Your favorite Michigan Replay episodes
My top 3:
2002 Washington (I get chills every time I watch the Brabbs kick going in with Beckman on the call)
2003 Notre Dame (This is classic Michigan Replay dialogue between Lloyd and Brandy plus a 38-0 shutout of ND)
2003 Minnesota (It was awesome to see Lloyd celebrating in the Metrodome locker room)
It's mostly the Carr era for me, since I was too young to remember Bo and Mo.
I wish JH would start doing that show style again. I especially loved the Bo era.
The one right after the Appalachian State game in 2007. That one was a classic.
That episode is on youtube.
goblue16 on here posts full seasons of Michigan Replay to his youtube here-

He's currently in the process of putting up the 1987 season.
The Alamo Bowl one had Lloyd riding a horse.
Just watched it, figured it was time...I had never before seen highlights from that game aside from the kick. Brandy opening it sounds like somebody died.
I seem to remember the Moeller episodes always being super awkward. Great coach, but the guy made Lloyd look like Dick Vitale across from Brandy.
I would also buy a box set of the Michigan Replay music, as in the stuff played behind the highlights and such.
There were also a set of Michigan Replay highlight tapes for every season from 1988 through 1992 or 3, and they're all great. The 1988 one gets hauled out just about every year right before the season. I've damn near worn out the tape, and it's not on YouTube anymore.
I actually kind of like the short lived theme they used towards the end of the Schembechler years. It sounded like the background music you'd hear in an 80's sports movie when something dramatic happens.
Yeah. IIRC, it was all done by Larry Santos, a kind of Detroit music legend whose music we all heard every single day back then without knowing it. Ad jingles, radio promos, all sorts of stuff. He had a real big one with McDonald Rentals, if you remember those commercials that ran for years. He did all the Michigan Replay music, and was the guy who sang that cheesy song about Bo the retrospective VHS Michigan Replay put out. Kind of a gruff, almost Seger-esque type effort.
for Michigan Replay---living on the west side of the state, I've never seen that or most of the other TV spots they did to promote the show over the years. Thanks for posting that!
What show through in those 30 seconds is that Bo never let Brandy---or any of his players, for that matter---forget that he was always the one in charge, always their coach. And they loved him for that.
Loved the interview with John Navarre, and the bit with Braylon glad about sending him off with a win.
Also seeing Perry abuse the OSU defense never gets old
1979 play of the century against IU:
"And Bo is looking up at Fielding H Yost in football's Valhalla and saying, thank you Fielding Yost, thank you Fieldng Yost for that one"
Bo (knowing full well, I'm sure): "What is a Valhalla?"
Thanks for chiming in for those of us over 30.
I'm 23 and LOVE that fucking call. Listen to it regularly. Also says something along the lines of "wangler to cater will be heard for another 100 years of Michigan football"
The extended call is best. You here Ufer talking about a Michigan player "fumbling" a ball out play and IU's coach (lee Corso) goes nuts on the sideline.
Then there is an encroachment penalty against IU. The clock gets reset and Ufer makes a comment about it being the fastest 15 mins of football (while the clock is being reset from 0:05 to 0:06)
Lee Corso is STILL butthurtabout that after all these years later. Last time Gameday was on campus and I flew in for UTL1, we were heckling him about it from behind the set. Security told us we had to knock it off.
The one where Brandy fawns over the coach
right..... it would be to bring back Michigan Replay with all the music, format, etc.. It was always must see TV every week during football season back in the day. The Inside Michigan football show right now is a trainwreck and I have no interest in watching it.
Inside Michigan Football this season will virtually be Michigan Replay but with a different name.
It's going to be at 10am on Sunday on a Detroit area TV station.
HALLELUJAH

Whats your next highlight video after 2002 utah game??
2005 Northern Illinois, then 2005 EMU and finally 2005 Indiana. The full 2005 season in wins will be online then between WH and I.
Nice keep em comin man!!
is the Michigan Replay after the 1981 Rose Bowl win over Washington.
Did they have an episode after the BG because usually they just do a preview?
after the bowl game, yes, when I was growing up, in any event.
This one kind of speaks for itself...
No one had it better than us.
My favorite one is the one where Brady Hoke says we need to execute better.
More coming by the way I have every episode from 83-93 and 2003-2007
Thanks for posting the 2007 Capital One Bowl Preview. The Lloyd Carr tribute video at the end is great. Someone had just that part uploaded, but it was taken down (probably copyright infringement because of the Bob Seger song).
That was also the last episode of Michigan Replay.
Anybody remember when they did Michigan Replay episodes for basketball during the early 90s? I only remember it happening a few times, but it was pretty weird/cool.
They did it in the 2000s as well with Amaker I believe it was 2002 not sure about any other years. Bball was awful these years so I never saw a reason to record it
Uh... The season where the team won like 15 straight games and may have sniffed the tourney if not for the NCAA sanctions? OK, man.
Sanctions made the season a big waste. No one remembers individual games in bball. Actually they finished 4th in the big ten best finish of the 2000s and they probably would have made the tourney. Wonder how that would have changed Amakers career at Michigan
Oh and it was 13 straight ended the season 17-13 after starting 0-6! Big ten was really down these years only 2 teams ranked and played 4 ranked teams all season.
For as much as its loss is bemoaned, Michigan Replay wouldn’t be the same. It used to be the first time you could see extensive highlights. Now, you could relive any play you want a hundred times by Sunday morning through DVR and the internet.
Agree with the highlights thing, but now that Harbaugh is on the show it instantly becomes must-see TV.
I remember The show after ND in 2006 being pretty great. Even more fawning and smugness than usual.
