Today's game, as told through Bruce Willis movie posters

This was originally a response to an earlier post, but I figured it would be fun to make it a post and expand a bit.

As told through Bruce Willis movie posters.

Game started out with the team looking:

and the team taking an early 7-0 lead with some nice stops.  Then Iowa went on a run, scoring 21 straight points before the half as the offense imploded somewhat and everyone had a

Then Denard was hurt in the 3rd quarter and everyone was

Tate came in, but everything seemed a little off initially as him lining up under center felt like

Iowa then scored again to take a 21-point lead and the scene was pure

But then Tate led the team on a string of impressive scoring drives, and they refused to

UM pulled within and it looked like the game would be a classic in which the

Now for the next two weeks, there will be rumblings that perhaps Tate should be the starter over Denard, that an issue exists.  I expect the airwaves to be held for the next two weeks as people wonder about this team and if a collapse is going to follow, though I ultimately expect this team play like they are and ultimately emerge as a

Today sucked...

Came back from a party and didn't get laid (yes, I'm in college, getting laid is the norm...)

Michigan lost

4 midterms this wee

NROTC is a bitch

I have to get a new job because cleaning isn't paying enough

Aw fuck it, UM losing was the worst part of the week

But this sir, just made my day.  I just wish I could +1 you.

It was bad enough to see The Siege of Michigan football thanks to the Pulp Fiction spun by Michael Rosenberg and the other 12 Monkeys in the media.
