Props to Stevie Brown, that take down near the end of the half was big time! We have slowly been talking up Stevie, it's time to forget the past and embrace the present, the man has been reborn.

The INT was huge too. If we can get some more pressure on the QB, maybe we'll see more plays like that one.
October 3rd, 2009 at 1:46 PM ^
If we could stop a friggin' third down. 3rd and 17, 3rd and 8, 3rd and whatever, MSU just keeps converting them. It's killing us.
And just as I finished typing that, Roh hits Cousins and Warren gets an INT!
October 3rd, 2009 at 1:36 PM ^
They keep talking about MSU "establishing the run"
MSU has 83 yards rushing. 30 by WR K Martin on two end arounds and 23 by Cousins on unplanned scrables.
That leaves 30 yards to the traditional MSU running game.
Also, the omission of MSU "establishing a pitch-and-catch passing game" is also a notable error.
October 3rd, 2009 at 1:43 PM ^
an understatement. Nothing over the top, but they are eating us alive underneath. There is no pressure whatsoever.
October 3rd, 2009 at 1:50 PM ^
4th and inches on the MSU 17 and they try a fake punt? If you're gonna go for it, GO FOR IT. Just QB sneak with Tate. That was terrible.
October 3rd, 2009 at 2:15 PM ^
I'm all for The Space Emperor faking punts.. but that was just bad. It's going to take me a while to get over that one. I just don't see how they can justify faking a punt on 4th and inches that close to the goal line.
This game is starting to get ugly..

Denard Robinson seeing some playing time, but when you're down 14 points at the start of the 4th quarter, WTF are they thinking? Three and out and they lost 14 yards in the process. I don't think Tate has played bad...couple of dropped passes and he's been getting pressured...and Tate has also been strong in the 4th quarter. Down 14, you need to drive the field and put some points up, but you put in Denard, who is pretty much a runner? I'm not following some of the decisions the coaches are making today, but maybe that's just me.
Michigan just recovered a fumble, started to drive (with Tate), and now Stonum loses a fumble. Friggin' A, man...
October 3rd, 2009 at 2:28 PM ^
Yeah I really don't get what's going on here.. this is a completely different team. I know we've come back a couple times this year but we won't today if we continue playing like this.
October 3rd, 2009 at 1:54 PM ^
Four point's saved. Still a one possession game.
October 3rd, 2009 at 2:29 PM ^
STONUM FUMBLED THE BALL
STONUM FUMBLED THE BALL

At least we saw some signs of offensive life.
Nice three-and-out by the D afterward
October 3rd, 2009 at 2:37 PM ^
instead of three incompletions.
Roundtree with a step and Forcier has time.
Minor falls down.
Roundtree drops (with a hit), though it wouldn't have been a 1st down.
Still not over.
October 3rd, 2009 at 2:37 PM ^
How is it that we're making Cousins look like the best QB in the nation right now? Did that run really just happen?
October 3rd, 2009 at 2:45 PM ^
Just made up for that fumble with that TD catch. Four minutes left, down seven, come on defense!
October 3rd, 2009 at 3:03 PM ^
Yeah!
October 3rd, 2009 at 3:04 PM ^
This game is killing me.. in a good way now. Go Blue!
October 3rd, 2009 at 3:04 PM ^
They think it's over? It ain't over! We're taking it into OVERTIME!
October 3rd, 2009 at 3:15 PM ^
3rd down
October 3rd, 2009 at 3:20 PM ^
What a bummer.
I really fucking hate State too.
October 3rd, 2009 at 3:26 PM ^
To an otherwise outstanding come back. We really had no business being in this game after how terrible we were the first three quarters, but Tate is gold in the 4th quarter. The INT in overtime sucked, but it was a great diving grab by the MSU player in the end zone. Regardless of the finish, Tate is the man. I just wish we could have seen that intensity and urgency out of the team the other three quarters.
