Michigan Monday
Didin't see this posted this week, so here it is.
No pandering false praise of Michigan this week. Michigan does not match up well to Ohio State and he says so.

no negative vibes, man!

It can't get much worse than the two OSU Fee Fi Foe Films.
Might as well get it out of the way.

Control the controllables, find success in the process, focus on your attitude and effort, let the results be what they may be, take your lumps as any inexperienced person learning something new would, learn from your mistakes, be consistent with your approach, and apply it to the next game. That's all you can do. As JH says we'll put steel in our spines and come back stronger.

You forgot to "give 110%" and "leave it all on the field".
Cuz at the end of the day...
November 23rd, 2017 at 8:19 PM ^
And then still lose

Nobody on this roster knows what it is like to beat the Buckeyes, and that kind of frustration can drive a program more than playoff hopes can.
You know, part of says "Yeah, maybe" to this and hopes we derive motivation from this, but this Ohio State week is one I've approached with more trepidation than the last few. It's just a feeling, of course, and inherently irrational, but still....

Pick-sixes and scoop-n-scores would be nice and probably needed.
November 23rd, 2017 at 4:03 PM ^
Our inner Iowa.

We matched up great against Wisconsin, and look how that went. Matching up poorly with Ohio State guarantees a win, in my opinion.

It went fine against UW until Peters got hurt.
Maybe it'll go fine against OSU, and we hope that nobody gets hurt?

since posted here, read it.
Yeah M-Dog that about sums it up. Gloves came off. Pretty much what you would expect from what he has written leading up to this week.
November 23rd, 2017 at 9:56 PM ^
He’s always fair and writes a very unbiased review.
Going to take a miracle to win on Saturday.

He's usually pretty good, but this was a bad article. Besides pointing out how much we are missing WR experience. And that's notably not Harbaugh's fault at all.
----------
The fact that he had only led them to 17 points in the previous five quarters, however, makes me think that it wasn’t going to happen.
Peters’ last four drives totaled just 26 yards, which also happened to be the exact same length as O’Korn’s first drive, so let’s not pretend like the injury derailed the Wolverines’ chances.
---------------
Yeah, that's some serious cherry-picking. Don't mention the 1st half against Maryland or some of the drives besides the last 4.
--------------
I went through and looked at the games where Michigan gave up some rushing yards this season, namely Air Force (168), Michigan State (158), Penn State (224), Maryland (180), and Wisconsin (182). Those five teams have one of two things (and sometimes both) — either a mobile quarterback (Air Force, Michigan State, Maryland) or a dynamic running back (Penn State, Maryland, Wisconsin).
-------------
Michigan's D gives up more yards when the other team has a running QB or good RB. Cool.

I don't think I would classify Weber as 'dynamic". This Michigan Monday seems to have a bit more a bias tilt to it, but understandable to a degree.

I'm a bigger Dobbins fan, but Weber has been very dynamic the last two games since he got healthy. Three TD runs over 40 yards, one going for 82.
