3 days 12 hours ago	Nah!	Why would BGSU want to forfeit the game? NIU already beat Ball St this year 48-27. It will be nice seeing NIU against some good MAC East competition since the teams they played in the East this year weren't that strong. I think it will be a tight game just like the last 3 MAC championships that NIU was in. I'll be there tomorrow for NIU. Can't wait! Those games are always a lot of fun. I hope Jordan Lynch has another great performance and gets his invite to New York.
1 week 2 days ago	Same here!	Go Huskies!!!
1 week 5 days ago	Beast!	He's a beast. I've enjoyed watching him all year. I'm trying to thaw out now from just watching tonight's game at NIU
2 weeks 4 days ago	Another Trip to Detroit!	Another trip to Detroit for NIU! Very impressive second half for NIU and Jordan Lynch! What a beast he is especially after his two top WR targets were out. I know where I'll be December 6th :) Go Huskies!!!
6 weeks 6 days ago	QB's	Seems like they decided to have all QB's in this vote.
7 weeks 1 day ago	Absolutely ridiculous!	I seriously can't believe the turnout in the student section. Embarrassing! No excuse with a 3:30pm game
9 weeks 1 day ago	Very sad!	With being in IL I've been hearing about his seizures for quite some time now with him coaching at SIU and NIU. I'm interested to know what effects stress has on his epilepsy and whether or not retiring would help. Health definitely comes first and it seems that through the years there hasn't been really any signs of improvement. Coach Kill is a great guy and I hope he's able to get this better under control. Best wishes in his recovery from today and going forward!
9 weeks 4 days ago	Rivals	It had been mentioned on Rivals that Kentucky said to Booker that they had room for both Blackmon Jr and Booker. Hope that's not the case. Guess we'll find out very soon
9 weeks 4 days ago	Agreed!	I was at that thrashing on Saturday against NIU and Purdue was god awful. I'm guessing that besides NIU, Bowling Green, Ohio, Toledo, Kent St and maybe even Western Michigan could beat them. MAC is a very good conference again this year
9 weeks 5 days ago	Banner Raising in Chicago!	Go Hawks!!!!
9 weeks 6 days ago	Haha awesome!	Absolutely hilarious!  Would love to hear the story behind this one as well.  I hope it comes out.
10 weeks 9 hours ago	Wow awesome!	Way to go Alvarez!
10 weeks 4 days ago	Purdue/NIU	She's an NIU graduate so we're headed to the Purdue/NIU game in West Lafayette. Works perfectly. She gets to see her alma mater play and I still get to go see a football game on the bye week in most likely a half empty stadium. Should be a good day.
11 weeks 3 days ago	Yes it is!	Good job sir!
11 weeks 5 days ago	Tough one this year	This is a tough one this year for me. I agree by ND beating State it will help our victory look better against them after their tough weekend last week and by ND beating them we can laugh at State for losing. However being from Illinois all you ever hear about whether its the media or their fans is ND. You never hear about State because people in IL don't care about them except for Michigan fans who care about the rivalry and I guess those ND fans that care about it. I know way too many ND fans that I can't stand so I've always hated them the most. Normally I would say I would cheer for State because of my hatred for ND but given that we're already past that game with ND and it would be funny to cripple or at least laugh at the State fanbase, I think this year I will have to go for ND. State thinks their defense is so strong and will carry them all year so I would love to see ND drop 40 on them and blow them out. It's always good to put little brother in place whether you're the one doing it or someone else is. How I see it is I would rather have a team who we've already beaten win vs a team we haven't played yet and could gain confidence by winning.
11 weeks 5 days ago	Wow!	Seriously man? C'mon!
13 weeks 11 hours ago	Sure did!	They mentioned last week during the Georgia/Clemson game that he played QB in the Peach Bowl and threw for over 400 yards in the game. Then played WR in his last two years amd put up some pretty good numbers.
13 weeks 1 day ago	Can't wait to hear the visit	Can't wait to hear the visit reactions from the recruits. There's no way you couldn't be impressed with the play on the field, meeting with the coaches and taking in the overall atmosphere of the stadium. Tonight was huge for recruiting.
13 weeks 1 day ago	As some have mentioned the	As some have mentioned the Michigan fans are on east side of the stadium right behind the bench till quite a few sections in the south end zone.  Michigan fans end up pretty well dominating the stadium when we play there.  Parking sucks as there are some lots you can tailgate in and some you cannot.  Some of the other lots are quite far from the stadium but they do have buses that will pick you up from those lots to take you to the stadium.  Not bad getting to the stadium then but after the game its a mad rush to get on one of those buses to get back to the lots. Then the buses stop at quite a few stops so hope that you are one of the first lots they stop at.
15 weeks 5 days ago	UNC bound?	I had thought UNC was quite high on his list as well as close. It will be interesting to see where he ends up now. I remember he originally was talking about trying to stay relatively close to home.
18 weeks 3 days ago	Sweet!	Looks good!
19 weeks 9 hours ago	#52	Mason Cole I believe
19 weeks 10 hours ago	Kalis	Kalis was also a 5 star to Rivals besides Pipkins
19 weeks 2 days ago	Confusing!	This is all very confusing. I really hope he's still able to make it to the BBQ.
19 weeks 5 days ago	Team Tix!	They had this option last year which I had done. It's a great way of assuring yourself tickets at face value and if Michigan doesn't make it you're not out that much money. I like this better than say purchasing the tickets and then having to unload them if Michigan didn't make it. Sometimes depending on where you sit at the Big Ten Championship the tickets can go well below face value so you could really lose money that way if you tried unloading them. That was the case the last two years. Plenty of cheap tickets and open sections available that were sold on Stubhub.
20 weeks 1 day ago	Maize	Maize is pretty funny because we put a 2 ft or so gate in front of our second bedroom door where his toys, crate and blankets are. When we leave he has the run of that room and based on his jumping ability he could easily clear that gate with no problem. He has no idea though that he can clear it which I guess for us is good.
20 weeks 1 day ago	Braylon Edwards!	I would have to say Braylon Edwards for my boxer Maize. It's like he has springs in his legs so when we throw him anything to catch he really can jump up and get it. He's a very athletic dog and can really get off the ground. Actually in the smaller size of a boxer, 60 lbs, so he's pretty fit. He's reminded me of Braylon Edwards from the 2004 MSU game when we went up and had those jump ball TD's in the endzone.
20 weeks 4 days ago	Me too!	I'm the same way. I've always purchased NCAA football over Madden. This sucks!
20 weeks 4 days ago	Wow!	That really sucks. At least we were able to get another Michigan player on the cover before all this happened. I wasn't too upset when the NCAA March Madness game went away but having this game go away will really really suck. Guess my wife will be happy that she doesn't have to see me playing video games as much.
21 weeks 2 days ago	Awesome news!	Can't wait to have him on campus and hear what he thinks of AA. Definitely awesome news.
