We messed up by changing the offense.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:39 PM ^
Probably, but Pep still needed to go.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:41 PM ^
Jim Harbaugh is the fucking problem. I thought this was fairly evident by now.
Charles is about to destroy the program on halftime.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:41 PM ^
CANCEL THIS TEAM. BOYCOTT HOME GAMES. LET THE LOSERS PLAY IN A EMPTY STADIUM. SHOW THEM WHAT PIECES OF CRAP THEY REALLY ARE
September 21st, 2019 at 1:43 PM ^
We? Wheres my cut of that 7.5 million
September 21st, 2019 at 1:43 PM ^
The Game last year was doubly infuriating because for once I couldn't complain about the offensive coaching. Team totally flipped the script and the loss was completely on St Browns shoulders. Well, partly on brown, partly on recruiting and depth.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:44 PM ^
This program has no identity. Wisconsin has an identity. Michigan doesn't.
After this 6-6, 5-7 season, Gattis is going to be gone.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:45 PM ^
I like that Harbaugh made a big time move to get better. We were very good but not elite, and made an aggressive coaching change to improve. So far it’s been a failure, but I can’t say I didn’t like the move.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:51 PM ^
Yeah, the old body-blow offense was not exactly working against good teams. Something needed to be done.
But with the way this OL is playing, it does not matter what offense you are in. And Shea is so shaky, any hiccup in the OL makes him crumble.
There is no quick fix to this . . .

Gotta disagree with you. It beat Northwestern and blew out Penn State and Wisconsin. If you remember, we started out the Notre Dame game trying to air it out and were getting blown out. We switched to the ground and pound and almost won the game. In the OSU game, the other team scored 62 points, you can't exactly blame that on the offense.
September 21st, 2019 at 2:24 PM ^
The O-line play this year has been the most confusing thing to me... Warinner knows how to coach a line in this offense yet it’s not translating.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:54 PM ^
I didn’t like the Gattis hire and genuinely don’t like a team that can never go under center in critical situations. I like a pro style mixing in the spread and we had success with this in the past. This team runs the spread like shit and we have no running game which is disgraceful for a Michigan team.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:46 PM ^
We messed up by thinking Harbaugh was going to be our savior. Basically put 1000% of our eggs in his basket, and now that his mediocrity has been exposed, we’ve capped our ceiling at 10 wins and 2nd place in our division.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:51 PM ^
That's basically been the ceiling since the turn of the century, it's an issue with the entire program not just harbaugh. The program is not and has not been elite for ages now. I don't see anyone outside of a fantasy hire who could turn the program into something resembling alabama, Clemson or osu it's just not in the cards and never really has been.
September 21st, 2019 at 2:21 PM ^
Lloyd Carr’s teams were regularly winning Big Ten titles. Harbaugh hasn’t ever matched that and never will.
September 21st, 2019 at 3:01 PM ^
Carr was so much better than Harbaugh. I mean, it’s not even close.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:52 PM ^
We thought he was our Nick Saban, our Urban Meyer, our Dabo Swinney. He's not.
That's where Michigan is now. They way they're playing, it's not out of the question that they don't make a bowl game. We'll see what happens with Harbaugh's job status after that.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:48 PM ^
I say Michigan runs an air raid next year. At least the identity would be undeniable.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:49 PM ^
Really I don’t think that’s it. The complete lack of execution, how bout a fumble on the 7 yard line. Why does it look like an eternity has passed before our running back gets the ball. Anyone watch the usc game last night. Why the fuck don’t we just throw it up to nico. Dropped balls, stupid penalties and fumbles this is a disgrace.
September 21st, 2019 at 2:11 PM ^
The O-line has to block long enough to throw it up to Nico.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:49 PM ^
The offense needed to be changed. It wasn’t going to win the B1G or make the playoffs, let alone beat the Clemsons and Alabamas of the world.
They erred in hiring a guy who sucks at his job. Not to mention hiring Gattis. I don’t know what the fuck happened to Patterson during the offseason, but he’s worse than O’Korn.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:49 PM ^
This is where I'm at also. It just looks inferior. WRs rarely actually open, etc. One of my main problems with a tempo offense that tries to go lightning fast is that you lose the ability to own the clock. It all comes down to whether or not you can outscore your opponent. Ball control offenses end up dictating opponent play calls and themselves become an advantage for their defense in doing so, and that is my preferred mode of offense.
I'm fine with Harbaugh, and Michigan lost a ton of talent on D so my expectations were for them to regress more than a bit, but Gattis and this offense are turning into a liability... even before the turnovers are considered.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:51 PM ^
Did the offense give up 28 points? Guess what dipshit, all of our coaches suck and the players are nothing but soft cowards who like to talk.
September 21st, 2019 at 1:57 PM ^
The worst part is Wisconsin is an updated Michigan.
September 21st, 2019 at 2:04 PM ^
For the love of all things holy, throw the fucking ball down field to our WR!!!!!!
September 21st, 2019 at 2:23 PM ^
Right move.
Wrong Bama coordinator
September 21st, 2019 at 2:31 PM ^
It's cute that you think the offense is different.
