30 weeks 5 days ago Expectations

“It’s an in-state rival. But we have bigger expectations.”

Love it.

33 weeks 2 days ago self awareness

In the last podcast Brian said that in contrast to Mattison, Borges never has and never will admit fault when a game goes poorly. I was pleased to see Brian proved ever-so-slightly wrong in this press conference.

36 weeks 11 hours ago I'm ashamed to admit that I

I'm ashamed to admit that I know this, but there was an episode years ago where in the locker room you could clearly see a sign that said "Those who stay will be champions." There's definitely a Michigan fan or two on the crew.

1 year 22 weeks ago Ugh

Bagging on Sparty when we haven't beat them in 4 years is weak.

Contrived bagging on Sparty, like this, is even worse.

Hoke Uber Ales

Perhaps. But what about porters or stouts?

1 year 29 weeks ago After 15 years in southeast

After 15 years in southeast MI (including 4 in Ann Arbor, woo!) I've spent the last 6 years living in Champaign.  I make the trip back to the Detroit suburbs a couple times a year.  The 94-80-57 route is much faster unless you'll hit Chicago at rush hour. Then they're about equal. There's exactly one toll stop, which will set you back a whopping $0.80, I think.  Go that way. Really.

 

1 year 30 weeks ago If the student section

If the student section doesn't do a chant involving the name Tom when they come to town next year, I'm going to be super disappointed.

1 year 32 weeks ago podcast this week?

You've spoiled us with regularly scheduled podcasts this season. Now I can't go a week without a fix!

1 year 33 weeks ago

I couldn't agree more. We FINALLY made a bad B1G team look bad, as opposed to narrowly winning on the game's last drive. Or, you know, losing.

If I meet a genie and he gives me three wishes, I'm totally using one to get mgoblog off Drupal.

I couldn't help but remember this post

http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/all-not-lost-osu-ad-running-scared#comment-608470

in which Not A Blue Fan lectured us on the virtues of having a Real AD as opposed to a pizza salesmen.  It's safe to conclude at this point that the pizza salesman handled the NCAA better, right?

1 year 48 weeks ago Loved that game. Thought it

Loved that game. Thought it was pretty selfless of Hart to risk his non-fumbler rep, deliberately coughing it up a couple times to keep it close and exciting. Always looking out for the fans, that kid. ;)

1 year 49 weeks ago Somebody from Manhasset. F**k

Somebody from Manhasset. F**k Garden City!

(I kid. I didn't actually downvote it.)

2 years 8 weeks ago It's a little cheesy and

It's a little cheesy and stupid.

But it's less cheesy and stupid than, say, a stuffed animal being rubbed on your face after a big defensive play.

2 years 15 weeks ago Let's hold off on any

...a substantially superior class to the Sparty...

Let's hold off on any gloating until that translates to on-field success though, okay?

2 years 20 weeks ago No suprise, really.  I mean,

No suprise, really.  I mean, the poor guy didn't even get his week to look like an All-American against our defense.

2 years 20 weeks ago I guess on the plus side,

I guess on the plus side, despite our fantastic flameout, we'd go out as the winningest program of all time.

2 years 24 weeks ago I don't know about that.  I

I don't know about that.  I live in Champaign.  I don't know anybody who would say they "like" him.

There does seem to be a consensus that he's the best recruiting Illinois has had, possibly ever, but that he's a terrible game coach.  Hence the new coordinators this year, and the improvement.

2 years 24 weeks ago My bad

I didn't particularly care about the thread itself. I just wanted to point out the strangeness of a moderator deleting a thread that Brian saw fit to front-page.

But I now see it was actually deleted because it was a repeat. So never mind. :)

2 years 24 weeks ago Attention Right Hand

The left hand has apparently deleted the Brady Ugg Boots post.

There is apparently some disagreement about what constitutes a quality board post.

2 years 25 weeks ago Wasn't Desmond beating the

Wasn't Desmond beating the bare cupboard drum pretty hard in 2008? I really don't remember him being clearly outside the RR camp from the beginning.

2 years 28 weeks ago simmer

You're looking for complexity and rationality where none is intended.

It's just saying he's a douche.

2 years 28 weeks ago I had a terrible fake taken

I had a terrible fake taken away there while trying to impress two girls from Markley.  I paid $60 for it, and it never worked.  What an idiot I was.  Anyway, I was horrified and never went back to see if I'd made the wall of shame.

And the girls were not impressed.

2 years 28 weeks ago Indeed.  Let's not forget we

Indeed.  Let's not forget we were -4 in turnover margin.  The fact that we never went down by more than a score, despite that, means the defense played way beyond expectations.  Those two RB wheel routes were painful, but beyond those, at least there was a defender in position most of the time.  Unlike last week.
