5 ints right
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:12 PM ^
But yes... I think so. It should be 10-10 or something close to that
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:16 PM ^
5 with Vincent Smith. Corrected thanks.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:11 PM ^
to say Denard just threw another INT
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:15 PM ^
You're correct. The band took a pretty big hit when the ND guy caught that pass out of bounds. I hope they can recover and make any costly mistakes at half time
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:15 PM ^
So whoever cameb up with playing the "take a shot for every int" drinking game...I hates you
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:17 PM ^
I could use a shot or five.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:19 PM ^
Come on over I'm in Rochester by
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:20 PM ^
Ny, damn phone
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:24 PM ^
If I jump in my car now I can get to Rochester in 6 hours 26 minutes according to mapquest. Is that a decent time for you?
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:31 PM ^
Haha at this rate I may be dead...beers on me in a few weeks when I'm back in Michigan if we win
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:21 PM ^
I love this if the typos were intentional... I love this even more if they weren't.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:15 PM ^
This game will not improve unless we stop allowing defenders an untouched passage to Denard.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:17 PM ^
Fairly well. Denard is not thinking when he throws and he is taking forever and a day to decide.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:20 PM ^
Very indecisive and unsure if himself...
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:21 PM ^
3 of his 4 ints have a virtually unblocked defender right in his face and he's throwing the ball too hard.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:29 PM ^
That's a lazy excuse. Your #1 job as a QB is take care of the football by making smart choices. Denard is making terrible choices. There's always something going on in the pocket, its your job as QB to ignore and make a smart choice. No excuses.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:37 PM ^
That decision should be made w his feet to buy time
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:23 PM ^
In a way, Denard almost has too much time to throw. He's sitting in the pocket too long, until he reaches a point where he has to throw because he's not outside the pocket to run, and then just forces it toward a receiver who is covered (double covered? not in the area at all?)
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:25 PM ^
Denard has had plenty of time to pass. He just keeps making stupid decisions. There's really no excuse for it.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:24 PM ^
Or, you know, if Denard would quit making terrible choices with the ball. Untouched defender or not, make some good choices.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:16 PM ^
4th quarter. That is all.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:22 PM ^
this.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:17 PM ^
Defense can be improved and will tighten up. Our INTs are absolutely killing us. If we can calm Denard down and start running something that resembles an offense, then we definitely can turn this around. Denard is the x-factor right now. Get him going, and this is completely possible. Let's do this thing! Go Blue!
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:20 PM ^
He's a veteran. He knows what to do. Two of those picks are definitely on him, the pass to Gardner was on the money but gardner cut very slowly. The last pass all 3 receivers slowed down.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:26 PM ^
You can literally do no worse with someone else at QB. Maybe sitting him for a series wakes him up. Or forces him to remember which team to throw to.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:17 PM ^
The D is actually playing well which makes this hurt even more. Run or throw it away.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:18 PM ^
Please tell me it gets better. I mean we're only down by 10 with 5 turnovers.
Go Blue! Let's crush the Irish in the second half.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:19 PM ^
I've never been less worried about being shutout in the first half
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:21 PM ^
it will be nice to look back at the 2nd half of this and remember the great comeback to beat Notre Dame
We got them right where we want them
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:22 PM ^
The starting of a brand new game.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:22 PM ^
Good god...they came out strong and couldn't put anything on the board. That can't happen on the road. Very frustrating. And for whatever their problems in the running game and the OL, Denard does not need to be throwing interception after interception.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:22 PM ^
Yeah, that first half was....interesting.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:23 PM ^
lets goblue!!!
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:23 PM ^
ND's in trouble...Denard's playing right-handed for the second half.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:25 PM ^
It was worse last year, and we know how that turned out.
Hang in there guys. You're faring better than my team did against ND.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:25 PM ^
And put in Devin or Russel? One more INT? No scoring in the 3rd? What?
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:26 PM ^
Denard is not a passer period. Quite frankley he sucks. He has steadily gotten worse season to season. He's become so predictable as both a runner and passer that against semi good defenses he is no longer effective. Teams just ignore the play fake becasue no one else can run either. Sit him on the bench and let Gardner or Belomy give it a shot. How could the result be any worse.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:27 PM ^
Are an idiot
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:28 PM ^
Change for who?
Definitely not me.
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:41 PM ^
should try and make a cohesive arguement as to why I'm incorrect. I'm sure it won't be to hard.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:27 PM ^
Denards interceptions in this game: over under
6, this game? I hope not.
Two hands worth?
I'm saying denard throws for 2 TDs and runs for 1.
245 yards for Michigan/denard in the 2nd half.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:27 PM ^
Is Bellomy coming in?Or is that wishful thinking.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:30 PM ^
You honestly think a redshirt freshman qb with no significant game experience would be any better against that defense?
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:30 PM ^
Denard just needs to get it going. We aren't far behind. Drob has got this
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:29 PM ^
does he get a chance in the offense during the second half?
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:32 PM ^
A td kick return
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:29 PM ^
So whoever started that thread about worst qb performance earlier this week ... I hate you. That first half was a group effort with denard Vincent and Golston.
