You know, ole Richard looked like he almost had a smirk on his face going through the whole spiel knowing the cameras were going to catch what was coming.

December 27th, 2017 at 8:41 PM ^
now SHE could bring the thump.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:44 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 8:41 PM ^
that is the rich rod tackling i remember.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:42 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 8:42 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 8:42 PM ^
Yep, that looks like a RichRod-coached defense.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:43 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 8:49 PM ^
True - "coached" may be overstating it.

67-65 is not considered a classic by M fans, FYI
December 27th, 2017 at 8:47 PM ^
Damn, Arizona's uniforms get uglier every year. Why? How?
December 27th, 2017 at 8:51 PM ^
...is that they've adopted the OSU big-number approach for a squad of slot ninjas, and the numerals are now bigger than the players.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:47 PM ^
but yet here we are doing so
December 27th, 2017 at 8:48 PM ^
just root against RichRod. it is a little easier.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:50 PM ^
you have made things so much easier indeed.
I knew RichRod wasn't going to work out about halfway through 2008 season

Purdue's uniforms for this game are the bomb. It's hard to fuck up black and gold, but these are exceptionally sweet.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:54 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 8:50 PM ^
It's not just RR's defense that left me with PTSD.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:51 PM ^
it is PTS.
no D.....
December 27th, 2017 at 8:53 PM ^
was all the slot ninjas he recruited and lack of OL, sigh
December 27th, 2017 at 8:58 PM ^
2017 Michigan Offensive S&P+ Ranking: No. 74 (out of 130)
2017 Arizona Offensive S&P+ Ranking: No. 9
If RR's offense gives you PTSD, what does Michigan's offense give you?
December 27th, 2017 at 9:03 PM ^
a shitty defense that doesn't get enough rest time, that's what it gives you.
Our offense under RR was crappy against real teams.
December 27th, 2017 at 9:09 PM ^
What did Michigan's offense this year give you?
(Oh, and we were losing 10-7 for most of the third quarter against this Purdue team.)
December 27th, 2017 at 9:22 PM ^
our QB situation was the problem this year, not the offense, a halfway competent QB and we probably go 12-1 and in the playoffs.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:53 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 8:54 PM ^
and undersized OL. i know he wants mobility but i think gary-hurst-winovich would destroy Arizona's OL
December 27th, 2017 at 9:04 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 8:53 PM ^
call the hook and lateral at some point tonight,Rich Rod will never see it coming.
December 27th, 2017 at 8:55 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 8:56 PM ^
The average commercial break has been longer than the average drive.
December 27th, 2017 at 9:01 PM ^
blown coverage. vein guy needs to coach more instead of screaming.
December 27th, 2017 at 9:00 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 9:01 PM ^
I miss the days of "Worst Waldo." Of course, you have to have someone who can hit that wide open guy.
December 27th, 2017 at 9:06 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 9:10 PM ^
After the way our season went, I thought the strategy was to toss it 10 yards out of the endzone in the hopes the defense would start to think the field was larger than it really is.
December 27th, 2017 at 9:13 PM ^
December 27th, 2017 at 9:15 PM ^
I didn't realize the college rule was different, the "second act" part makes a big difference and is a sensible rule compared to the NFL's absurd rule that penalizes athletic plays.
December 27th, 2017 at 9:21 PM ^
for Brohm to go for it on 4th down around his own 30
