I don't know of any direct influence but I know that Wolverine underwent a number of costume changes since his origin... maybe he picked up the maize and blue colors from our boys...

My guess is that:

1. They wanted to get Devin a little game-time experience in that formation and

2. They wanted to show just enough to bait future opponents for the REAL trick plays :-)

1 year 33 weeks ago It's definitely the first

It's definitely the first time a Michigan player has down that in a single game, but in his Michigan career, Steve Breaston scored as a runner, receiver, passer, kick returner, and punt returner... too bad they never let him kick or play defense!

It might also be due to the fact that he never played last season... so he neither hobbled on, nor off the field during a game.

1 year 34 weeks ago EDIT!

You hit it on the head... my source images mostly come from google images as I don't subscribe to any of the pay-for-image sites... I'll do my best to find higher res images going forward... that's the upside to monuMental creating a lot of his own stuff from scratch- he can create the output resolution as well!

1 year 34 weeks ago The ones I displayed in the

The ones I displayed in the post are resized smaller, but the links I posted are 1920x1440 for 4:3 and 1920x1200 for widescreen- I took my cues from monuMental. The link to my photobucket album has the full resolution images. Hope that helps :-).

Since monuMental is doing backgrounds for the rivalry games, I didn't do Notre Dame, but I did backgrounds for W Michigan, E Michigan, and San Diego St... I posted them all up on my old photobucket account...

I'll continue to post non-rivalry game wallpapers on Mondays, but don't have 100 points yet, so I'll have to hijack [ guilty :-( ] to do so... you can just go to the above link on Mondays, though, until I get enough points.

1 year 35 weeks ago Thanks! I've been reading

Thanks! I've been reading posts for a couple of years, but have just recently begun posting wallpapers since monuMental was taking a break... I'll get to 100 eventually :-) Until then, I'll make wallpapers for the non-rivalry games (monuMental said he was doing those) and mysteriously post links to them on someone else's post with an apology to the OP.

1 year 35 weeks ago EMU Wallpaper

Working hard on getting 100 points... until then, I'll post these where I can. Here's a wallpaper for the SDSU game:

1 year 35 weeks ago I can't imagine ND going to

I can't imagine ND going to the ACC. Most of their rivalries are with the Pac-12 and B1G... I do wonder if the B1G should be interested in TCU if the Big East implodes... it gives us that Texas  recruiting tie-in and they're ranked 97th academically (higher than Nebraska)... 

1 year 35 weeks ago I think we actually do get

I think we actually do get the ranking, but agree that we haven't earned it yet. Our win over ND will eventually look good, but we have a long way to go if we're going to play with Illinois and Nebraska (not to mention Sparty and Northwestern). A steady progression on both sides of the ball and we could end up making things look interesting in the Legends Division... I don't relish the thought of playing Wisconsin this year, though...

1 year 35 weeks ago Your Flickr account is now

Your Flickr account is now saved in my favorites. Great shots- we should all pitch in and get you season tickets!

1 year 35 weeks ago I'm surprised to hear that

I'm surprised to hear that Nebraska's worried about us. Granted, they had a slow start today against Washington, but nobody slow-plays the 1st half on offense AND defense like we do! Here's hoping their fear is warranted :-).

1 year 35 weeks ago Amen! Right now the B1G is

Amen! Right now the B1G is Wisconsin, Nebraska, and everyone else... at least in appearance. As much as I loath losing to them, I was rooting for the Buckeyes and Sparty today... if our conference looks bad, anything we accomplish within it is tarnished as well...

I watched from home but noticed more than a few times that the PLAYERS are actually watching the hd screens for replays. Coaches were also pointing to them and talking to each other and/or players. Here's hoping it creates some "teaching moments" for Mattison and the defense :-).

I tried to continue monuMental's style of wallpapers, although I bow down to his talent. If people like them, I'll continue to make a weekly wallpaper until monuMental is back in business :-).

Based on the information given, here are the throwbacks we'll see at the game:

2 years 17 weeks ago um... math?

since we're already off topic talking about another team's DC... I thought I'd point out that 10 years of $300k are definitely not better than 4 years of $800k... when is $3 million ever really better than $3.2 million?!?
