Oregon State vs. Stanford Thread
September 25th, 2015 at 11:49 PM ^
Maybe the USC game was a fluke and Stanford still treats the USC game the way Harbaugh did when Carroll was there. Similar to Hoke and OSU, looks like a completely different team against their rivals.
September 25th, 2015 at 11:53 PM ^
Or maybe USC isn't that good
September 25th, 2015 at 11:52 PM ^
NTOSU might be looking better but so are we, maybe we got something way better than most people believe.
If we just get respectable QB'ing from JR, we're gonna be a load to deal with, everytime Stanford gets a compliment it puts a smile on my face knowing we're going to be even better than that when you consider the history of U-M football, the future looks damn good.
September 25th, 2015 at 11:55 PM ^
September 25th, 2015 at 11:58 PM ^
and Or. St. is better than people gave them credit for and maybe we're better than people thought, it is possible.
Tomorrow will be telling but I feel good about that game with BYU.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:02 AM ^
here, have a TD
September 26th, 2015 at 12:07 AM ^

So....was that definitely a missed field goal? It might have been nice to see the crossbar camera on that one
September 26th, 2015 at 12:07 AM ^
so I thought Stanford would have no problem with Oregon Regular later in the year. PAC12 makes no sense whatsoever
September 26th, 2015 at 12:08 AM ^
That's actually a good point made by the crew - if you know you're going to take a loss on a reception, it's better to feign butterfingers. It drives me batty actually when receivers catch passes in such situations.
Meanwhile, there is a Virginia fan in Charlottesville who is hanging over a wall...again, except after this game, there is probably some vomiting involved.

My first thought after getting home, turning this game on, and seeing the score -- "There has to be a post about this shit on goblog"
September 26th, 2015 at 12:33 AM ^
September 26th, 2015 at 12:10 AM ^
So according to transitive property of sports, we are better than Stanford?
September 26th, 2015 at 12:17 AM ^
If we don't talk about it... shh.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:22 AM ^
Northwestern proved they are better than Stanford, and I'm not convinced Northwestern is a very good football team.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:16 AM ^
So, from this game I've concluded:
-Stanford is not very good, ergo
-Northwestern is slightly less not good
-USC is really not good
And that Michigan would handle each of the teams listed. At least, we will get to test one of them out this year.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:12 AM ^
September 26th, 2015 at 12:19 AM ^
Yeah. One more TD for OSU and the rest is gravy; that first drive they put up on us doesn't look so outrageous anymore.
What's nice about this is that I wasn't sure that OSU wasn't headed for a 1-11 season after they played us; they really looked outmanned, and for all we know they could have been (still could be) completely awful all year long. Nothing is set in stone, but this game suggests that OSU has some real promise.
At least, on offense they do. Stanford is plowing them under up front, which one would expect given how our OL put them to the sword.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:14 AM ^
Man they love to play some inconsistent football. I've got no idea what to think about either of these teams now.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:15 AM ^
Did Fox just call Maryland and West Virginia "bitter rivals"? Since when?
September 26th, 2015 at 12:18 AM ^
Since 1919. It started with some border dispute shit I believe.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:23 AM ^
They've played nearly every year since 1969 with only a handful being as conference rivals.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:20 AM ^
September 26th, 2015 at 12:20 AM ^
Yeah he can actually run and hit deep balls sigh...
September 26th, 2015 at 12:25 AM ^
September 26th, 2015 at 12:20 AM ^
Absurd throw... horrible defense.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:20 AM ^
+1 for ntmfosu
September 26th, 2015 at 12:20 AM ^
September 26th, 2015 at 12:21 AM ^
Junior Hemingway still playing against VT, I guess
September 26th, 2015 at 12:22 AM ^
DBs channelling freshman Stribling there.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:27 AM ^
They were good for one half, now in self-destruct mode.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:34 AM ^
This Stanford offense is a beauty to watch when it's rolling.
Future Michigan offense?
September 26th, 2015 at 12:34 AM ^
Well, stanford seems to have taken the michigan approach to beating oregon state handily.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:36 AM ^
They do have Barry Sanders running for them, so they should be expected to run the ball well.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:35 AM ^
Well then.
No real surprise here. We blasted them the same way. Stanford is not a comatose team; I'd expect them to win easily here, and they are.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:35 AM ^
September 26th, 2015 at 12:41 AM ^
Yeah... I thought the same thing... Their D looked gasssed on the previous stanford drive. They needed to go for it there. I remember watching them gas out in similar fashion in Ann Arbor.
September 26th, 2015 at 12:39 AM ^
has got it in gear now
September 26th, 2015 at 12:41 AM ^
September 26th, 2015 at 12:46 AM ^
September 26th, 2015 at 12:46 AM ^
I don't know if this point has been brought up previously, maybe Harbaugh didn't want to stick a knife in Shaw by pursuing Hogan too vigorously. Maybe it was an integrity thing for JH.
Hogan would have our offense humming because it wouldn't have been that big of a transition with both offenses being so similar.
September 26th, 2015 at 6:17 AM ^
What I mean is that if Hogan could help Michigan win, and Hogan had interest in coming, why wouldn't Harbaugh try to bring him?
