Spring Game Rewatch Thread

Submitted by Chuck Norris on

Replay of the game is currently on BTN in it's entirety, as well as on BTN2Go. Immediately after is a replay of the M-Florida game.

 

Midway through the first drive now.

I'm sure most people see O'Korn as the heir apparent to Ruddock, but at least it looks like Speight is going to make him work for the job.

All of the QBS seemed to perform fairly well, albeit against a pretty vanilla version of our D. Was forced to listen to the UM audio stream of the game. Dan Dierdorf observed that none of the QBs who played made terrible mistakes, but he particularly gushed about Brandon Peters already looking like "the future of UM football." I'm sure Dylan McCaffrey will have something to say about that.

I missed Smith out there the first time. Looks like he's on the field but not getting touches.

Also I've been trying to focus on the LB's and McCray and Gedeon seem to be playing well together, blown trick play notwithstanding.

Good coverage by Keith Washington early on. I forgot about him.

BTW, Jon Jansen was pretty bad as the color guy. I don't know what happened to Marcus Ray, but he was much better.

I don't think it dropped that much at halftime.  In the fourth quarter, maybe.  

Personally, I was stuck in traffic and didn't make it for the kickoff.  As I made it in (midway through the first quarter), there were hundreds of others coming in with me.  In hindsight maybe they should have pushed the kickoff to 7:00.

I was there and I would say at least 50k. Pic doesn't do it justice but lower bowl was about entirely full. Way more than all the naysayers like WD were crying about since the day and time was announced. I'm a fan of the Friday night game. Hope it sticks or at least the night portion that is. Was a great night of fun at the Big House.

Not as packed densely but packed enough that I would say 50k. No matter what the number was the stadium was filled nicely and looked full enough. A nice crowd for recruits to see. Also the intro of recruits at halftime was fun and the roar and ovation for Rashan Gary was great. Had to be a positive for the recruits in attendance.

We were directly across from each other.

I was the guy in the Maize and Blue.

I eat the crow here. Crowd was amazing. 35,000 is a bullshit lowball estimate. 

Near 50,000. That thing was filled to top rung of the East and West side sections.
