This is starting to remind me of the game last night. No one can cover worth a damn and it makes the offenses look amazing. Except since it's SEC it's good football!

5-10 years ago, all we heard was that the SEC had by far the best defenses in the nation.  No offense could score off those guys.  It's not that their QBs sucked.

Now, they all have the greatest offenses ever.  No D could ever expect to stop them.  24 pts already by A&M in the first half w/o johnny football.  I'm just shaking my head.

Well until non-SEC teams (read: the Big Ten) can beat the SEC consistently in OOC games they are going to keep getting hyped and we will continue to be nauseated. This is why I want all Big Ten teams to do well out of conference. The SEC is what makes me the most sick. They so shady practices and then get on top. Just terrible and I want the Big Ten to be premier again like it is in basketball.

what the hell is the guy supposed to do, he ran step for step with the WR and got pushed off on and yet the penalty is on him?

 

Rules of today really suck in many ways

Kenny Hill looks like an excellent QB - very poised as a sophomore to go into this arena and do well.  But the SEC dont play defense outside of Bama and LSU it seems.

The A&M game is error free except for PI.

Now 31-14.   Nearing halftime.

Old friend Thomas Rawls with 17yds on 3 carries for CMU in 1st Quarter.  Central is a good fit for Rawls because Dan Enos prefers to limit the offense to the middle 1/3 of the field.

I am sure I am in the minority here but I don't really care what the rest of the conference does. If Michigan could win every game while every other BIG team loses every game I would be happy. Some might think this is stupid but I just want my team to win don't care about the conference's status.

but if your conference is terrible then winning every game doesn't mean a whole lot.  Ask Boise State.  If you want national relevance, you have to play in a good conference.  Of course, with the addition of Maryland and Rutgers, the B1G didn't exactly help its case.

Listen I hope it doesn't come to it but if Michigan is looking for a new coach in the near future I'll take A&M's Sumlin any day. Also he looks like Rick Mahorn.
