Well it is a road game in a hostile environment and we aren't the best in those situations. I wouldn't say i considered it unwinnable but it won't be easy.
EDIT: it's just a road game, saying ND is hostile gives their fans too much credit.
Have you watched Florida this year? He kinda has a point. Although they can blame their offensive woes mainly on injuries where we can't really do that.
I shouldn't have said prehistoric offense, I should have said prehistoric playcalling. Obviously you can recruit talented players while running a pro-style offense but if Borges isn't going to get even a little creative with playcalling within his pro style system then I can see that hurting recruitng.
Yes, he has to go. Beyond his playcalling, you have to worry that he may start affecting recruiting because top offensive recruits won't want to come play in this prehistoric offense.
Obviously this hasn't been a problem so far but at some point it may start having an effect. One thing I've noticed in reading what recruits say about Michigan is that all the defensive guys praise Mattison for his schemes, I just don't see that a whole lot with Al Borges.
He is known as a QB guru (he's coached two guys, Cade McNown and Jason Campbell who were first round picks), so I could see one solution being to move him to a QB coach type roll with no playcalling duties and hiring a new OC.
I used to read a bunch of Clay Travis' stuff before he started becoming more sexist, misogynistic and just a general douchebag, and he's probably going to have Kentucky basketball fans and Bama football fans as 1-2 on this list. So I think we're good.
Going with the Dennis Norfleet one where he taunts? I think? the CMU player after a fair catch. Not 100% sure what is going on in the GIF but I find it hilarious.

oh my god, their reasoning for michigan making the playoff is so stupid I can't help but laugh
only the raiders could lose a game while simultaneously winning one
The Big Lebowski sucks? You're just trying to see how far you can go before Brian bans you, aren't you?
YES! I've been waiting for these, thanks man.
I would read the shit out of a UFR of Tim Biakabutuka's 313 yard game.
It was nice of Michigan to end the game when they did so that we could all still catch the end of that Auburn-UGA game.
Oh my god don't joke about that, it's probably true.
Florida and UCLA are pretty sweet but WHY ARE WE SCHEDULING AIR FORCE AGAIN

Virginia Tech is basically the Michigan State of the ACC, stifling defense and just enough offense to win games.

I thought that was "Roll Tide"?
This would be a good "Florida or Ohio", I'd have a hard time guessing without seeing the headline.
Sounds like you just came up with a new shirt design for the MGoStore.

34-31 Michigan, and Notre Dame misses two field goals
Agree on Pat Fitzgerald, can't quite put my finger on why I like seeing him fail but I just do.

Actually had an all B1G final four, that didn't really work out though.

I love that I'll get to see more Leafs-Wings games, something about those games always makes them fun to watch.
