Michigan vs. Northwestern - Game Thread - 12:00 PM - Fox
Friend of the blog Jeff Niemann and his graphic designer brother Brian developed this interactive graphic/app so you can track in-game stats. The press has had something like this for years that we use to pump out interesting data during and after games. I figured you folk might want to play with it. I think if you’re on a desktop you have to use that popout icon on the bottom-right.
Unfortunately they weren’t able to make this say “M 0 0 N” like we asked, but the request is in. Go Blue!

Dude. It’s less than 5 minutes and we’re out a lot of starters on the OL. Chill.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:18 PM ^
3rd and 17 anddddd Cade takes a check down. Okay lol.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:18 PM ^
Cade had all day to throw, why check down?
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:18 PM ^
Ugh--you don't need to jump right to the check-down against NU.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:18 PM ^
Rough series.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:18 PM ^
McNamara sack=shaky confidence. He truly doesn’t like contact.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:19 PM ^
Off to the usual slow start on offense. Defense looks good after that first play
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:19 PM ^
We got a first down and got away from the shadow of our end zone.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:19 PM ^
He had literally no pressure on him. Maybe at least TRY and let your receivers get open downfield before taking the check down? Lol Jesus.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:20 PM ^
That was clearly the play call. McCarthy would have been told to do the same thing.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:20 PM ^
He checked down so quickly with good protection. Seems like McNamara was shook after the sack
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:19 PM ^
come on? 3rd down and a weak screen pass. At least throw it down past the 1st down marker.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:19 PM ^
Hope the missing OL doesn't impact the game
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:20 PM ^
Why checkdown like that with no rush on you yet?!
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:20 PM ^
Cade seems so fucking scared back there, put the ball up
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:20 PM ^
Very well conceived safety blitz. Vestardis never saw it coming. Cade gotta throw that away.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:21 PM ^
yeah, I think the only way to defend that is to not swing the RB out of the backfield. Good play call at the right time for NW
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:20 PM ^
Kind of a meh start. Long game though.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:21 PM ^
The way this offense plays they will not match up well with MSU, PSU or OSU!
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:21 PM ^
I think Cade’s got to see the safety coming in a blitz that late up the A or B gap.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:23 PM ^
Punt return game has really hurt us on occasion this year.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:23 PM ^
Our D the bright spot. At some point would like to see 1st team D with JJ at the helm.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:26 PM ^
Never gonna happen. Harbaugh is to loyal.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:23 PM ^
Nice stop/tackle by Josh Ross
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:23 PM ^
Big hit Josh Ross.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:24 PM ^
Nice hit by Ross
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:24 PM ^
How about we at least field the punt this time.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:24 PM ^
injury, three plays, commercial, three plays commercial....sigh
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:25 PM ^
And they wonder why attendance is down.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:27 PM ^
That has to really suck if you’re at the game
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:24 PM ^
Love the effort on D. The crowd has shown up too.
It's a slow start, but not for lack of energy and effort.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:25 PM ^
Henning has to do better on those punts. Got away with not fielding that one, but he can run up and get that, rather than risk a ten yard bounce the wrong way.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:25 PM ^
Every game Michigan's DLINE gets held and the refs never call it!
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:25 PM ^
Flea flicker maybe? MSU does it weekly
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:25 PM ^
Henning does more pointing than returning.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:26 PM ^
I’m bored.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:26 PM ^
Maybe too cliche, but if Cade shows getting hit in the last drive affects how he plays on this one, when do we decide he's not ready for next week?
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:27 PM ^
So much for a big half time lead! I doubt JJ will get to play much in the M00N game.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:28 PM ^
Anybody know if anything is wrong with Gemon Green?
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:28 PM ^
Clifford playing for PSU against the Illini, but not passing or running. Probably not necessary in this game.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:28 PM ^
sick spin move by haskins.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:28 PM ^
Haskins looked like Lightning there.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:28 PM ^
Spin to win!
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:28 PM ^
Nice spin move by Haskins
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:28 PM ^
First hurdle, now spin move. Lightning and lightning!
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:29 PM ^
Trying to muck up the game flow
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:29 PM ^
Where was this Ref when the Huskers were subbing late?
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:29 PM ^
Not sure we've got THUNDER AND LIGHTNING.
More like THUNTNING AND LIGHTNDER
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:29 PM ^
Why throw into double coverage. Why.
October 23rd, 2021 at 12:29 PM ^
That was PI. Sanristil was obviously interfered with.
