Bryan Mac appreciation thread

Submitted by Wolverine In Iowa 68 on November 28th, 2021 at 11:19 AM

As many of us note, Opponent Watch is one of the very best articles on the board every season.

 

But for those that missed Punt/Counter Punt Saturday morning, he led with this...

 

Michigan is going to win this football game.

 

I have been cautiously optimistic all season, as the wins kept piling up.  I saw that this team was indeed different.  But seeing the level of hope that BryMac put into to his Punt article, I couldn't help but believe.  And it came home.

 

So a hearty Thank you BryMac, and please bring out a special edition of Opponent Watch for B1G Championship week!!!!

I will second that - "Opponent Watch" is a great feature, as is "Punt /Counterpunt". He was also the mod that I essentially took over for in 2013, and he helped lay the foundation for quite a bit of how things work in that regard too. His contributions, both in print (virtually) and behind the scenes, are enormous as well.

Love Opponent Watch, probably my favorite regular series to read on the site right now. Particularly this year when Brian's recaps have been a bit on the gloomy side. No shade here, I know Brian is going through a lot and frankly after the last 20 years I couldn't bring myself to make truly optimistic predictions either. But I did have a tiny seed of hope somewhere in there and Bryan's prediction of a Michigan win in the last Opponent Watch of the year helped it bloom. Although I still wasn't completely convinced until Michigan was taking a knee to run the clock out...
