Check in if you’re already over it

Bluetotheday, party of one

I'm over the way this season ended and the complete breakdown yesterday. Going to support the Maize and Blue regardless of the outcome.

I'm over it

I’ve steeled my spine and will attack the future with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind.

Go Blue! Fuck Notre Dame!

I love rooting for my school but except for the thrills I get w wins and great stories ( like the orange hair money cannon) it doesn't affect my life.

Ditto.

I’m pretty much over it. Tomorrow will suck when I have to go back to work and some idiot will say something about the game even though they probably didn’t even watch it. I have faith Harbaugh will get this turned around his track record says he knows how to coach.

I’m a very bitter person. I can still complain about a loss from 25 years ago. But I’ll deal and go on with my life. The only football I’m looking forward to is seeing Tom Brady win another Super Bowl.

My HS alma mater came into the 2018 calendar year with a 30-game basketball losing streak. As of about 15 minutes ago, it is over!

We've also lost 35 consecutive football games. That ends this year too!

Optimism!

Live for the future with optimism!

Nope. I am able to go on about my life and I know Harbaugh is the right man for the job, but I think there are legit concerns about this team for next season and the bowl game did not help in that regard.

 

Significant changes will need to be made next year to get over the 8-4/9-3 hump next year.

Over. Football as a whole has become a much smaller part of my existence in recent years and I thought that would increase my passion for UM football as it is essentially all I follow now...oddly the opposite seems to have happened.  Just a fickle fan--maybe. Defense mechanism--maybe.

...and accounted for?

Almost all of Harbaugh's recruits are Freshmen or Sophomores and quite a few of them are playing very well. The defensive side of the ball has been stellar and should be as good as 2017 if not better next year. Hoke didn't leave the cupboard bare but offensive talent was definitely lacking. Jim didn't have much to work with at QB and made a great move to get Rudock for 2015. Speight played ok for 2 years but injuries ended both of his seasons prematurely. O'Korn tried but was bad and Peters either still isn't ready or isn't what the recruiting experts thought he was. Patterson could be the answer and McCaffrey is still an unknown entity. We don't know if our QB play and lack of performance from the running backs was all on the o-line or not, but we certainly had weaknesses there. Harbaugh has recruited well and the talent will continue to get better with each class we add. A significant amount of turnover in the assistant coaches has also added to the problems and we need some stability there. I've been a fan all my life and have had season tickets for 41 years and I'm not going anywhere. I get more upset than I probably should and make comments I later regret, but I'm still a true blue Michigan fan. Go Blue

Over it.  Would have been nice but makes zero difference for 2018.  Silver lining is that perhaps it helps effect change on offensive coaching sooner.

Ya I mean I’m over it, my entire life watching Michigan football since I can remember (1999 on) has almost always felt like high expectations that weren’t met in the end (although the VT bowl game Year was super fun for me). Can’t see the team doing much better than 9-3 next year but it is what it is!

II had a jabroni ask me when Harbaugh's job would  in jeopardy.  He'd been listening to talk radio and holy shit how dumb are people.  He doesn't know much about college football,  but Harbaugh's been here three years and has two ten win seasons.  Jabroni didn't seem to know that.  Does no one mention this on talk radio? 

Yes third in the division.  That's what happens when you finish #12 and have two teams in the top 10 in front of you, and again when you finish #10 and have the same.  Is #12 and #10 pretty good in years one and two? Yes it is.  This year sucked, it's the floor. 

We were top 5 in S & P Harbaugh's first two years. This year was hopefully just a blip all round (on field and with recruiting).

Sometimes coaches have down years. Look at Meyer in his final year with Florida. Dantonio last year. This was probably Harbaugh's and he'll bounce back and bring in a lot of new staff members.

it's fine if we hear shit fro. fans of other programs but let's stop talking shit here. We all love the program and are disappointed but talking negative does nothing. let's move on and look forward to next year.

If Jim Bob Cooter isn’t retained by the Lions, what’s everyone’s thoughts about him being the new O coordinator? Thoughts?

Cried a river, built a bridge, and got over it.

Looking for solid recoveries for all the injured.

I’m over it. Not gonna do me much good to dwell on it. Yesterday though, I was bummed until bedtime. Just looking forward to how the team responds top to bottom. I hope they’re ready for the domers come September.

Go Blue!!

If you can accept 4-5 losses every season then yes I’m over it. Damn it I thought Harbaugh was the messiah.......that’s why it hurts so bad....with Hoke it was not that surprising. Can’t we have nice things? Go Blue 2018

Our struggles over the last 15 years have made me numb to all of this. Am I disappointed we're not further along in year 3? Sure, but we were extremely young and I think we'll look back on this year as a minor blip. Jim Harbaugh is still the only person I want coaching Michigan.

went like the season. High hopes early to falling apart later. I expected us to beat ourselves on offense......again like most of the year.

I was over it before the game ended...not happy about it, but que sera  , sera

Go Blue!

Over it. Go Blue!

Count me in... the difference between 9-4 and 8-5? As Brian says, ‘whatever,’ they both suck. However, with respect to the 2018 season, my glass-half-full self asks these 3 questions: 1) what bowl outcome will ensure a legitimate QB competition (without an incumbent to unseed)? 2) what bowl outcome will most likely motivate the necessary offensive staff changes? 3) what bowl outcome will result in highly motivated offseason workouts? Yes, this loss will result in a long, unpleasant offseason filled with self doubt and criticism. Channeled appropriately however, one could argue that this was the best outcome for the 2018 season, and beyond.

I’m over it. It is what it is, this season fucking sucked, time to move on with life. I’m with Brian, maybe we’ll be better next year, maybe not, I’ll watch and cheer my ass off either way. Still, would’ve liked it if he put a little more effort into his column today. Just because Drevno and Pep mailed it in doesn’t mean he should. Go blue!

We got the coach! We got the kids! Go Blue 2018!
