The reason we can put out so much audio content now is it’s paid for. The show is presented by UGP & Moe's and their latest venture, the Bo Store, and frankly would not be happening without them; Rishi and Ryan and their people have been huge MGoBlog supporters from the start.

Our other sponsors are also key in the expanding empire: thanks to Homesure Lending, Ann Arbor Elder Law, the Residence Inn Ann Arbor Downtown, the University of Michigan Alumni Association, Deo Bookkeeping, Michigan Law Grad, Defensive Drivers Group, and Peak Wealth Management.

--------------------------

Offense

starts at 1:00

You can see why early season Speight won the job over O’Korn, who did his Madden first timer impression long after it stopped being funny. How Michigan solved Indiana’s slice and dice linebackers, and shout-out to the receivers for blocking a 1950s game.

Defense

starts at 17:00

Indiana stretched and Michigan kept that down with a steady diet of Glasgow penetration and Taco going bonkers. Indiana did Mitch Leidner us a bit, if you can even call that a catch.

Special Teams & Game Theory

starts at 28:20

Oh man this punter. Dantonio goes for a mental message 2-point conversion with Tyler O’Connor. 1950s ball is acceptable when you’re in the 1950 Game.

Hoops

starts at 39:32

Ace’s Thera-Flu hallucination is apparently being shared by the rest of us who think D.J. Wilson should be the top of a 1-3-1. Michigan’s big(!) team is fouling(!) like an average(!) team and has a solid defense(!). So far this season is its best case scenario.

Talking Big Ten w/ Interrupting Jamie Mac

starts at 1:01:15

It may be worth it to keep the Northern Hemisphere in perpetual precipitationary darkness for the duration of J.T. Barrett’s career. How often did Ohio State use its 8-ypc running back tandem? Did anyone else get Mitch Leidner’d this week? Is Rutgers in the Big Ten some kind of sick joke? I’m not saying this is in the podcast, I’m asking as I write this, like is Delaney gonna turn around and be like “Dude, no, I meant we should get that defensive lineman who’s committed to Oregon ha ha you actually thought…oh no. NoNoNoNoNoNo.”
