Three of the four playoff teams didn't have a top ten win, Michigan had 3 Osu had one given to them and beat Wiskey in a dog fight. Everyone uses the argument that we beat PSU early. it was 4 games in and how does that matter they won the East Wiskey won the West and Florida won the East in the SEC Colorado was a top ten team and UCF win looks pretty good now doesn't it? Lost by 1 to FSU in pretty much a home game for them with a injured QB without the best TE in the country and our top Player in Peters and Harbaugh sucks! I just don't get it

They also lost to 5-7 Wake Forest, and three 8-5 teams (Oregon State, Arizona, Cal) in a much weaker conference. We are averaging only 24 yards less on the ground than that Stanford team did. Is a "good" win worth a "bad" loss to say, Rutgers? In my opinion, it is not. One major improvement over Hoke's teams is not losing to teams that we have no business losing to. Every loss this year has been to a top 25 team.

Yeah, we killed Wisconsin's OL so badly that they only got 182 yards rushing for 4.6 per carry and 325 yds total offense. We just shut them down.

until the D collapsed again late in the 3rd. For a while I thought we were going to win 10-7. But the non PI WI got on 3rd and forever when they were inside their own 20 was a killer.

STRENGHTH AND CONDITIONING FOR THE LOVE OF PETE! When you start seeing stuff like this, Michigan will be where it needs to be.

We knew recruiting wasn't going to get any easier. I'm getting tired of the people here who seem to think that you can only build a good line from top rated recruits and you should expect it to take 5 years. That's not how it works. The great recruiting comes secondary to success. If the coaching staff knows what they're doing they will be able to mold a great OL from 3 stars.

We have 2 , 4* OT true freshmen right now, and another 4*OT on 2019 commit, and two 4* OT for 2018. Disappointing, he chose Wisc, but not panic inducing.
Oh and the 2 4* OT for 2018 are from in-state.

Our WRs have 0 ability to get separation. They’re the crux of this team. Not the line. And even the WRs will probably be fine when they are all healthy and have another offseason to learn.

at home next season he will commit to Michigan.
November 19th, 2017 at 11:46 AM ^
Guys come and go and come back again (sometimes).
There will be some coaching changes that allow us to flip a guy to Michigan who might be committed to somewhere else. A lot can happen in January!
Just hoping Newsome can come back for next year and this time he can undercut a Wisky player and get revenge for a dirty play.

Early signing period now in December changes when a lot of coaches will get fired. Just an FYI

What is going on with this blog? Most experts had Michigan taking a step back this season losing to Florida, PSU, Wiskey and OSU subsitute MSU for Florida and its just as perdicted. This is a bit of a rebuilding year, Doug Karsch said before the season that this will be Harbaughs worst year then when it happens everyone loses their freaking minds.
if you don't think this team has improved and has been competitive over the last 3 years and Harbaugh isn't the guy who do you think is? Again Harbaugh didn't drop the punt snap against MSU he didn't make the calls that cost them against OSU he didn't rule DPJ's TD was't yesterday those things don't happen and we probably are not having these conversations. I get it they did, but come on.
Dantonio has made his share of blunders and lost games too, how did Urbans trip to Iowa go?
Stop micro analyzing everthing and see that this team is heading in the right direction and we are not 3 - 9 and he hasn't lost his players. I know over the last 3 years heading into the Big House I feel like we had a chance to win , I didn't feel that way the previous 7 years!
We are not Nebraska, Texas, Florida Tennessee, or even ND to some extent be thankful for what we have and stop being such a bitchy fanbase pull up your big boy pants and enjoy the games for fuck sakes

Experts say we should go 8-4. Fine, so we are going to be 8-4 now which is right at expert expectations.
Why do experts think we will be 8-4? Inexperience? Less talent than the teams we are expected to lose to? There are a number of inputs.
The reason to be upset is that 8-4 is the reasonable expectation, and a lot of people don’t see the deficiencies being improved which means that might remain the reasonable expectation. One notable area is the offensive line. Lack of elite recruits and unsure about development and growth.

We played MSU with a backup QB that just can't get it done with 5 turnovers 4 on our half of the field and still lost by only 4 to a 8-3 team that stacked the box because they knew we couldn't throw, at least not accurately and you have people wanting to give Dantonio the BIG coach of the year the same coach that lost by 20 to ND and 45 to OSU mix in a loss to NW and get PSU at home in another rain storm and don't play Wiskey and why because he sucked yacks ass last year? There is an anti Harbaugh agenda don't fall into Michigan fans

So two years out? Yeah, a lot can change in the interim. Good luck to him if he goes to Wisconsin, but getting worked up this far in the future is silly.

during the game regarding what OL of Wisconsin were making in the NFL, what kid wouldn't want to go to Wisconsin?
I happen to beleve good OL players are developed by good coaching. There is no evidence of that from Michigan.
November 19th, 2017 at 1:09 PM ^
because of this important recruiting miss.
But at the same time, those people who keep blaming the Hoke/RR Oline gaps as a reason why our oline/team sucks should understand what this may be. Another recruiting gap . . .
November 19th, 2017 at 1:12 PM ^
Let's take a breath sit back and look at who we are playing- Ruiz Fr. , DPJ Fr. , Solomon Fr. , Thomas Fr. , Black inj. Fr. , Collins Fr. JKP Fr. Gary So., Bredeson So. , Peters So. , Long So. Onwenu So. Walker So., Crawford So. , Hill So. , Kemp So, Bush So. , Evans So., Hudson So McDoom So. Nordin So. Mckeon So. Dwumfour So.

In my lifetime dating back to 1966 we have one shared National Championship but somehow everyone seems to think we dominate college football. With our resources I kinda think we could but who knows. I will always go to the games and cheer maize and blue. All the other gloom and doom bullshit from the bandwagon fanbase will take care of itself.

I think you're right, I know Fred Jackson sorry if you read this blog Fred but Fred is a goofy bastard but he could recruit, recruiting matters despite what Spartys like to say watch the teams that finish high in the recruiting rankings they usually finish high in the AP rankngs too.
Kids are fickle hard to read and make decisions that leave you saying huh? Like Hand choosing Bama when he said education was a big deal to him. You can't blame a kid that chooses Wisconson to play OL they develope OL and the announcers did their best to promote Wiskey to OL recruits during the telecast yesterday
