I've gone back and rewatched the full version of the '21 game, and I gotta admit, the second half is a bit of a slog. Of course, this is mostly because we were kicking their butts so badly on offense and scoring so quickly that we barely had the ball in the second half. But this means that a whole lot of time is spent watching the defense not quite being able to kick OSU off the field when one more stop would have ended the game. Still great, but the 60 minute version is probably an improvement. 

But the '22 game? All of our quick scoring is interrupted by Stroud floundering around the whole second half and tons of OSU schadenfreude. Inject it all into my veins.

24-20 Michigan after 3.  Defense is looking good - we held them scoreless in the third.  Offense is driving for another score.  Fox announcers think the 4th quarter could be epic.  I just hope we win by a point or more.

Mike Sainristil's PBO still amaizes me.  Given the situation in The Game, one of the all-time greatest defensive plays in Michigan Football history.

I'm watching it and my wife is giving me her disgusted look just like she did last month when I was gloating.  So many things broke right for us in this game.

Back to the Weed Eater Bowl.  They say it is only 20 degrees there.  What I don't understand is why the Houston coach is wearing a brown sweatshirt that says "STATE" .  Tied at 16 with 8:32 left.
