Sports Pickle helps Brandon with marketing

That's insane. Depending on how Taylor does upon his return from injury (and how quickly that happens), Peppers is looking to be a starter opposite Lewis from here on out. Missing a couple of games due to injury (which may stem from that cheap shot he took in week 1) is hardly a reason to peg a guy whose been eligible for all of a month as a bust.

Preaching to the choir I realize, but still. That's nuts.

Whoa, seriously?  Have those people even watched UM play?  Or Peppers play?  What the hell did they expect anyway?  UM returned literally everyone in the secondary that wasn't bad and Peppers already has a start under his belt and is the starting nickel, and has aquited himself quite well so far.  Hell, Patrick Petersen didn't even start until the last four games of his freshman year.  That's just the typical lazy 'journalism' where if the team isn't doing well, then everyone on the team must be bad.

Its certainly more than just a game to time people involved. Players and coaches put everything they have into their sport. Win or lose try telling a player "It's just a game. Their lives literally revolve around sports and for many it starts at an early age. From a fan perspective many take wins and losses way to seriously but on the other hand if everyone viewed it as just a game Thousands of people would become thousands of empty seats.
