Yeah Wisconsin. Pile it on.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:21 PM ^
I would love for UM's offense to run like this...punishing O-line, power running, setting up the play action. When you run a "manball" offense to the effectiveness of Wisconsin, it's a beautiful thing.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:28 PM ^
There was time not long ago that I was yearning for a modern offense that zipped around every D it faced. Now I want a massive O-line and powerful backs. I think this means I could care less what it looks like as long as it works.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:22 PM ^
That's how you do a play-action.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:22 PM ^
If that firetruck's in a parade, who's gonna put out all the couch fires in EL?
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:24 PM ^
Wisconsin gets it back! Way to go, MSU!
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
This is going to be fun to watch. Hahaha
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
Looks like the only people getting hit in the mouth is the Sparty D. As much as I love the spread and shred, I would love to see us punk Sparty like that again.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
can't remember the last time that happened.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
I guess MSU forgot about 60 minutes of unnecessary roughness. Not looking so tough now.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
uhhhhhh can you really tell that he was the first to recover it
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:26 PM ^
I have a feeling I'm going to really enjoy watching this Wisconsin/MSU game.
Does it matter if the Wisconsin player was pushed out of bounds?
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:27 PM ^
How did Southern Cal almost lose to Minnesota?
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:27 PM ^
Whoop that ass, Bucky.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:27 PM ^
I would take anything that USC or Wiscy does right now...either one would do for me. Devin and Shane those two teams offenses are you future. Please enjoy having e to 4 secs to get rid of the ball and being able to see over the Oline.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:27 PM ^
Anyone else feeling really glad we don't have Wisconsin on the schedule this year?
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:29 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:30 PM ^
I pretty sure that's what you meant.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:28 PM ^
RUN UP THE SCORE! RUN UP THE SCORE! RUN UP THE SCORE!
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:28 PM ^
Yikes. I smell couch fires already
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:28 PM ^
MSU a top defense? hahahahahhahahah down 14-0
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:28 PM ^
It's like MSU isn't even there....
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:29 PM ^
Same Old Sparty
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:29 PM ^
could MSU not have played Wisconsin before they played us?
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:29 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:29 PM ^
ND making USC look like the USC teams of old. Wiscy making MSU look like the MSU teams of old. Best I could have hoped for in a bye week
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:29 PM ^
The only problem with WIsconsin crushing MSU is it makes it more likely we'd have to play the Badgers.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:31 PM ^
That's a problem any Michigan fan would be happy to deal with since that would mean we've won our division
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:31 PM ^
Except there was no way this team was going to not make the championship game. They're so much better than the rest of the big ten it's sad.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:32 PM ^
thats a GOOD thing !
Go Blue!
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:32 PM ^
That's a good thing. Even if we lose, we get an extra game, more experience, and we play against the best which will only make us better.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:30 PM ^
We still have a couple of years to go to get to this blueprint of how to win (offensively) in the Big Ten:
Huge OL, Physical pounding RBs and a QB that can throw accurately.
We just do not have the horses right now for this.
Sparty's time is coming. LOL at their ineptitude right now.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:30 PM ^
Sadly if we had any ability to change a snap count, we actually were decent against the Dline when we knew who to block.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:30 PM ^
Lol MSU
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:31 PM ^
are these helmets different than normal ones the use color wise? something just doesnt look right wether glare or color this time?
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:34 PM ^
to match the gold in the dome.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:32 PM ^
Right now it's on track to be about 112-0. I approve.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:33 PM ^
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:33 PM ^
I cant wait to get Kalis, Magnuson and co. to Ann Arbor. What I would give to have an Oline llike Wisky
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:37 PM ^
And yet they have accomplished this without big recruitng names; just the old school pizza and weight machines for 4 years. It's gonna be interesting to see what happens now that they are actually getting some big names commiting to them.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:43 PM ^
Edit: :(
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:35 PM ^
Over/Under on when the first couch will light up outside the stadium?
I'm saying during half-time
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:36 PM ^
Does Cromartie for the badgers have any relation to Domonique Rodgers-Cromartie and Antonio Cromartie?
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:56 PM ^
sparty gets the safety and nd takes the kickoff to the house within 2 seconds of each other why lord???
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:36 PM ^
NW and PSU having a pointfest in Evanston: 27-24 PSU at half.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:36 PM ^
In another hour, ESPN is going to start showing lots of sad girl faces in East Lansing.
October 22nd, 2011 at 8:37 PM ^
Michigan hockey, Wings, World Series, MSU-Wisconsin, ND-USC, OU-TT, Bama-Tennessee, Stanford-Washington. I don't know what to do with myself.
