The last time we played in Evanston

There were times back then when I thought the whole team was on something.

I will sometimes go back to Brian and Ace's Gimmicky Top 5 on the Most Ridiculous Games of the Hoke Era, which was inspired by this game.  It's pretty hilarious, still.

My wife and I were at that game.  It was just a bizarre game and weekend, all in all.  The weather was really balmy starting out on Saturday.  But as the game got closer, it started to threaten rain.  It finally started raining during the game.  Then the bizarre game, that fortunately ended in a win.  The next day started out really warm and windy - especially for a day in November - reaching 70 degrees.  But there was a humongous storm coming in from the west.  We unwisely decided to try and take a whirlwind tour of the Science and Industry museum before driving home.  This enabled the storm to catch up with us on the way home and we drove in a horrible driving, heavy rain almost the entire way back to Ann Arbor.  

That video is pure gold.  I'm so glad we can laugh at that now.  It did not feel funny when it was happening.

That 2014 team had redshirt senior Devin Gardner passing to three NFL receivers and it couldn't score. Breathtaking lack of competence by the offensive staff. 

DGs mechanics were so bad.  Too bad he has such horrible coaching.

My favorite memory of this game...is what happened one week later, when this Northwestern team went to South Bend, scored 43 points and beat Notre Dame.  M00N itself can go away forever.

To give an idea of how much this past decade has sucked; the majority of the wins from RichRod and Hoke are looked at with almost as much horror as the losses.

Wow what a mess.

I couldn't watch more than about 30 seconds

There have been some ugly games with Northwestern. I remember the 12-6 slopfest in 98 that was Justin Fargas' coming out party.

I've had a lot of miserable fan experiences watching Michigan Football in person. I have a Fan Endurance badge. I was front and center for The Horror. The list goes on.

This was the least fun game. We just about left early. It was awful. Nothing about it was enjoyable.

This game was during a couple years of me deciding to not waste my saturdays watching M play football.  I have since watched it on BTN and it is super painful. I would rather chew on tin foil.

At the same time, what a beautiful reminder about how far we have really come.

I was there. Left the game chanting, “We suck less!”  A NW fan responded by chanting, “Not by much!”

2014...An interesting year to be sure. Being born in 1985, this was the first year of my life that I looked forward to the Lions on Sunday more than I did Michigan on Saturday. Just some sad times. 

I found that hilarious and sad. 

I was there.  

Even worse was Maryland the next week when bowl eligibility went bye bye.  It was 28 degrees out that day.

That game was so bad it was amazingly funny. Also I miss the Maize pants

Frank Beckmann was doing the PBP, the joy in his voice was so heartening

I.  Was.  There.

I've been laughing at this vid all week. Glad our program is now at a place where it is to the point where this is funny because it certainly wasn't at the time.

Whenever someone gets far too caught up in the few setbacks Harbaugh has had, I just want to shove this video right up their ass. What Harbaugh game, let alone Harbaugh WIN, has ever felt THIS bad? We've come a long way pretty quickly.

Really need  Yakkity  Saxs on tape loop to go with this.  

The greatest blooper reel ever produced. All from one game. It’s art. Pure art.

This video had me laughing my ass off and feeling terrible for doing so.

Devin Gardner had all the physical tools to be an unstoppable football god, and even was at times (when he stepped in for Denard in 2012, ND and OSU 2013), and the coaching staff at the time did absolutely nothing with him.

I forgot about that game.
