What I learned

1) Our defense is as pitiful as last year. Never mind the #'s . Rudolph's looonnggg TD pass. The long reception at the end of the first half to put ND at the 3. Piss poor defense. 2 of the 3 picks were gifts from garbage QB's. Our D line was getting blown off the ball in the 2nd half and we had a hard time making the first tackle on Allen.

2) Our special teams is worse than last year. Gibbons is dreadful as a kicker. Hagerup had a very bad day. Stonum has to learn when/not to return the ball. And every time we return a punt I have a nightmare that it's going to bounce off someone and just scream out "KEEP AWAY"

3) We make too many stupid penalties. Grady, please go back to basketball. The late hit on the kick off gave them a short(er) field. The last one on Floyd. Come on guys, play smart.

4) It's been 3 years and that damn bubble screen still doesn't work. I know they want to stretch the field, but that play always seems to be half an inch from being a backward lateral/fumble every time.

5) We need a RB to step up because Denard can't keep getting better every week,can he?

6) R Rod has to show some balls and play to win these games and not to lose them(MSU last Year) Gibbons had no business trying that 2nd FG. The long pass on 3rd down to Roundtree(yes, he should have caught it) Play call like you're going to use all 4 downs and run the ball to get first downs and keep the clock moving.

7)If Denard played for ND, that would have been the greatest performance in the history of college football.

My take

It's not all Brandon and Coleman's fault. And Smith and Gee's fault at OSU. If they keep OSU and Mich together and PSU and Neb together, I can totally understand the other 8 schools wanting no part of getting stuck in the same division with Mich/OSU. However most of the bile seems to be that Brandon has to do what he feels is best for us, not the other 11 schools. And that seems to be screwing this rivalry for $$$, not saving it. I'm in favor of different divisions, last game of season, rematch bedamned. For all those change is good/necesarry proponents. Enjoy that Michigan/ Indiana game November 28 2015. It's going to be an awful cold day for a meaningless football game.

For all the "for the Rose Bowl" proponents

You want to insure OSU/Mich is for the Rose Bowl? The Rose Bowl hasn't been the "Rose Bowl" for a while now. Mich vs. Texas was a great game, but it didn't feel like a "Rose Bowl" used to. The BCS killed it. Just watch when we beat OSU in 2014 to go to the Rose Bowl and get to play.....TCU. Oh, the excitement.  I really don't care if they are in the same or different divisions, I just want the game to be where it is now. If we have to play back to back weeks, so what.
