I honestly can't get on the hate train for Jeff Brohm for taking it to the refs when Harbaugh is infamous for the same thing:

So is it "passionate" when Harbaugh does it, but "bitching" when Brohm does it?

Especially when a couple of those were proooobably pretty legit.
BUT!
That's how it goes. I'll take it! Michigan's got hosed by the refs enough in the past year that it's nice it wasn't us this time.

I posted two interviews of both quarterbacks before the season and pointed out that O'Korn had a lot of confidence, and that I wouldn't be surprised if he started. People made fun of me for making this decision based on an interview, but now I think we have a new way to scout who the starters should be...
September 23rd, 2017 at 9:17 PM ^
Buuuuuuuuuut, can't really blame for hoping O'Korn is to Speight, as Brady was to Bledsoe.

O'Kornucopians: a sect of M fans who believe that - in a world in which John O'Korn is M's starting QB - their lives will be overflowing with fruit and vegetables, and, most importantly, victories.
O'Kornutopians: a sect of M fans who believe that - in a world in which John O'Korn is M's starting QB - their lives (and, most importantly, M's offense) will be truly ideal.
UnO'Kornians: a sect of M fans who believe that John O'Korn is a mythical, flying horse-like being with a single, sparkly horn growing from the middle of his forehead and a rainbow-like mane & tail. As such, they believe him to have magical abilities including the ability to render poison water potable and the ability to heal sickness.
Note that there is a rather large overlap between those who self-identify as O'Kornucopians and those who self-identify as O'Kornutopians. Those who despise fruits and vegetables (particularly winter squash) typically self-identify as O'Kornutopians only.
UnO'Kornians, however, are a singular and - not surprisingly - rather fringe group.

And, in case you were wondering, I consider myself to be a full-on UnO'Kornian.

From inept to fully functional offense with the change of a single player.
O'Korn felt pressure, avoided a lot of pressure, found open receivers in spite of pressure, delivered the ball to said receivers, and damn--he was on target.
What a relief. I think we found another Kaepernick.
I hope we found another Kaepernick . . . .
September 23rd, 2017 at 8:51 PM ^
He avoided some pressure. He made some nice throws. He also had to manage the offense against a bad defense and his passes were usually on one read. Maybe that's how this offense should have been with Wilton. That said I'm not sure that a one read pass offense is going to work long term. Glad the bye week is here.
September 23rd, 2017 at 8:25 PM ^
I wonder how many Michigan fans thought exactly this when Speight went down.. I know I did.
September 23rd, 2017 at 8:43 PM ^
cheered and said "good bring in O'Korn" when the injury happened. I wanted to punch him in the face but my wife and daugher were with me.
Conversely, was very happy for JOK

1/1, zero turnovers, 100% completion rate, every single throw he made converted a first down. The only thing that could stop him in this game was the clock.

I guess it made sense to give O'Korn some snaps? Hard for so many on this blog to comprehend.

He has looked good against a limited Purdue defense.
Speight did not.
September 23rd, 2017 at 7:38 PM ^
Considering the lack of reps, I'll take that.
September 23rd, 2017 at 7:47 PM ^
that weren't the best, BUT that's to be expected coming in like that. His second half was just unbeliveable. That second half was awesome!

Rumor has it that Speight took a personal phone call as the 4th Q started. Evidently Drew Bledsoe called to commiserate.
