Shoutout to another #82, Norm Betts, who was a TE.

He helped our team beat ND in 1985:

He later went on to chair the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, the true definition of Leaders and Best.

Go Blue and let's hope those guys in Maize and Blue who will be on the field in 82 days will destroy the blue and gold for Dr. Betts and all of the rest of the past Michigan Legends we are honoring on this countdown!

Even now, that grab by Darboh....wow.

The only thing that gives me pause this far out is my fear that August speculation threads will occasionally get a bit testy this time around.

That 31-0 win over #21 ranked BYU was huge. It was after that game we were no longer a .500 door mat program that we had been for 7 years (save for fluky 2011). We weren't national contenders or anything after that game. But we were finally a respectable program once again.
