't work. I served with far too many with Masters AND PhDs from every College and University one could think of. You sir, simply don't and will never have what it takes.
Other than that GO Blue!
September 7th, 2019 at 3:54 PM ^
Yes, he's a coward. Lives in the greatest country in the world because of what others sacrificed.
September 7th, 2019 at 4:04 PM ^
You sure he lives in the greatest country in the world? I think he's from Bolivia
September 7th, 2019 at 4:13 PM ^
Greatest country in the world rofl. Why the hell would a canadian or german want to live in America?
