Michigan Physical Defense Causes Central Michigan Sad/Bad "Breaks"

Dont think you got your point across, try adding "breaks" a couple times more

Yes,best of luck on the quick recovery of these young men.

But how are these breaks going to affect jersey sales in Ohio?

its not bad "breaks", its football.

The one that Tipton was injured on was a goal-line play, and he was stopped short of the goal line.  I actually thought it was his shoulder, because it was hit pretty hard, but I seemed like he just twisted his ankle, and then someone fell on it.  As for the collarbone, it was a regular play where the quarterback scrambled and hit the ground and was hit.  He's a duel threat QB, and that stuff happens. 

I do not think Michigan was specifically targeting these players.  Not because "I think its impossible for Michigan to do anything bad, ever", but because that it did not look like that at all.  I'd give it a 0% chance of Michigan intentionally injuring these players.  The nature of the injuries didn't sugest it, and also, why would we do that against a team like Central Michigan? I think how the injuries happened is all you need to know here. 

As for Central, I hope Tipton and Kater get better, as it seems like they have a good team, and Tipton has some great potential.  I wish them luck in the MAC, and I shake my head at you, sir, for this post.

you always have the weirdest posts

for them, slaughtered and left short handed. Originally I wanted to destroy them because Enos was an ex MSU player but I didn't want them to have casualties at all.

That's a tough break. 

I'll see myself out...

You gotta feel bad for the players and the one to blame for this are the ADs.   Instead of games between evenly matched teams, big schools want the home ticket sales so they pay out to the smaller schools who are desperate for the payday.  Then you put teams with smaller/weaker lines against teams who are bigger, stronger and faster and you get kids hurt.  The way Hoke and co are building Michigan now, MAC teams are going to be outclassed in all aspects of the game and you will have injuries.  2 major injuries like this is probably higher than you'd get on average, but it's still beating up on weaker opponents and risking their entire season just to get a payday.

I think most people already knew these things when they happened during the game.

Might be a blessing in disguise for Tipton. Less carries in college usually means more carries later on that you can get paid for. Obviously that requires you are drafted, but CMU is good for a couple of NFL players every few years and this kid made it on a Doak Walker watch list from a MAC school. Surgery, rehab and then maybe share carries next season with whoever breaks out in his absence. With a freshman QB, they might have worn him out this season.

The Wolverines certainly understand how these injuries can impact the fortunes of the team.

Nobody wants to see these dedicated, talented student-athletes get injured.

Best of luck to them and their team.

Yes, it is kind of sad as these two were needed to be competitive in the MAC. Wishing them a speedy recovery.

Sucks to see guys get injured, hope they fully recover, and quickly. 

Chippewa hating God

Last year we got whipped by Alabama and lost Countess in the process.  It just sucks, there are no two ways about it.  I feel bad for CMU.

 

Journalistic critiques are easier to take seriously if they aren't littered with unnecessary scare quotes. That said, this really sucks for CMU. Poor Chips.
