Here are my key gripes:
1)Time of possession (per ESPN):
Michigan 20:14
MSU 39:46
This is the telling stat in my eyes. I was having flash backs of last year with all the 3 and outs. The defense can only do so much before they too tired to even tackle. This was so evident on the TD winning run when a Michigan defender had Larry Caper wrapped up but just slid off. This, in my eyes, was a 'tired' tackle where you are just hanging on for dear life. Offense did step up to the plate, but it was a little too late by that time.
2) Fake Punt
WTF?! It's only inches for a 1st down. Ever heard of QB sneak? Is Zoltan one of the fastest guys on the team? My gosh, you don't have your punter run from 8yds deep! At least call a fake punt pass...
Okay - I'm done griping. It's not the end of the world. It appears that Michigan is on the right path but we need to be patient. Let's get ready for Iowa - Go Blue!!!
