Could Michigan win tomorrow with me as the QB?
Seeing as Jake Rudddock may or may not be healthy enough to start tomorrow, I felt this would be an appropriate question.
If I were to start as the QB for Michigan tomorrow and play the entirety of the game, would Michigan still win?
I guess in this exercise, my abilities as a QB are probably pretty inconsequential. For a random person off the street, I'd be a 8.5/10 in terms of QB abilities. You probably wouldn't mind having me on your flag football team, but I wouldn't wow anyone either. In terms of a college QB, though, I would be a -6/10. I don't know the scheme. I haven't played organized football in 13 years (and 50 lbs).
The real point of this post is to determine whether people think that Michigan can pull off a win despite any and all shortcomings at the QB position. Should we be worried if Jake is in street clothes, or should we still be able to shrug it off and expect a comfortable win?

It depends...give me your mesurables. I need to know things like:
- How many throws do you complete to stangers across State St, during pre-game tailgates?
- What's your beer pong make %?
- Is your name Gary Nova?
- Do you eat steak and drink whole milk daily?
- Have you ever thrown a football with 110,000 people watching?
- How's your butt?

Clearly not Gary Nova. He said he's a -6/10 for college QB. Mr. Nova is about a 12. Remember that time he put up 400 yds against us?!?

You? No. Me? Yes.

"Rutgers by the numbers" thread. The answer is yes, for both you and the OP. Also me, my wife, and the cute chick in line at Starbucks this morning.
Rutgers is, not good.

and the light was such that I could just make out the lacey thong she was wearing underneath them. It was red.
Excuse me, I'll brb.

Says "Donut Porn"?
November 6th, 2015 at 11:26 AM ^
I like donuts.
November 6th, 2015 at 11:32 AM ^
Sexually or digestively?
November 6th, 2015 at 11:33 AM ^
what way do you like donuts? I trust you only use them conventionally, correct?
November 6th, 2015 at 11:37 AM ^
Can you be so sure, maybe he is a fan of American Pie....
November 6th, 2015 at 12:05 PM ^
The conventional sense. My social media follows and hobbies expose me to lots of photos of delicious fried treats.

laughed out loud at this, and giggled on and off for a minute or two. Very nice.

Ah, the internet. Where someone with the name 'Donut Porn' can take the moral high ground on the sexualization of women. What a great place.
November 6th, 2015 at 3:26 PM ^
...And have it be hilarious.. :
"I like donuts." he explained.
Damn, just started cracking up again.. :)

I could up and down vote you at the same time.
Settled for up. Even if this was a touch tawdry, women make the world a better place.

Rutgers is...I would remind you, however, that they nearly beat State. I hope the 'Rutgers sucks' mentality is rejected by the Wolverines.

if the last two games of "we are totally going to destroy them because of STATISTICS" have not taught us anything I am not sure what will.
November 6th, 2015 at 3:30 PM ^
but Berman spoke truth when he said "that's why they play the games".
All people who, like me, love stats, must remember this.

No.
Next Question.

What if he only does it one day per week? Or two? Or every day but just a few ounces? Or only once every two weeks but he blacks out?
These are the questions that must be answered.

Eh. It's a valid question that is phrased in a cutesy way. MGoBlog doesn't really like to do cutesy. Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

No WR, 3TE, FB, RB, Peppers. Triple option every play.

Translation: Could Michigan win tomorrow if they don't run a single pass play and they lose at least a few fumbles?
Answer: Maybe? Probably not.
November 6th, 2015 at 11:01 AM ^
the forward pass is a recent innovation which should only be used sparingly.
EDIT: Fun fact, during one OSU / Michigan game in the 70's, OSU didn't throw a single pass because their QB was hurt. We won, but Woody kept it close IIRC.

Rick Leach was 0-6 with an interception against Ohio State in 1976: a 22-0 win.
