You know, as big a fan of cold as he professes to be, I have to wonder just how many of his extremities are now without feeling since he does enjoy cheering emphatically for Michigan regardless of the conditions. I am sure he will self-report later, but if he glazes over things like "lack of feeling" and the like, I suppose we won't be al that shocked.

It's a recipe for disaster. No starting QB, road game, senior day. Ugh. After seeing O'Korn today, my confidence level for next week significantly dropped. Thankfully we have a great defense and a pretty good running game.

tough to beat decent opponents with 1 dimensional O (and osu is better than decent).  hopefully okorn and his guys have a great week of practice and find some confidence and rhythm in the pass game - or speight returns to practice, rediscovers his midseason groove, and rolls into cbus healthy enough to really compete.

should be an interesting week, obviously capped by a truly massive game.  m has the ability to win D and ST phases with great execution and thatd play a big part in beating osu - but as well as the D and ST can play, itll be a chore (though not impossible) to leave cbus as victors without being able to move the chains and threaten D via the pass.

QB situation aside, the fellas will be jacked up and ready to play!  and fans should see a heck of a game

Yeah, its unreal. People saying the team gave up and quit on the season, that the defense is terrible (despite really giving up only 1 non-ref aided sustained drive), we're going to get killed at OSU (as if they somehow looked good today or consistenly good all season?)....amazing.

easiest way to minimize the discrepency in qb play. osu has shat the bed in bad weather under meyer. i'll take our rush blocking vs. their d line over the matchup on the other side.

yep, guarantee most of the players loved it.  some of the more memorable games i ever played were mud or snow bowls.  only in small doses though - dont know many guys whod prefer to play most games in shitty conditions or poor weather but its awesome every once in a while

I'm glad I stayed out of the game thread today. Win or lose next weekend, this has been a great season. Loved seeing us run the ball down there throats and keep our composure. I'm confident O'korn gives us a good enough chance to win against OSU.

This is what great teams do. Come back in the second half and dominate. They just absolutely dominated Indiana in the second half. This is truly a gritty performance with a backup QB and in a bad weather. I really liked the team today. A good old B1G Football game. Drevno earned his keep today. The OL dominated the second half. Hope they bring it the whole game next week. Indiana Defense was no slouch. So, that running performance was unbelieveable.
