Match will be a tough one for sure. A victory of Minnesota would make this a successful weekend either way though. The match of the weekend seems like Marion and Russell. The clash in styles alone is interesting, let alone the track record of these two animals.
17 points wont beat Michigan state, got basically blanked against osu and a rough bowl game performance too. They were better, no disagreement there. I just thought there was too much inconsistency.
The problem was mostly defense, but the offense was terribly inconsistent against decent competition outside of the Illinois game. way too predictable against top tier talent. Qb power left, qb power right wont work against good defenses. You'll shred bowling greens, indianas and umass and end up top ten offense, and you'll flounder against the teams that matter.
Is alright in my book. It just didn't work out. Unfortunately, that happens sometimes. Now, colin cowherd on the other hand, is a professional shitbag.
And company took no time at all to salvage the class. There was a ton of negativity as people felt we settled for hoke, but now with mattison on board they have crushed the recruiting board. I hate to say surprised because I was optimistic, but relieved is more the word. Go blue and go hoke and company!
They should be ashamed after starting montrell Marion against penn state. Three strikes against him, he's 'permanently' kicked off the team and then they let him back on the team and start him first match. I am dumbfounded by this. Brands would sell his soul for a win. Damn I hate Iowa wrestling like I hate osu football. I will get off my soap box now, anyone have a ladder?
Great shout out. I just watched this on big ten network and was very impressed. Russel is an animal also. Has defeated the 2,3, and 4 ranked wrestlers at 141. Go blue!
Just got my first smart phone two weeks ago and can't stop reading recruiting updates. My wife has threatened to take my phone away. I have turned my wife into my mother...suck on that criss angel.
What's scary is how much better he will get. Look at last year vs. This year (granted we didn't see a ton of denard in 2009). Less touches, less injuries coming year and even more effective touches. He will be even more dangerous when defenses don't know the two plays in our playbook (qb power left, qb power right).
Me some v. Smith. Plays hard and has devoted alot of hours to u of m. You'd hate to see anyone go who invested the amount of time these guys have. Especially as they seem to be turning a corner after tough times.
I have been wondering this myself. they have a boatload of young talent but just seem like there lack of experience is killing them. Losing a couple of heartbreakers looks like it broke them also.
I just got on mgoblog to follow the coaching change and am happy to say I am now going to remove myself. Everyone is too negative. Give hoke a chance for god's sake. I would have no interest coaching for uofm because I wouldn't want everyone constantly calling for my head.

Of what would happen if the practice host upset Watson.
We gotta destroy this thing before it takes over the planet. I feel like I am watching I robot

Colin cowherd is a flaming shitbag on my door step. I got serious beef with that kind...

Will be a very tough matchup. I will be cautious with that one but I like the Minnesota match up.
Glad to have him. Sounds like a quality athlete!
Best pic ever....

A ton of young talent. I look forward to continue watching these guys. Go blue!

Was impressive tonight. Didn't realize he is up a few weight classes this year. He looks like he has filled in pretty well into 149:

I enjoyed the pics quite a bit. Go blue. Crushin' recruiting for one more week!
These bball pics are great but I have a mental photo of the izzo pouts face burned into my head....and I love it.
Not a huge output last year but he wasn't completely up to par, and honestly, the rb touches were too scarce for anyone to find a groove last year.

My wife and I had decided on a name until I saw this. Someday I will tell my son bonecrusher how he got his name. Ha
Thanks. the helmets look classy now. Don't want to look like osu helmets for sure.
I could ever root for jay cutler. Go pack.
I see a packers steelers super bowl. Rodgers is getting more dangerous every week too. Scary.
I would like to see more positive plays by the Eb's. Minimize denard injuries by limiting the designed runs.
