Go Blue!
I have a feeling this one will be a nail biter.
Self-plug, this is the video I made from my perspective that night:
I always love videos like this. A good crowd reaction shot is always a treat, even if it's the back of their heads.

Is that 240? It's fuzzier than my recollection of that game after 30 beers.
August 4th, 2012 at 11:55 PM ^
It is 240. There's definitely no 720p option there. And if there were, it would be way too hard to click the resolution settings button anyways.
It is blurry because my camera drank 31 beers and is manlier than you.
August 4th, 2012 at 11:57 PM ^
Perhaps returning those 31 cans can be the start if a new camera fund.

I'm not sure I can handle the stressfulness of the first three quarters this early on a Saturday.
August 4th, 2012 at 12:49 PM ^
I think I've watched this game 4 times over the past week or so.
August 4th, 2012 at 12:51 PM ^
I forgot what an epic disaster the 1st quarter was.
August 4th, 2012 at 12:51 PM ^
Let us know when the 4th quarter is about to start, then I'll turn it on.
OK, here you go, it's on now. 4th quarter starts at 1:47:55:
Next time it's on let's all get selective amnesia and do a twitter game thread for the UTL replay.
...and I was going to be productive this afternoon.
Put in Devin Gardner! This wouldn't be happening if we still had RR.
Spolier Alert:
We Win
I came back from the bar last night wanting to watch this on DVR. I find that my roomate, a fellow UM grad, has deleted it. Yes, ill be able to dvr it again when its on the big ten network, but i feel he should still be punished for this. What should i do?
Still have the full original which I dvr'd the night of, while I was at the game. Now that my kid can navigate the dvr, I always worry about this type of scenario.
I would put the roomate on double secret probation, to include cleaning, dishes, and paying for at minimum one long bender at the local pub!
Well there's obviously only one thing to do.... Fill up your pillow case with bars of soap, hit him across the face with it, and yell "THIS IS MY HOUSE, DON'T TOUCH MY DVR".
play "boomer sooner" over and over again. I can't find the article but either the U.S. or the Chinese used the fight song as an interrigation tool. Guessing it was China. I used to have an article about the story, but I can't find it anymore.
Only have about 30 minutes to come up with a realistic reason for tearing through a six pack and watching UTL once again, instead of cleaning garage, pulling weeds, etc...
I guess this is just a warm up for her as we get closer to the season!
just say your butt hurts and you can't do chores. it usually works for me. i told her I have a ligament problem in my rear-end, and sometimes it flairs up during physical labor. neither of us are scientifically -inclined, so she believes it. I always start whatever work she has for me, though, so it looms like im trying. also, make it random. work through games you don't really care about, so it doesn't seem like you always happen to be hurting during the game. also, wince and moan a lot when you're actually working. im pretty sure my wife does this to me as well, because sometimes instead of doing laundry or dishes or whatever her chores are, she says her nipples are sensitive and chafing bad, so she can't work. not sure if she's playing me, but she might be. she never questions my own fakery though, which leads me to believe she herself is NOT faking. commence "cool story bros."
honesty, the foundation of all strong relationships
so many times that I can't believe it hasn't even been a year yet.
Truely a Michigan classic for all time.
just made his debut. This game is epic on so many levels.
I love it when they show Facepalm guy. Everyone was at least thinking that during the live broadcast but now we can laugh about it.
/wags finger at camera
I was 6 rows of the field in that corner Vincent smith scored in... I thought that was it boy was I way off!
I always loved seeing on TV how the top parts of the stadium are pretty dark. Not sure why. Maybe it's because it makes the stadium look even bigger but I just think it looks awesome
What a beautiful view.. I really hope when I die that this is what heaven looks like and I can join my late uncle and have the best seat in the house!
Watching this again, it always amazes me how Notre Dame always manages to "Notre Dame" i.e. find some epic way to embarass themselves
"They left him alone!!!"
Wait for it...There it is, a purpler shade of purple.
SCHADENFREUDE. (Hey, maybe that should be a T-shirt?)
I'm not asshamed to admit I cried tears of joy
Ass ham.
This game was cathartic and a great release.
GO BLUE!
And pulling for you and blue! I hope you are well and wish you the best!
A lot of people bitch about always posting these on the board, but I love when people let us know. I was bored as shit watching the olympics (men's volleyball and water polo) trying to pass the time while my 3 kids were all down for naps. What a perfect way to spend an hour!
Cheers!
certainly wasn't, well, with the Irish.
Do you think more Irish people (being a citizen of Ireland) have gone to ND or Michigan? I'd give ND the favorite with about 60% but I think we have a great shot at having more Irish citizens. It wouldn't even be close on how many Irish Americans went there compared to Mich.
shows that ND claims about 130,000 living alumni, while Michigan claims over half a million. Based on numbers alone, I'd guess Michigan has it by a factor of four, give or take.
I missed it but did we win again?
Don Criqui (as Roundtree catches the game-winning TD): "Incomplete.....but wait...."
I have to believe that some of the diehards in South Bend are still waiting.

Video.

I'm really disappointed that I won't be able to attend this game again
Can someone help point me toward a certain clip?
I believe this was durring UTL, but I'm not 100% positive. There was a game last season where a sideline scuffle occured between our players and opposing players, and Hoke can be seen grabbing two of our players by the back of their jerseys and manhandling them back to the sidelines with a sort of pissed off "your antics are hurting the team" kind of scowl on his face. If someone could point me toward that clip, it would be much appreciated.
No, it definitely wasn't that. I was actually sitting on that side of the field and saw Hoke corrale Devin live, so I was familiar with that incident. I believe it was two defensive players, and in retropect, I'm pretty sure it was daylight, so it either wasn't UTL, or it was very early in the game.
