Go BLUE. BEAT OSU.

Hold em and take the lead. We can throw on these guys all day. Harbaughs formations have them confused.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:38 PM ^
That is a really bad development. DJ Durkin's coaching ability is very much being challenged today. The one thing they could not allow they have allowed.
I don't know how Michigan can win this game with the defense being the seive that it has shown itself to be at this point.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:39 PM ^
Mr negative. They're down 4.

Good lord you are a negative nancy. Down 4 at home and you post like we're getting blown out. B
November 28th, 2015 at 1:45 PM ^
OSU will break off a few more chunk plays due to UM being incapable of keeping up with the tempo. Michigan is holding on with their fingernails at this point. Unless Michigan finds a way to slow OSU's tempo attack Michigan is going to lose by 10 plus.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:47 PM ^
Michigan too. It goes both ways.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:41 PM ^
Dude, we are down four and marched down the field to get a TD. Stop with the negativity, please.

Elliot is one of the best RBs I. The country. M will be fine. We are moving the ball well on O

Yep, it's DD's fault the d line has been killed with injuries and the LBs are average at best. We should be happy if he takes the MD job.

Considering how that half went I guess I will be content with only being down 4. Although, we should have had a TD on the field goal drive. We need to set the tone in in the 2nd half by forcing a punt on OSU's opening drive.

I hate to say it, but the call for the punt block looms large right now. Who know what the game would be had they taken the field position.

It's true. It was a gamble and it went against us. Special Teams plays are always huge in The Game.

That was huge. Could determine the game. Really not good for us at all
November 28th, 2015 at 1:41 PM ^
Nope. I think you take the 3 and out and be content with that. You put their D right back on the field

Big time. I hate that call. Almost never results in a block. At best that's a 5:1 penalty to block ratio. That's a play you reserve for desperation and definitely not at that part of the field when you'll get good field position anyway.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:43 PM ^
Agreed. It should be a desperation call. With the punt, M could hold field position.

A critical coaching error that changed the nature of the game

Hate the call. If it hits home, it's probably a safety. So you get 2 points and the ball on your own side of the field (most likely). You let them punt, and they either kick away from Pep and give us the ball on their side of the field, or they kick to Pep and he fields it around midfield. I'd rather have the return or short punt over 2pts.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:55 PM ^
The surreal part for me is my sister asking me if Michigan would come hard after the punter right before the play. I said there was no way since we were guarunteed good field position and giving Peppers some extra blockers was more important.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:38 PM ^
If we can make them throw the ball, we will be in a better shape.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:39 PM ^
Harbs and staff... we're counting on you to make the right adjustments. We can't afford to let the D get gassed.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:40 PM ^
Michigan has 14 first downs, 8 of 11 on 3rd down, out gaining and winning time of possession. We CAN win this game.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:42 PM ^
We will. Half time adjustments will happen. Smith is starting gain yards on the ground also.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:47 PM ^
I'm with you man. Sometimes I wonder how many other posters on this blog have ever actually seen a football game before. ;)
another stat: OSU is 3 of 6 passing for 18 yards. Everyone made such a stink about their 4 attempts last week. Truth is, I don't think they can throw the ball at all. We just need to stop their run.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:48 PM ^
Smith's big gain was a pass.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:42 PM ^
win the game. Stop the pathetic fanbase whining about the officiating. Win the battles on the line of scrimmage, steel in your spines, be tougher.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:44 PM ^
That's the truth. That seems to be the only thing OSU has going against our D is the zone read. If we can make some adjustments and find away to at least slow that down, we have a good chance.

Agree on the officiating. It has been fine. I don't understand how people want a flag on every play. They are letting the teams play and have been fine. Complaining about calls (at least in this game so far) is pathetic.

our passing game can move the ball consistently against them. And those first down read option plays are KILLING us. If Durkin can figure out a way to fix that and get them in third and more than five situations, I like our chances in the second half.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:43 PM ^
I think we're gonna have to create a hashtag movement #8inthebox

Rudock keeping us in it. He needs some help from Durkin's boys.

3 players on Ohio are the 4 point difference right now..... just 3 players
November 28th, 2015 at 1:52 PM ^
The problem is that urban figured out how to make it 3 on 3 with the OSU qb and rb vs the M linebackers. We keep losing that battle due to bolden
November 28th, 2015 at 1:46 PM ^
It is what it is with LBs. Loading up the box is the only option and let our CBs make some big plays.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:46 PM ^
during these games. Down by 11 points in the 2nd FRICKEN quarter and nearly all of the posts on here were saying this game is over, etc.
You can tell who the guys are on here that played competitive sports.
Thankfully our coach and players aren't bunch of negative quitters with weak atttiudes.
PATHETIC!!!
GO BLUE!!!
November 28th, 2015 at 1:48 PM ^
Those who quit deserve Brady Hoke.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:56 PM ^
Don't be a dumbass. If you don't like other posters, don't come on here. I'm sure you have way more important things to do as an important Vegas sports better

Unlike previous years we will make adjustments. This should be a close one. No Hoke or Rich Rod team would have scored that last touchdown. They would have gone three and out and it would be 14-3. Harbaugh.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:48 PM ^
Unclear if we have the personnel to make adjustments to stop their run game. Injuries to the line combined with poor lb talent man you can only do so much

Agree. We whiffed on LBs big time. We needed that epic DL. Injury to Glasgow is really hurting us.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:54 PM ^
Without him the run defense has really suffered. OSU is exposing that which is what good teams do.
November 28th, 2015 at 1:51 PM ^
During will figure it out.
