Only one UM “presumptive positive” confirmed positive after PCR testing

Fucking Harbaugh! He can't even get contagion right!

I want to play Maryland and then have the OSU game called off.  Maybe I am a homer but I think we can beat Maryland but I would be shocked if we held OSU under 70. 

I can’t help but picture Bluto running from the frat house... it’s not over until we say it’s over, who’s with me?...no one follows.   That’s what this season feels like.  

Nope, we have to play and get this over with, and you have to watch. 

It's just self-care.

People are tired of being invested in something that isn't fun and is at times painful.

And football is bringing down the atmosphere that hockey and basketball have created.

I think the point is that the team has already quit, so the fans are too. 

Well, Plan A would be to have the team look interested in playing/winning games, but that went out the window a while back.

We're all fans of Michigan, we're all fans of football, we're all rooting for the team. But the coaches aren't putting players in any kind of position for success, injuries/covid/opt-outs have decimated the already-mismanaged roster, and you can smell the apathy surrounding the program.

It certainly looks like the team has quit on the coaches. It certainly looks like the coaches have quit on the team. Fans have increasingly quit on the coaches. At a certain point, you just want to put everyone out of their misery.

You want more of this?

This hamburger is moldy and raw

better keep eating it. 
 

because I love hamburgers so much

It's not so much about quitting as it is about the team playing with half an effort. Players like Hasson Haskins, McNamara and Ronnie Bell, among several others are still giving it 110% out there. Kudos to them but it's not a real and whole team effort.

I just don't want to see more embarrassment by this team. It's awful. 

I agree with your sentiment.

For better or worse, the University of Michigan decided to go forward with a 2020 football season.  When you commit to go forward with something, you finish it out unless there is a valid reason to quit (and 1 positive PCR case is not that), even if you don't necessarily want to.

That's a good rule for life in general, not just 2020 college football.

I understand people not wanting to watch. That's an easy fix. Don't watch. 

I don't get that they wanted the season to end due to a crapload of our players being positive for COVID. That's just being narcissistic. 

Based on the schedule, suggest you change to "Some are in the 21 day protocol and will miss a game". Not that it will matter one way or the other :( 

Ryan Day will not be on the sidelines Saturday if they end up playing. If they play, they will be the 1st B1G team to only miss 1 game due to their teams Covid positive testing

@chengelis and @SamWebb77 saying that they scheduled practice but then canceled and did it virtually. Just more caution or expecting more positives?

I like that they are playing the games. Yes, I am watching them apathetically, but I have loved college football since I was a kid. I feel like the quit watching it crowd is just taking my ball and going home crap. Sure, be less invested and enjoy your kids and family, but I still love the tradition of watching the game on fall Saturdays 

I want to neg you and tell you to fuck off.  But gotdamn if that doesn't fit the Michigan narrative over the years...

Put Mazi Smith at QB for that game. It's not like it matters.

Yep, if the decision hasn't been made better to have the fence sitters involved in decision making get more data.

I wonder / hope our players are getting something positive out of this season.
