Yesterday had to be off the grid watched the game yesterday on tape delay - took a visit to WMU for josh
But I am not worried about this team - I believe they will get it going in the Big ten - clean up some offense- I have yet to see screens and even their TE plays they ran for the past two years I wonder if they are saving it?
Defense is awesome - Air Force is tough
Special teams is good great kicker and people Jones can break a game open - get him more touches
Go Blue this 3-0 is better than rich rod 3-0 and home 3-0
It all goes to what Dantonio said. "It's not the coach, it's the program." It's even more. Personally, I've worked with and been in a position to work for, work with, hire and fire people from Michigan. In fact, my hiring count sits at 251 As a whole, there is an annoying mindset that permeates M alum like sweat through a T shirt that makes them unlikeable. All things being equal I will always hire a person that did not graduate from Michigan. Their classism and elitism creates a negative (almost hostile) work environment. That school needs to fix EVERYTHING. Unfortunatley, it is most evident to most people only when they play sports.

So agree with the stupid Michigan Man mantra. Hated it during Carr and hate it now. Rich Rod may have not been the Answer but to not be given a chance from get go is a travesty. All these elitist Michigan men are running the program in the ground
Before app st I said 8-4 or 9-3. But after that game this win against inferior opponent looked much different. This team has depth on defense. They can play bump and run and blitz. The offense looked calm and poised haven't seen that in 8 years. Also looks like we finally have playmakers at wide receivers
No qb controversy but it feels great to know michigan has a capable backup and also a veteran for 2013 to show Morris the ropes or better yet have Morris redshirt
dont worry Michigan will do fine at home. Tough road loss after a tough game against NW. As always when Michigan is missing its 3s it will be tough to win, especially with no inside presence.
I was at the game and it was the loudest I ever heard...even in the 4th after some of the doubters bailed and left for their cars.....i just wish I knew how to do a kickoff because I would go to Coach Rich Rod and tryout....
Awesome game to be at ...never heard it so loud...louder than the 3 games I went to in 97 championship season...I sit by the visitor side 10 yard line 70 rows up away from the students and band...and in years past you could barely hear the band but now its loud and proud...Keep rocking Bighouse!!
Awesome points...Ive been saying this all along from the start of most fans predictions they had them 6-6, 7-5 at best 8-4..with most likely a loss at ND and / or Uconn...but then they procede to go 5-0 and all hope is restored with a QB that is lightning in a bottle...now that the competition is Big 10 the players are faster and bigger than the pre schedule...most fans hope is lost and as usual the pitch forks get sharpened. Get ready for the Free Press to rear its ugly head with the allegations and accusations of a cheating coach and program.
Michigan fans hate to lose..hate to not play defense and hate to not be the best in the country. Understand but this team is far better than last years team then started the same...they are in ball games...they just make too many mistakes and you cant make mistakes with a bad defense.
If you watch that video they had Kovacs up at the line of scrimmage most of the time either blitzing in or dropping back? is that a blitz or a designed coverage?
I also thought they were in a 4 man front more than the 3 man front, and 8 man box alot.
so how can we call and complain about it being a 3-3-5?
Having Kovacs up there takes him out of safety , leaving more one on one? and also if they break a big run , which they did at least 4 times hes not there for last man in line.
to me they tried something different and it didnt work...bend dont break doesnt work but they at least dont give up the long runs and throws.
same thoughts hear....I looked at schedule and knew the MSU game would be tough..we had the Iowa game and blew it...hopefully (theres that hope word) we limit the mistakes and beat Iowa...
I like our chances against Penn St and Purdue...we have Illinois at home and we match up against Wisconsin it seems every year...OSU well its at the horseshoe
I told my wifey after the Stonum TD...that if the Wolverines get this game tied up I would go for Two...why not...nothing to lose..why tie it up with the All american Kicker at MSU and if we are so good to score getting the ball at the 25...why not score at the 3yard line with a spread formation and "Little Man" Tate may the Forcier be with us all!!
Come on guys and gals...at beginning of season looking at last year and the schedule if you "really" thought UM would of been 5-0 or 4-1 at best...I owe you 50 bucks...
they can fix alot of went on this week...they should of thrown more than they did..but early on when they did they got rushed and had to punt or fake punt..J/k...lol
the Wolverines win next week and they are back otherwise the young kids learn again and get ready for Delaware STate and Penn State...
GO BLUE!!
Dantanio is an idiot..for one he should of taken his 3 pts when it was 20-6 and he had a 47 yard fG try...then on 3rd and 4 he ran it with 3+ minutes to go giving a spread offense the ball.
I agree the fake punt option is IDIOTIC on the coaching staff to even have that in there anywheres below your 40 yard line...that wont EVER happen again.
Also they should of been trying to throw more earlier in the game. But if you really look at it I think they did try to throw but Tate either was rushed too many times or no completions.

Go Blue beat Penn St.
wondering what the stats are for how many times Rich Rod shakes his head at Greg Robinson in disgust over his defense?
Do you think Gardner and / or Forcier will transfer if this is the scenerio? Or does Gardner take the job?
In this day and age of college football not sure if a QB would sit for 3 years without playing
you did not just compare him to tebow...
I hate the 80 year old alum with his oxygen tank at the games yelling..."sit down..."
I havent been this excited over Michigan football in a long time and over watching a player as exciting as Drob...
