Loved that the Colorado db wanted no part of Hill coming at him.

Admittedly, I had wandered some distance from my seat at that point in the game and caught a decent view of that sweep. It was even funnier in person really, watching him think, "I think that if I can just......NOPE." and fall over without help basically.

great series. I like the new name.

Good stuff, love the breakdown.

This is fantastic. I could watch him break down the whole game like this.

Yea I was upset that DB cut Hill down like that. Hill rolls around in pain some afterwards, but thankfully came back into the game. Could've gotten seriously injured on that. Looks pretty intentional.

... and I imagine there's a fair amount of work that goes into it: determining what to go over, doing the video edits, recording the audio, cleaning it all up into a finished product.
I love how they replay the same sequence over and over again as they're describing it. It helps reinforce the concepts they're talking about.
Would like it if they highlighted one or two breakdowns on Michigan's part and explain what went wrong. That would show the other side of things.
Morrison is great.

This makes more sense out of those deep pulls by Newsome. Hill appears from behind Newsome, and instead of just sweeping around the end he cuts upfield and comes out of nowhere to attack the linebacker. It's also the kind of play that explains why having players play multiple positions on offense and defense makes sense: Hill isn't just pushing his man back, he's seeking and destroying, darting around like a "skill position" player or like a blitzing safety.

I'd love to see Brian and Ace doing something like this. Maybe add video to the podcast. Engage former players. This segment is just way more communicative than words and pictures.

As noted on the first Peppers TFL, it's a great job by Peppers using eye discipline. As soon as the receiver goes inside to block, Peppers needs to fill the LB's gap responsibility. Thus, crack (block) exchange (gap assignment) and Peppers is able to take advantage of the crack block. Text book how that worked.

And they talk through the plays so even a dummy like me can understand.
Go Blue!

I wonder how many other fanbases have the wealth of knowledge available online for stuff like this. Between UFRs and the other front page breakdowns, plus the diaries and a number of knowledgable posted floating around here (like Space Coyote) on this blog alone. Plus stuff like this. I feel like the Michigan fanbase (given the number on mgoblog and other places) is probably a decent bit more knowledgable in basic strategy than your average fanbase.
I can tell you, without UFRs and the like I'd have no clue what to think of how the OL is blocking or how a DB is responding to a play
