Michigan Monday is up
Five Michigan touchdowns accounted for 349 of the Wolverines’ 530 yards of total offense. That’s nearly two-thirds of their total yardage. On the Wolverines’ other 55 plays, they managed just 3.3 yards per play.
Day no doubt after the game is saying “If you just take those five plays away…” That may give him some hope and confidence that things aren’t necessarily as desperate as they seem, but just taking five plays away is a lot like saying if you just take the gun out of John Wilkes Booth’s hand, the Lincoln Family wouldn’t have left such a poor review of Ford’s Theater on Yelp.

I love it when a plan comes together...
November 28th, 2022 at 1:30 PM ^
This should be good.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:31 PM ^
Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln...
November 28th, 2022 at 1:32 PM ^
Yummy.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:34 PM ^
Well, yeah, putting extra bodies at the line of scrimmage worked most of the time…

"You never hear about the planes that didn't crash..."
November 28th, 2022 at 2:30 PM ^
They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.
November 28th, 2022 at 5:08 PM ^
Exactly. I'm already tired of hearing how few yards UM gained in the first half other than the big plays. Like they would have been stopping the run without loading the box.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:39 PM ^
The Wolverines never cracked. Never blinked. Just kept staring straight ahead, like the killing machine Jim Harbaugh always wanted.
Right into my fucking veins!!!
November 28th, 2022 at 2:43 PM ^
No offense, HP - but, "Blyat, Putler".
November 29th, 2022 at 4:48 PM ^
Sláva Ukrayíni!
November 28th, 2022 at 1:38 PM ^
Go USC. Go TCU. Don't even let them sniff a chance at redemption until they hit Ann Arbor next year.
November 28th, 2022 at 9:29 PM ^
Right there with ya.. I hate the fact that we even have to consider this possibility.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:39 PM ^
FYI when you say *Hannibal voice* the A Team is not the first Hannibal people think of. I started reading that in a very different voice at first
November 28th, 2022 at 1:51 PM ^
The A Team is how I read it, but I'm not very bright. As a 13 y/o in 1983, the A-Team might as well have been The Wire or Mad Men.
November 28th, 2022 at 2:14 PM ^
Well, the Wolverines did eat the Buckeyes’ livers with some fava beans and a nice chianti
November 28th, 2022 at 3:25 PM ^
Ugh, Chianti. Hannibal wouldn’t drink such swill. The author of book said it was a “big Amarone.” No one knows what Amarone is, so the screenwriters changed it for the movie. /end of tangent rant
November 28th, 2022 at 2:56 PM ^
I read it as Hannibal Burress, which was just as good if not a better way to experience it.
November 28th, 2022 at 7:50 PM ^
Columbus est deletum.
November 28th, 2022 at 8:26 PM ^
I read it as Hannibal, the Carthagenian general that was such a thorn in the side of the Roman Empire during the 2nd Punic War.
November 28th, 2022 at 9:19 PM ^
I was immediately taken back to the Punic Wars.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:40 PM ^
I guess OSU figured out why Iowa and PSU kept those safeties back deep all game even though the run game gashed them.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:40 PM ^
good job everyone, we crashed their site!
November 28th, 2022 at 1:40 PM ^
This is what I've really been waiting for
November 28th, 2022 at 1:41 PM ^
Knowles has said that his defensive scheme “bakes in” five big plays from the opponent, but you can’t bake in five 70-yard touchdowns. You don’t have enough oven.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:42 PM ^
Lol the site crashed from all the Michigan fans trying to read it.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:42 PM ^
LOL, Don Brown believed the same things.
Here's the deal, when it worked it was awesome. When it didn't work under Don Brown it was a loss and an avg of 180yds given up on the ground and close to 300 in the air with several long td passes given up and couldn't stop the run and usually one long run broke open if not a couple. Huh...
2 safeties back would have been death by slow torture. And before they say anything, look up the 3rd qtr with Edwards running the ball yds each carry, 0, 4, 2, 12. 9. 6, 1, 3, 0, -1, 0, 3, -1, 75, 6, 1, 85, 2
The oline was controlling the los and they had to sell out to stop the run. Not selling out would have turned several of the plays into 3-6yd gains if not more. So, like a 0 coverage 8 in the box defense normally does, it gets stops at or near the los. But then it also gets gashed and shoe string tackles to prevent massive gains or td's and then you get 75 and 85 because......
November 28th, 2022 at 6:01 PM ^
Further proof that Michigan was just wholly the better team.
November 28th, 2022 at 10:39 PM ^
The DB analogy was spot on! Their strategy works wonders against over-matched teams, but against equal talent, well, we lived through that shit.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:43 PM ^
A balanced offense means you cannot sell-out to stop anything. It forces you to play a balanced defense. All season long teams didn't want to get it in the face, so they dropped safeties deep in a willing effort to absorb body blows. But not OSU! Noooooo... Their soft-asses didn't want to take repeated punches to the mid-section. They wanted it in the face.
And that's where they got it.
OSU's plan next year will be more balanced... LMAO!!!
November 28th, 2022 at 1:43 PM ^
Best error message ever:
November 28th, 2022 at 1:49 PM ^
Just like Saturday, it is yet another host issue.

Buckeye host error, you say?
November 28th, 2022 at 1:57 PM ^
Day was pissed at that kid. He should portal him over to MSU where he will fit right in.
November 28th, 2022 at 2:12 PM ^
I noticed on rewatch that earlier in the game there was a scuffle on the OSU sideline and douchbag #88 was in the middle of that scrum jawing. The headbutt was just the next logical step to someone who was already out of control.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:44 PM ^
Michigan Monday broke the internet today.... Gold
November 28th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
Now I need a cigarette.
November 28th, 2022 at 2:10 PM ^
*still chain smoking since Saturday.... this cannot be good *
November 28th, 2022 at 1:45 PM ^
Looks like we crashed their site. LoL
November 28th, 2022 at 2:01 PM ^
The problem appears to be in the "buckeyehuddle"
November 28th, 2022 at 1:47 PM ^
If they use that logic, what quantity of plays are allowed to be taken away from their own team? Just terrible logic/analysis from a fan base in shock. I love it
November 28th, 2022 at 1:50 PM ^
Different year...different set of excuses. Day is clearly lobbying for CFP attention.
November 28th, 2022 at 1:50 PM ^
We crashed their site
November 28th, 2022 at 1:51 PM ^
Michigan fans crashing a Buckeye website to read their "leaders" recap of an ass whooping is the Chef's kiss to this weekend. Because you know it's not the Buckeyes wanting to read this. LMAO
November 28th, 2022 at 1:55 PM ^
Too bad the site is now down
