Thanks for sharing!

This season was kinda weird for me as a fan. 2021 was so fun, so emotional, and taking off the maize and blue glasses...the games were much better. For me, it was the best season since '97.

2022 had expectations, which felt different. 2021 was like a suspenseful movie.  This team was better and thus it was far more vanilla...simply because they could win games without showing everything. Everything was geared towards OSU and the CFP.

I wish I would've taken more time to enjoy it. Instead, I still find myself going back to watch games from '21.

This was a great team that did an incredible job of staying focused throughout the season. The OSU game was a great reward.

2023 will be interesting. It will have even MORE expectations. But I while I think 2022 had a little bit of a hangover effect (for me, clearly not the team)...2023 already feels new for this team. Let's find a corner, develop a corner and go win a National Championship!

No doubt.  Such a great time to be a fan and as good as a two year stretch as I can remember, but it is hard not to think about what might have been.  Maybe Georgia comes out and just crushes it, but not having the chance to know will always be part of the season story.

But no complaints!  I started really following this program in the mid 80's and the last two years have been amazing.  Lots of expectations for next season as well.  If they can get into the playoff again next season and then the expansion playoffs show up in the season after.  No reason Michigan cannot be a playoff contender every year.

Go Blue!

While the rivalry wins & Big Ten championships were incredible, two games which showed the will power of the team was Rutgers & Illinois.  

These were two games which could have been losses - and Michigan dominated Rutgers with defense and used their ace kicker $$$$ Moody to seal a victory. 

Such a legendary team. 

Let's do it again this year. 

Go Blue.
