and Borges is just bad. End of story.
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:40 PM ^
Borges is the worst play caller I have ever seen. There is absolutely no continuity or theme to his offense - just a random collection of seemingly ill-timed plays. There is no way our players are just this bad!!
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:45 PM ^
How can it be random when he runs the same play back to back to back. Loved the fake throw-run the first 25 times they ran it and especially loved the back to back reverses. Brilliant
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:51 PM ^
Shhhhhh!
Don't let Ohio State know about it.
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:45 PM ^
The question is, who is to blame for that?
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:49 PM ^
The offensive line has played horribly, but there is no way they are simply not talented/smart enough to succeed. They are playing to the level they are coached.

RR- Top 10 offense, bottom 10 defense
cHoke- Top 10 defense, bottom 10 offense

Not looking forward to next week. OSU will look to embarrass us because they need the style points. Our D, will keep us in it for a half at best.... but eventually after all the 3 and outs they will roll us by 4 or 5 touchdowns....easy. I hope I'm not right but the odds are not in our favor.
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:55 PM ^
Do you seriously think that there are any style points possible for beating a 7-4 downtrodden Michigan team this year?
The only good thing is that we will drop Ohio State's standing in the rankings simply by showing up on the field next Saturday.

Even the Big10 network talking heads are laughing at us!!!

The players deserve better. Poor choice 3 years ago and we are seeing the results of hiring a coach with a 47 and 50 record.

Or they were highly overrated recruits. Michigan on paper rivals OSU in talent! But good coaches like at MSU can coach up players. I don't see this happening here.
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:52 PM ^
This. Our players are not developing whatsoever, and that lands squarely on the coaches.
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:53 PM ^
The occasional mistake can be put on the shoulders of a player; a systematic regression across nearly all fronts is on the coaches.

Perfectly stated. In the Liveblog I said "If our WR's caught 100% of the passes thrown to them, and the OL never missed a block, Borges would be a genius." My point was that no teams' players will ever execute perfectly, and if that's what it takes for your offense to succeed, then it's simply not a viable offense.

This is not pretty, and the same standard should be applied to him as was applied ot Rich Rod. Borges and Funk should be gone, minimum.

November 23rd, 2013 at 5:54 PM ^
I remember watching Brady in his initial press conference way back when and thinking the same thing, but then I watched the reactions of everyone else watching it, and they loved him! So I figured my judgment was poor. I did then try to have an open mind, but now can't shake my initial response.
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:46 PM ^
can be a difficult place for David Brandon, Brady Hoke and Al Borges to hide.
7-5 is in the bag.
On to more serious questions: Can these shaky coaches hang on to Michigan's recruits?
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:46 PM ^
3rd and 5 and run the option with the fullback as the pitch man. Sigh...... I am finally on the fire Borges side.
Now.....Beat OSU!
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:46 PM ^
The season ended for me today. No point in even watching next week's public execution. Changes need to be made. However, none will be forthcoming. Michigan... aka... the Exxon Valdez, will stay the course.
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:46 PM ^
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:47 PM ^
Brady needs to walk his fat ass back to Ball State - though I doubt they'd even want him back there.
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:47 PM ^
November 23rd, 2013 at 3:49 PM ^
but please fire Funk at the end of the season too!

Michigan-Where no yardage is better than negative yardage.
