Best thing you saw: Week 2
Another week of entertaining games, including a wake-up call in Ann Arbor. There were definitely some solid finishes with ND-GA and the battle for all the corn and blonde maidens in Iowa the most entertaining. With that…
Non-Michigan: though in a loss, I came away VERY impressed with Phillips (#4) of Western, he of the fumble return and KO return for all of their points. He nearly added a pick to his day. Watching OSU get dismantled for the second time in three games was very enjoyable. The 4th quarter and OT of Iowa – Iowa St. was great theater. However…the one-handed TD catch by GA was the best thing I saw today. Incredible effort.
Michigan: funny how 18- and 19-year olds don’t always bring the same emotion and energy week-to-week. Up 14 early, M looked like it let off the gas because ‘this gonna be easy’. Best thing I saw here was a coachable moment – all within a win – that could prove the difference in keeping this young team’s attention as the games get tougher.
What say you?

over to 11W. They're... less than pleased.
So best thing to me is Michigan won. Obvious comment is obvious, but college football is a funny thing. The team probably read too much of their own hype after beating Florida and now have great lessons to learn from a W and on to preparing for 3-0.

Adam Sandler has no idea how to coach, so that was amusing to watch.

When asked about Pitt, he's quoted as saying "For us, this is just like beating Akron". I hope Narduzzi never forgets that.
OSU and ND losing was pretty sweet too.
September 10th, 2017 at 12:32 AM ^
I hope Akron cleans their clocks someday, before Franklin is fired.
They've lost to Cincinnati, they've lost to Ohio U., they've lost to Toledo. Why not Akron?

Don't fall for the catchy headline without any context.
He means it's just like Akron because they prepare the same for every game and respect every opponent equally.

Franklin followed his initial comments quickly by telling reporters "to interpret that however you want," saying he considers each week like its own Super Bowl for his team.
Even the reporter after he said it said, "Okay, I see what you mean."
He wasn't being an asshole. People are reading the headline, saying OOOHHHH WHAT A JERK, and then not actually paying attention.
Context is a wonderful thing.
September 10th, 2017 at 9:21 AM ^
By instead saying "interpret that however you want", he is explicitly doing the opposite by deliberately opening up the option for people to take it as a passive-aggressive dig.

Franklin reminds me of my nephew's four-year-old "accidentally" hitting grown men in the groin as they walked by.
Interpret that however you want.

Three rivals lost.
Big win for the Huron, er, Eagles, with their first "Power 5" win over SUNJ.

What OSU looks like without home cooking...
September 10th, 2017 at 12:34 AM ^
Lol without home cooking? Barrett got away with an obvious pick in the end zone that the refs refused to review
September 10th, 2017 at 12:33 AM ^

Chase Winovich acquired Jake Ryan's hair color and it strangely makes him look like a serial killer:
