If it's not good for either team, then isn't it also good both teams? Glass half full my friend. And with superior talent, good and good means we benefit.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:38 PM ^
I really wish that the lightning would have held off until after that drive. Right when we get going...
October 20th, 2018 at 1:01 PM ^
If Shea would have held it on 3rd and 3 we would be up by 7 and not talking about this.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:39 PM ^
Right!
October 20th, 2018 at 12:39 PM ^
I just hope it washes away all of that white paint they used a couple hours ago to cover up bush’s artistic masterpiece.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:39 PM ^
I think so. I kept waiting last year for the delay and it never came. Let conditions clear up a bit.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:39 PM ^
Bush should stomp on the logo some more while screaming at the storm like Lt. Dan.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:50 PM ^
Id pay to see that.
October 20th, 2018 at 1:21 PM ^
Or like Caddyshack
October 20th, 2018 at 12:39 PM ^
Absolutely. They will delay until the bad weather is through, which means no monsoon to play in this year.
And the stadium will be half full.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:39 PM ^
Just gives Don Brown time to do what he usually does at halftime.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:42 PM ^
This is what I'm thinking. We usually make good halftime adjustments, so I'm just gonna think of this as halftime #1. See what kind of tweaks are made on both sides of the ball.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:45 PM ^
They've had the ball once
October 20th, 2018 at 12:58 PM ^
That's all Don needs.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:40 PM ^
Good thing it’s 2nd and 5. Drives after delays are always screwed
October 20th, 2018 at 12:40 PM ^
This weather delay garbage reminds me of msu vs psu last year in east lansing. It definitely helped msu, obviously
October 20th, 2018 at 12:41 PM ^
All they need to do is not let Sparty get a lead. I'm confident we can wear them out down the stretch.
It will be a close game because of weather. In a good weather situation, UM wins by 2 TDs.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:41 PM ^
I think we look better than Sparty in the limited gametime so far.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:42 PM ^
Just keep the horizontal passing and zone running games going. Don’t panic. Use Mason. Control field position. Win.
October 20th, 2018 at 1:06 PM ^
Supposedly stronger winds coming.
October 20th, 2018 at 1:07 PM ^
Doesn’t matter. Everything I said above stands
October 20th, 2018 at 12:43 PM ^
Not good when you're driving down the field to score and Mork knows it and can't do anything stop it. Need some more designed runs by Shea, going to make them pull a guy out to spot him.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:43 PM ^
I think it's a good opportunity to look at what they were doing defensively and how shea has a lot of opportunity on those read options
October 20th, 2018 at 12:44 PM ^
A lot of you guys need to calm down. This doesn't benefit anyone. We're not even ten minutes into the game. While I like the offensive gameplan, we've only had a few first downs. Let's not act like we're running up and down the field and now MSU can adjust.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:44 PM ^
You guys put way too much weight into this shit. The superior team will win and that's Michigan. That drive was just the start. I guarantee this takes the wind out of the Spartan sails while Michigan continues to game plan and out play msu.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:55 PM ^
I agree with you. Sparty only wins if their emotion can overcome our talent. Not likely in any event, less likely now that theyve lost the edge. Its hard to get back up after youve come down. Look at any team that blows a big lead. You cant just turn it back on.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:45 PM ^
It's just going to make Higdon that much hungrier. He and the OL know that the runs will be there.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:45 PM ^
Agreed. The less that emotion plays into the outcome, the better for the team with better players
October 20th, 2018 at 12:45 PM ^
I agree, benefits us
October 20th, 2018 at 12:46 PM ^
Everything on the outside is there for the taking. Im fine with more Shea keeps and throws to the outside. Dont run up the middle.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:47 PM ^
Every pass and every run to the perimeter has been wide open so far
October 20th, 2018 at 12:46 PM ^
This is not good for us. Nothing unexpected in this series has ever been good for us. Eat at Arby's.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:56 PM ^
Drew Stanton getting hurt in 2004 was pretty good for us
October 20th, 2018 at 12:46 PM ^
Well 30 minutes to script plays- I’d like to see them come out no huddle for that one series- get them off balance a bit.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:48 PM ^
We can't consistently get the plays in when we huddle -- seems highly unlikely that a no-huddle would go well
October 20th, 2018 at 12:47 PM ^
Can't be optimistic. Won't be optimistic.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:48 PM ^
I certainly hope Harbaugh and Brown are reading this board on the weather break. Some really good ideas they can use.
October 20th, 2018 at 1:08 PM ^
I got another good idea - Ronnie Bell, turn it up next time and don't lose your footing.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:49 PM ^
Michigan should play MSU in San Diego. It’s 70 and sunny here urryday
October 20th, 2018 at 12:49 PM ^
Did Bush come back onto the field?
October 20th, 2018 at 12:56 PM ^
He did.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:49 PM ^
Are they clearing the stadium?
October 20th, 2018 at 12:50 PM ^
Somewhere there is a goat missing it’s blood
October 20th, 2018 at 12:50 PM ^
Shit, just looking at the hourly forecast this might not get started again today. Showing scattered thunderstorms until late...
October 20th, 2018 at 12:52 PM ^
Why the fuck wouldn’t fans who paid $120+ a ticket come back?
Did you not see 110,000 fans stick it out in torrential downpour during the shitshow game last year?
October 20th, 2018 at 1:11 PM ^
As of this morning you could get tickets for a whopping $66
October 20th, 2018 at 1:12 PM ^
The key difference last year was steady football. There was no random hour long break during the first quarter. And it wasn't 35 degrees.
I would think most will come back today, but they're dissimilar.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:52 PM ^
Agree... Being amped up on fight or flight starts to wear you out after about 30-45 minutes. Wouldn't be surprised to see Staee come out flat after the delay.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:57 PM ^
Can tell that most people didn’t watch the PSU vs. MSU game last year where MSU came out and beat a VASTLY SUPERIOR PSU team after a lengthy weather delay.
October 20th, 2018 at 12:58 PM ^
A PSU team also coached by one James Franklin, who’s proven that he’s not a great in game coach.
