I'd love to see some formations that put them both in the backfield at the same time ala Clarence Williams and Chris Howard. Play action fake to Corum, Donovan runs a wheel route and JJ rolls to his side...

The same Spartan fans who were outraged at Devin Bush scuffing their ugly logo at midfield are now making excuses for assault with a deadly weapon. Worst fan base ever.

The biggest issue with this team is the lack of a point guard.

Remember the early Beilein team of Novak and Douglass? They weren’t the most heralded recruits. But they worked their asses off and brought Michigan basketball back to the tourney. Their success led to better recruiting and even more success. I hope this year’s football team is remembered the same way. 

Considering Underwood’s…

Considering Underwood’s history, Illinois will probably have to vacate this season anyway.

Does this include Metellus covering a super fast slot ninja?

Can I pick one from an upcoming movie?  If so, I'd go with the GT40 from Ford v Ferrari, which will be out November 15.  The book was fantastic, I hope the movie delivers.

It looks nice, but there is something about Chevy's designs that look dated quickly.  I think there are too many angles and too much going on.  The last few generations of Corvettes and Camaros end up looking very dated.  They just don't have a timeless look.  However, there isn't a car that delivers more performance per dollar.

All that said, the biggest issue for me is the lack of a third pedal.  I would get tired of kicking the floor with my left leg all the time.  All true sports cars should offer a manual, end of story.

I really wish they would offer a manual on the Charger.  It seems like it would be easy to bring it over from the Challenger.

GT350 hands down.  I drove a 2016 GT350 as my daily driver (including a baby seat), but sold it when I moved back to Chicago.  I really didn't want to deal with 2 cars in addition to my race car, so I swapped it for a Focus RS.  The RS is no where near what the 350 was, but it's stick and I can drive it in the snow and beat it up on the Chicago streets.

Yes, the challenger is faster in a straight line and the ZL1 is faster overall.  But the engine in the GT350 is amazing and pushes it over the top.  Just as you hit 6k and think you should be shifting, the engine is just starting to scream.  I've had a lot of fun cars: Viper RT/10 and GTS, 911, Supra Turbo, E36 and E90 M3, Grand Cherokee SRT (tow vehicle), etc... and none of them were as much fun or as exciting as the GT350.  Also, the challenger platform is really limited by tire width and the camaro platform provides less visibility than a tank.

It would be interesting to see this compared to usage, as most of these metrics decrease as usage goes up.  Due to our defense and running game, we haven't relied heavily on Shea throwing and we haven't put him in many bad situations.  He's definitely having a good season, but it's a stretch to call it the best season in 50 years.

Oh, I didn't realize that "unnamed witnesses" speaking to a biased newspaper had given the investigation their seal of approval.  I apologize for having questioned this.

 

 

What knowledge do you have…

What knowledge do you have to state that "the investigation was incredibly thorough"?  Nothing has been disclosed.  The fact that OSU fans are already lauding the process, the details of which haven't been disclosed, is indicative of what this is all about for OSU fans.  If you're going to come on here and call out our bias, take a moment to consider your own.

Very nice.  The artist did a good job of taking the Michigan helmet design and adapting it to a Sprint style design.

 

I raced motorcycles for a while and had a custom helmet painted, but I stuck with the traditional Michigan helmet design.

I'm having a new spec miata built for SCCA.  I'm thinking of a Michigan helmet theme, similar to below.  What do you think?

Are you forgetting injuries

Are you forgetting injuries to the bball team? Caris? Spike? I'm not defending the play last night, but you're using one excuse for the football team while ignoring the fact that the bball team faced a similar issue.

It's tracking near the warm Gulf Stream and will encounter very little shear over the next few days so I wouldn't bet on it weakening. Most models show it weakening only after landfall. Sandy rode the warm gulf right up the coast.
