What do you miss (UM football related)

Submitted by Brandon Swatson on
What's something you miss from past Michigan football seasons? From the Carr days, I'll go with the good ole bubble screen. Also shoutout to the Borges tunnel screen, the only play that worked everytime. Edit: oh god what have I done

It’s obviously simple: Beating the Bucknuts. The pain and anger of losing to them nonstop has truly been one he the biggest disappointments of my adult life.

It have never seen him in person but I believe he was the drum major in the early to mid-70s who did back flips from midfield to the end zone (instead of the back bend).  I believe he was a gymnast and must have had some special way to keep his headgear in place during the flips.  I saw old films of this once on the scoreboard prior to a game. I thought it was very impressive and have never seen any school do anything this amazing since.  If anyone has a film clip of this, would love to see it posted.

Weren't so accesible. Sure there were columns in the paper the next day but it stinks that we were a better program in a time before social media and sports radio on a national scale. We weren't Alabama but from about 1995-2004, what an era of 10 years that would've been to have in the era of social media.

I miss Bob Ufer broadcasting the games.

I miss watching games at Michigan Stadium and not having to watch Mr. Redhat to see if we were ever going to get back to playing football.

I miss the lack of video (except for live action or replays).

I miss the lack of (non UM Marching Band) music.

I miss beating the shit out of almost everyone on a regular basis.

The last time I went was 2007 and those USC clowns were asking what kind of car Pete Carroll drives??? I didn’t say anything but of course they still shouted Lloyd Carr. Ugh I hate those fucks
