Why they don't go after Bama…

Why they don't go after Bama?  Because this would look stupid:

2008 - Florida

2009 - Vacated

2010 - Auburn

2011 - Vacated

2012 - Vacated

2013 - Florida State

2014 - Ohio State

2015 - Vacated

2016 - Clemson

2017 - Vacated

And even worse if they looked at the SEC.

Had my tickets sold and reservations cancelled within an hour of the end of the game

If Maryland would have…

If Maryland would have beaten OSU last week and we lost today there'd be a lot less bitching and we'd be Big Ten East Champs.  It didn't work out.  It's disappointing.  If you think you're disappointed I can think of a lot of young men who busted their asses this year hoping for better.  Thanks to the players for a good year!!!

Ouch!!!!   I wasn't sure we…

Ouch!!!!   I wasn't sure we'd win but I didn't expect a curb stomping.  While I'm generally a "never give up" kind of guy.......this is embarrassing.  I just put 8 tix for Indy back up on Stubhub.  This isn't our best showing and as a fan I'm pissed but all I've got invested is gear and season tickets.  More pissed that the coaches have let these kids down with their stubbornness and arrogance.

1) 8-10 times a day (I'm retired)

2) 6-7 getting worse as Saturday approaches

3) usually go to a bar with my wife and kids but wifey is freaking out.  She's an 11 to question #2 so we're staying in with friends and family

4) not make or break.  It'll be a disappointing loss if it happens but wife has always wanted to go to the Rose Bowl.  They've been great this year.

5) don't care how much they score. As long as we score more. 30-24 good guys!!

A number of the Hotels also have parking and provide a $3 round trip shuttle.  I've used the shuttle from the Holiday Inn (they have a restaurant there).  I still prefer taking an Uber from BWW.

I'm not sure if the courses (UofM Golf and AAGO) are open tomorrow.  If you come up Main you can choose between golf courses and Pioneer.  Pioneer only pre sells a fraction of their spots on ParknParty.  There are no charcoal grills allowed at the golf course but they are allowd at Pioneer.  To check on parking updates at AAGO call 734-663-4044 x6.  Last week when there wasn't much parking near the stadium we sat at BWW, watched the early games and took Uber back and forth (not the same experience but $5 pitchers).

Kid embarrassed himself in the end but NFL teams don't give a damn.  Some of these prima donnas have no respect for authority and feel entitled.  Whether you like rules or not you don't disrespect any coaches let alone your head coach.  If one of my kids ever pulled that attitude with any adult I'd rip them a new one.  That was one of the differences between the pros and college kids.  At the college level it used to just be "yes coach" and "no coach".

If we offered and he…

If we offered and he committed, there must be something there that the coaches wanted.  From that perspective this might be a loss if he does in fact flip.  If this happens we hopefully pick up another good recruit.  If he flips best of luck to him.  Not all kids want to leave home.  I hope we don't talk about him the way OSU fans are talking about Harrison.

Sure they can.  They can lose to UMass this week and drop a spot and then lose to Bama and move up a spot for a good loss......SEC.  /s

I don't disagree but if your…

I don't disagree but if your goal is to get the top 4 teams in the playoffs you have a greater chance of achieving that goal.  More often than not, #5 (and maybe #6) will always try to argue that they should be among the top 4.  It's highly unlikely that in trying to end the season with the top 4 teams that #9 will have an viable argument that they should have been there.  I agree that they can argue that they were number 8 or 7 but I don't think it's as egregious.  

Bottom line is that this thing is broken right now and expanding to 8 might work and expanding any further just isn't doable.

I like scenario 5 with the…

I like scenario 5 with the provision that no conference can have more than two teams in.  No Bye weeks and truth be told, only 8 teams have an extra game to play but they're playing for something meaningful.   Conference championships mean something and rankings mean something.  I would also add that all conferences have to play 9 conference games.

Surprised.  It's not much but we gained 25 points in the coaches poll to Georgia's 22.  We actually gained ground.

I also created my own stats by taking out the stuff I didn't like, taking the good stuff, adding 97 and multiplying by 4:

1. Michigan

2. Michigan

3. Michigan

4. Michigan

5. Michigan

6. Michigan

7. Michigan

8. Michigan

9. Michigan

10. Michigan

 

I think Klatt and Communist Football might be better at this than I am.

Forget the spread!!!  Get up 21 fast and early.  Don't call plays that are going to get Patterson Booked!  Get to our 2 and 3 deep early and with meaningful reps.  I'm still inclined to save Milton if possible.  Saving Milton's RS is even more important for Milton if yesterday's rumors about Patterson staying are true.

CFP Committe continues to…

CFP Committe continues to rank teams (using the Klatt logic).  Conference playoffs 12/1.   Top 8 teams playoff in a quarter final 12/15: 1 vs 8, 2 vs 7, 3 vs 6 and 4 vs 5.   Top 8 teams are conference champs and top 3 at large (max. 2 per conference - if season ended today LSU would be passed over for WVU).  Higher ranking team gets home field.  Winners face off in CFP Bowls (semi final),  highest ranking winner playing the lowest and 2 and 3 facing off. Winners move onto playoff.   4 losing quarter final teams get NY CFP selection bowls against 9-12.

Peters, Black and the depth chart.  Save Milton.  He can still play in 3 games.....we could have as many as 6 games to play (realistically 4-5).  Give Peters as many reps as possible.

My wife who is a little more fanatic than I am wants the Rose Bowl so badly.  She's been a fan since she was a little kid, her family has had season tickets since she was 8 and she is alumni.  After 97, her father always said that when Michigan went back to the Rose Bowl they were going.  He passed away almost 6 years ago but I'm going to keep his promise.  I would love to make the CFP though!!!!

I'm a season ticket holder…

I'm a season ticket holder as are many of the fans around me.  We were actually saying the opposite yesterday.  This was one of the best showings from the students this year from beginning to end.  I'll admit I've been disappointed a couple of times this year but not yesterday.  The other issue was that it was a blowout and with about 5 minutes to go some fans made their way out.  We have never left a game early in part because we take a pic of the final scoreboard every week.

Had a chance to chat with a few PSU fans and they were great.   My experience at home games and on the road is that I can have a decent conversation with most fan bases, all but two.  The PSU fans that were sitting in front of me have no use for Franklin......especially after the out of bounds kick off call.

27-24 Michigan making it the first time since 1997 that Michigan beats a ranked opponent 3 weeks in a row.

This is odd because as of yesterday it appeared to be that 62% of the consensus was PSU and the points.  I would have expected the line to move the other way to balance it out.  This is why I stay away from betting.
