I've always thought Dantonio

I've always thought Dantonio to be very childish but I am very impressed with him for this game.  MSU was able to control emotions very well and avoid costly penalties for the most part.  This post game presser is just icing on the cake.  I hope that Hoke and Dantonio will be able to compete for many years with this level of sportmanship from both teams.

I really do wish him the best

I really do wish him the best and hope he is completely cleared (and completely healthy) to play as soon as possible.  That sure was a tough hit and I am glad they took all the precautions by taking him to the hospital.  I hope he is 100% by Nov 24.  I want to have a good battle down in Colombus!

I think we could agree that

I think we could agree that Roushar is a much much below average playcaller.  Point taken that things could be worse, but that doesn't mean things can't be better either.  All this being said, very happy that we came away with the win and very much looking forward to next week against NEB.

Highly likely I am over-reacting but...

 Another awful game of playcalls.  This was a good MSU defense for sure, but they were beatable and time and time again Borges failed to put our players in positions to take advantage.  Now I'm not saying our players were flawless, but so many inexcusably bad offensive plays completely exposed by MSU's defense.  How do we not use Funchess/Rawls more?  Why do we not adjust once we realize MSU has an answer to our read option play?  I think it was rather clear we had options at the corners but Borges insisted on going down the middle!  And then the 2 pass plays inside MSU's 4 yard line!  Once again Borges overthinking the play call.  I know if either of those passes were complete, I would be praising Borges for daring to pass.  But I think we can now see a pattern of Borges being to cute with his play calling.  He overthinks!  Am I over reacting?  I think we win this game by 2 scores easily with an average playcaller.    This was not a great defense that we faced but merely a good defense and there is no reason why we do not score more than 20 with the most dangerous qb in Michigan history.

It is likely the beer and my love for Denard is skewing my perception.  If so, what am I missing?  All this said, love Hoke, this team, and the outlook for this season and beyond.  GO BLUE!!

Strongbow, walking the

Strongbow, walking the streets, giving high fives.  It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!!

Can not wait!

It's going to be a long day waiting for this one to start.  Going to start the morning with the 2004 game.  Lets Go Blue!!!

I can't help but feel more

I can't help but feel more confident about the Notre Dame game after how MSU is playing here.
