Michigan / Northern Illinois - Game Thread (12 PM, BTN)

You  are huge underdogs. You have short yardage. Have some balls and go for it.

We weren't stopping anything

This is still gonna be a blowout, but it will interesting to see how the “Vincent Gray is totally fine” narrative holds up.  I think the LB looked worse than the corners on that drive, for the little that is worth.

I will say, I've missed these threads where everyone complains constantly about Michigan and the coaches because literally anything positive happened for the other team.

Bend don't break is fine but tackling.... Really bad...

They had us on our heels. Now was the time to go for it. They’ll probably regret it

Nice play call

Henning has some wheels

Oh shit. One more step and Henning's still running. 

I don’t know how this year will end up boys but there is some talent on this team. 

Man Henning is explosive. I'm glad they're getting him the ball. Haskins also very shifty for his size.

Our RBs are pretty good. 

Both of our RB have great vision. 
 

Mike Hart is a great coach

Either that's a flag or you have to catch that.

That's PI.

How is that not Pi!?

Underthrown. It hung up a bit. 

That was PI

PI!

Kind of pass interference 

The patience our backs have compared to every year prior to Hart arriving is eye opening

Good call. Almost a TD. He jumped too soon

Good throw

P I on CJ ?

Vincent gray would have been ejected for that defense against MSU last year 

BS non call

Is Bell not on crutches anymore? Good for him if that’s true.

Sport ruined by officiating. Trash

Carl Grapentine enunciating all syllables of the word “sophomore” over the stadium PA

The absolute platonic ideal of that word

O Line absolutely blowing away NIs D Line. Gashes.

10-12 yard cushion on Baldwin. They effectively handed us 4 yards there. 

Donovan sighting

Edwards!!!

Well, we seem to be trying to get the WR involved today.

Cade is fine. Need to see some tight window throw once we q have a good lead. So far so good

F the haters, this offense is fun 

TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Niiiiiiiice

Yep, NIU should have gone for the TD.  Does not appear they are going to have much success defensively.

If you can't stop us NIU, FGs are not going to cut it. 

Haven’t seen a rushing attack like this since…?

Nice answer drive ! Exactly what we were looking for after last NI possession.

Has anyone started complaining that Michigan’s only getting 1-yard touchdowns?

Time for defense to lock down and punish that bastard QB

Come on D. Crisp tackling this drive. I am sure they were yelled at at the sideline. Let us go D

Looking good boys.  Lets keep working that passing game.
