What UM really needs
After watching a lot of football I have noticed a trend that the team that scores the most points usually wins the game
Applying this to Michigan was a real eye opener- we need to score more points than the other team
So, how to do this? It came to me: playmakers (and good plays). Looking at the stats that is the only difference between us and the elite teams. Football is about getting into the end zone and a fast player is going to get there faster than a slow player- so we need speed.
Also, we need good plays. A coach who calls good plays is usually going to beat a coach that calls bad plays. We need to recruit smarter coaches.
ND sucks

Probably the best analysis i ever had the pleasure of reading.

Think your Ford Escort needs new shock absorbers.

Does Ross availability now limit McGrone playing time?
October 26th, 2019 at 6:37 PM ^
McGrone has been a stud. They better play him as he's one of their best 11

Only if we execute, give 110%, and win the line of scrimmage.

Don't forget about hearing football, having a great week of practice and feeding the kids something good to eat.
October 26th, 2019 at 6:27 PM ^
wrong, it's all about outhitting your opponent
October 26th, 2019 at 6:31 PM ^
Nice one Scott Frost!
October 26th, 2019 at 10:54 PM ^
And hearing the hits.....that's equally important.
October 26th, 2019 at 6:29 PM ^
What MGoBlog really needs... is for you to never post again.
Beat ND
October 26th, 2019 at 6:30 PM ^
10/10
To win you must score more points than your opponent.

You sir are Albert F’in Einstein.

We appreciate your long trek up the mountain to consult with the monks.
October 26th, 2019 at 6:34 PM ^
Everyone drinking early today I see.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:07 PM ^
Interestingly, these night games have forced me sober. If I drink for a night game it is drunk-bed at 1 AM and hyper 4 year old at 6 AM. Fuck all that.

Throw the ball to Ronnie Bell!!
October 26th, 2019 at 7:06 PM ^
While I, and I'm sure the rest of the board, appreciate your enthusiastic call to throw the ball to Ronnie Bell, I feel that your level of passion for this pales in comparison to the poster that dedicated an entire, poorly titled thread to his demand to throw every single pass to Ronnie Bell. Until you're ready to commit to throw it to him on every single down, your appeal is going to seem half-assed and fail to garner sufficient support to make a difference.

The better team on paper will win at least 50% of the time. The only exception is when the other team score more points
October 26th, 2019 at 6:40 PM ^
We need Rowing lesson cause PJ Fleck is putting on a coaching show this year
October 26th, 2019 at 6:40 PM ^
Also, and stay with me on this, whomever KEEPS the other team from scoring the most points usually wins. This is deep man.
October 26th, 2019 at 6:44 PM ^
Could you start over and slow down a little bit?
October 26th, 2019 at 6:42 PM ^
What they need is to not be down 2-3 TD's before the half.
October 26th, 2019 at 6:43 PM ^
You have left me wanting more. Do you have a newsletter to which I can subscribe?
October 26th, 2019 at 6:45 PM ^
Better recruiting.The end. You can’t compete for championships in the BIG with Mac level players.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:07 PM ^
You know Maizen?
October 26th, 2019 at 7:24 PM ^
The Capri Sun and orange wedge mafia here isnt going to allow the desparaging recuiting talk. What's important is they try real real hard. In fact... Last week... They didnt even quit!!
October 26th, 2019 at 6:48 PM ^
How drunk is OP?
October 26th, 2019 at 6:49 PM ^
Jake you forgot:
Win or lose Go Blue. I'll hang up and listen. Win or lose Go Blue.
October 26th, 2019 at 6:51 PM ^
It’s all about pad level.
October 26th, 2019 at 6:52 PM ^
Uhhhhh.....the team with more points ALWAYS wins the game. That's not a trend but an absolute.
October 26th, 2019 at 11:32 PM ^
Where is your (mathematical) proof? Show me your work or I won't believe it.
October 26th, 2019 at 6:57 PM ^
What UM really needs...
More Minty.

We need to get back to rolling out NFL quality OL that can dominate lesser opponents and hold their own against the big boys.
That's one thing I thought Harbaugh would change once he took over. It looked like they started to figure it out last year but this year has been a step backwards. Maybe we have the personnel to that with some of the young guys but it doesn't seem like we're ever going to win the LOS.
Our current group of WR are some of the best that I've seen at Michigan but what does it matter if the QB is running for their lives?
October 26th, 2019 at 7:03 PM ^
I am looking for a reference to this brilliant strategy in Sun Tzu's Art of War but alas it's not there.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:08 PM ^
Yes. This. If we score more points than ND I like our chances in this one.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:12 PM ^
Riveting
October 26th, 2019 at 7:14 PM ^
More points than ND scores ? Yup
October 26th, 2019 at 7:15 PM ^
Hot chili ?
October 26th, 2019 at 7:15 PM ^
Give this guy a break man, he really put himself out there. A lot of beer went into that.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:15 PM ^
MODS!
October 26th, 2019 at 7:30 PM ^
Honestly, this is what's been missing the entire Harbaugh era.
We've never had a guy who can house it on any given play. Just having that kind of threat opens up so much room for your offense.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:31 PM ^
+1 Insightful.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:37 PM ^
I’m with this guy. Please dumb it down a bit for me.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:38 PM ^
Little known fact: water is wet.
October 26th, 2019 at 7:39 PM ^
tough crowd
October 26th, 2019 at 8:07 PM ^
Maybe not try to be funny anymore?
October 26th, 2019 at 8:11 PM ^
Nomination for worst thread EVER
