Things discussed:

• Craig Ross’s radio firsts
• Good to pound a bad opponent rather than struggling, e.g. Cincy, AF
• Door is wide open for freshman tackles.
• Down G: Second week in a row my Neck Sharpies is the first topic of the show. Thanks Sam!
• We won’t see it as often in the future: this was a wrinkle that was good against WMU.
• Running backs and WMU being bad caused the good day on the ground.
• Lions vs 49ers odds.
• Craig’s history lesson: Detroit Wolverines were bought by New York just so they could steal Benny Friedman, so Detroit had to steal the Portland Lions.
• At 17:50 they come back to Michigan’s OL if you want to skip the Lions. Hudson looked very good in his limited time.
• Tru Wilson had one of those flip-a-guy cut blocks
• EXTREMELY low pass protection opportunities says Michigan still thinks they can’t pass block.
• SMU: Not good.
• Shea turns easy throws into easy catches. Missed 3 throws.
• Sam: Brandon Watson has been M’s best corner.
• Kemp does pretty well against a meatball
• Hurst was Hurst-y by this point in Dwumfour’s career.
• Josh Ross is comin’. Think he’s your WLB and gonna have a great career.

I didn’t flip out over a Lions loss. I took it in stride.
