Michigan - Iowa Game Thread
I've never done one of these before but it's about 20 minutes to kick-off and none of the usual suspects have stepped forward so I guess it's time. I'm feeling good about this game and think Michigan wins 24-14. Meanwhile, over on ESPN Sparty takes on the Cats at noon so we've got plenty of Michigan (the state of) football to watch early.

Exactly
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:20 PM ^
Al even becomes predictable when he starts doing things that work.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:20 PM ^
WOOOOO! A 3rd and long conversion. That feels good.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:21 PM ^
Good job
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:21 PM ^
Way to lead with the shoulder...
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:21 PM ^
Crossing routes right into each other
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:21 PM ^
Well, at least our pass blocking looks better this drive.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:22 PM ^
We picked up a blitz and lookie lookie
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:22 PM ^
Way to pick up the blitz young man! NICE!
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:22 PM ^
Yes blitz pickup.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:22 PM ^
Here come the power I runs...
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:22 PM ^
Finches jump bal .. Watch
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:22 PM ^
What a difference good pass pro makes for Devin's accuracy. Wow
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
Not just accuracy, he's even more dangerous scrambling when he can pick his holes rather than just run for dear life with 3 guys in his face
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:23 PM ^
#slippery.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:23 PM ^
getting some stuff done
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:23 PM ^
It took our backs 11 weeks to cut block a blitzing lb.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:23 PM ^
You call plays like old people fuck. You know that Private Borges? Move it! Move it! Private Borges whatever you do don't fall out of the OC booth! That would break my fucking heart!
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:24 PM ^
And actually score before the half instead of giving up a score???
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:24 PM ^
Here it comes...I just pray Gardner doesn't get killed and fumble.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:24 PM ^
Glen Mason just had a major stutter
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:24 PM ^
I missed the kickoff. Who got the ball first?
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:24 PM ^
Please don't do it!!
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:25 PM ^
That was pretty!
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:25 PM ^
Great audible by Gardner.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:25 PM ^
Our only play from that formation. Thank God it worked.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
Why can't we run some inside zone stuff from it. You can run that bubble screen action as well. Mind bottling.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:25 PM ^
I knew that speed option was coming when he checked to Pistol. Glad it worked.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:32 PM ^
Great minds think alike my friend. Yours probably greater than mine, though.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:25 PM ^
Regardless of today I think it's safe to say next week is going to suck
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
No turnovers ... Points ... Don't get greedy
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
So if Hoke has a headset on...who is calling these plays this drive? That might explain it.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
why does # 41 continue to trot out there for kick coverages and returns every week? i see this walkon scrub pulling a swayze every single snap yet hes still out there. 5'7" 175lb rudy should not be constant disappearing act and still get reps. i dont care how "hard" he works and how much "effort" he puts forth during the week to "earn" a spot on hokes special team units, the dude gets embarassed like a child every snap, forget about actually making plays. not a perfect example or microcosm of why UM looks like they do on a weekly basis, but close enough. and whoever mentioned courtney avery in earlier post - dont worry, hes only got 1-2 games left....real nice kid who reps UM well and tried hard and puts out effort, but unfortunately hes just not very athletic and not impact player. hopefully some of these young hyped recruits can play fast and violent and smart next year ...safety is supposed to be an impact position where elite athletes make game changings plays, not a stop gap average joe you just hope does not miss his assignment. hopeful for future of UM program but elite athletes who consistently show up and ball out win conference and national titles and this team is at least year or two away from approaching that type of roster. in the interim, please play either starters or athletic backups on ST....if its truly equal 1/3 of the game as hoke insists, then walkons with zero tackles and slow unathletic backup RBs should never touch the field
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:27 PM ^
Feel better?
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
Standard pitch option is from rich rod days. Got it Glenn
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
...run a QB blast with Kerridge leading the way.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
Ice Ice Baby rocking Kinnick!
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:27 PM ^
We can't have nice things.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:27 PM ^
Well that was doomed anyway
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:27 PM ^
To run it up the middle!!!!
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:28 PM ^
Just jump ball it to Funchess.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:28 PM ^
He would've got at least 6 yards...
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:28 PM ^
But, I did like the collison with Green and whoever that was...Green did not move an inchi back. I think it was Hitchins...they have a nice liitle back and forth going on a few collisions now. Green is holding own against a guy much older...as he should based on his ability, but good to see nonetheless.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:28 PM ^
Butt was wide open there.
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:28 PM ^
Why a TO with 47 left? Wow that's fucking stupid
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:29 PM ^
Big third down
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:29 PM ^
Does a band play anywhere anymore?
November 23rd, 2013 at 1:29 PM ^
Nice play .... Would have scored on that one
