Another michigan player…

Another michigan player blocked an osu player onto the side of his left leg. All the lineman wear braces to protect their knees.  Didn’t really see the leg itself but from what I saw it broke a little below the bottom of the brace. 
 

his mom apparently tweeted he’s already in surgery or had the surgery. 

He should have a full…

He should have a full recovery with the placement of a titanium rod and screws, assuming minimal soft tissue damage. Joints are probably ok.

3 possessions to ice the game. And Moore’s timid play calling generates only 1 total first down on a 4th and 1 that barely made it.  His scared attitude made its way to the players. This is why JH on the sideline is a killer for OSU and why Desmond said coaches earn their paycheck on Saturday.  Tall task next week but Go blue. 

Can anyone explain why we…

Can anyone explain why we never run play action?

That’s not it I don’t think.  The one Woodson was wearing was Jordan brand.

When the F is harbaugh going to learn to coach the players when not to try and block the punt? Vs msu.  In their own territory with 43 seconds left.  What. The. Fuck.

Was wrong about extending Harbaugh and couldn’t be happier to admit it. Go blue! If I could capture This feeling in a bottle…

I wasn’t crying. You were crying.  
 

Honestly, the speeches were all so good and it was such a heart warming and inspiring evening. Tom Flores had an amazing speech, too. The common themes were family, faith, and success does not occur in a vacuum. 
 

Woodson was fighting through tears his entire speech. The whole crowd stood up at the end.  God, I love being a Michigan Wolverine. Thank you, Charles for being a great human being and being a hero for me and my son. 
 

“Anybody who was at Fremont Ross, any player that played with me, please stand up. Stand up. Keep standing. Keep standing,” Woodson said. “Any Michigan Wolverine, stand up. Any Green Bay Packer, past, future, present, all the fans, stand up. Any Oakland Raiders fans, Las Vegas Raiders fans, stand up. Keep standing. Keep standing. To anybody — anybody — who was a fan of the way I played the game of football, you stand up, too. Anybody. My [college] coach Lloyd Carr told me a long time ago, there’s no one bigger than the team. No one bigger than the team. Keep standing! Don’t sit down! Stand up! We did this together! Together! Me and you! We were Mr. Ohio together. We were a Heisman Trophy winner together. We were national champions together. We were defensive rookies [of the year] together. We were defensive player of the year together. Super Bowl champions together. So when I say that when I go in, we go in, I mean that from the bottom of my heart.”

And OSU already up 7-0. It’s hard to imagine how big the gap between us and our main rival has become since Harbaugh became coach.  How does he not see he’s not the guy for this program? The loss today is simply indefensible. Bye bye harbaugh. That December press conference to announce his hiring, I had actual tears.

Incidence. But interesting thought. 

Stop with these types of…

Stop with these types of loser mentality threads.  Harbaugh loses 4 straight bowls and QB play still horrible after 4 years.  Loses to the 4 best teams on the schedule.  Really trying to fill Bo’s shoes it seems minus the Big ten titles.  This was not a great season. Kudos to the kids who worked hard but I am not proud of this team at all.

Difference in game is Shea…

Difference in game is Shea. He’s just bad. Alabama hits deep ball after deep ball because their QB can recognize the mismatches and actually capitalize on them. Shea barely ever even sees the deep open man and when he does is so shitty at the deep ball can never get the ball in a positive where the receiver can make a play.  Best of luck to him but happy he will be graduating. 

The mental blocks are…

The mental blocks are expected. They are the culture under harbaugh.  Day goes for it early on 4th vs psu and they get and and it creates the play to win mentality. While we stick with the play not to lose schtick. Harbaugh is the problem because we are at his ceiling.  Game has passed him by.  

Stupid. Stupid. stupid. 

Stupid. Stupid. stupid. 

Exactly. Started with that…

Exactly. Started with that bullshit extra point formation causing nordin to rush his kick. 

Turning point in this game…

Turning point in this game in the offsides on the punt.  Not the first time Harbaugh coached team has done that.  Inexcusable.  How is he so stupid to coach that way repeatedly? When has a punt block actually turned a game for us vs burning us repeatedly?

If harbaugh goes for TDs and…

If harbaugh goes for TDs and we score here it would be a 1 TD game. 

How’s that fucking Field…

How’s that fucking Field Goal helping us now harbaugh? Fucking joke. 

Even the Michigan blog web…

Even the Michigan blog web server buckles under pressure.  I’m clicking Read newest first and it doesn’t work.  

This narrative is so dumb…

This narrative is so dumb. The reason we aren’t winning is because our players make mental mistakes at the worst times. It’s a fluke if it’s on occasion. When it’s a pattern there’s a systematic flaw in the culture of the program.  I think it’s Harbaugh.  We haven’t won the game in 7 years and he plays conservative when he shouldn’t (FG and generally stupid RZ playcalling) and aggressive when he shouldn’t (aggression on punt block resulting in new life for offense on so many occasions in the harbaugh era).  We should be playing all in yet we play timid and it shows.

Harbaugh playcalling in RZ…

Harbaugh playcalling in RZ on special teams actually speaks otherwise 

Where was this earlier in…

Where was this earlier in the year? It’s not like they are doing anything super complex.  Throw it to our receivers and trust they will make plays.  And actually run it with the QB on RPOs.  Happy to see the progress but So frustrating that it came 3 games too late. 

He isn’t playing well and is…

He isn’t playing well and is very inconsistent on the base throwing plays.  

Then how did LSU pull it off…

Then how did LSU pull it off?  And OSU to some degree with a QB new to system who didn’t play the previous year much?

But why did he take so long…

But why did he take so long to listen to us arm chair QBs who shouted for this kind of obvious stuff weeks ago?!

I was telling my son the…

I was telling my son the same thing. Not being so predictable on 3rd down and mixing up the coverages really paid dividends tonight.  The first series really set the tone and surprised me.  Clearly the coaches don’t read the blog. If they did what group think said from game 1 we’d have maybe 1 loss. Lol. 

Please just push on the gas…

Please just push on the gas harder.  Give ND a butt hurt That will sting all the way until 2033. 

Harbaugh conservative play…

Harbaugh conservative play calling has resulted in a great road record vs top ten teams, right?   Being aggressive is sometimes the smarter move. Sometimes conservative equals not smart, and along with bone head play calling, has left a few points off the board. 

You like the way the half…

You like the way the half ended? You think it was a one off type series a brain farts?  Shut up.  We all like the Michigan is winning but after watching OSU and seeing the mental mistakes game after game that half the people on the board wouldn’t make as head coaches is infuriating.  Why the F not break a tendency on 2nd and 1 and throw downfield.  That’s literally how PSU beat us despite having zero offense the entire second half. 

The last 50 seconds is why…

The last 50 seconds is why Harbaugh is still not an elite college coach.  It’s habitual.  Mental blunders and poor end of half strategy Weekly that cost us points.  We need every fucking inch vs OSU and certainly cannot leave three points on the board by dumb play calling. 

I hope we can pass vs OSU…

I hope we can pass vs OSU though.   Afraid this game plan won’t cut it vs them.  And then we get a completion!!

Literally everyone thinks…

Literally everyone thinks this. Why the negs?  And why does harbaugh not learn from his 1-10 conservativeness and call something other than run up the middle when it barely ever fucking works. As recently as PSU we had direct evidence. And this is why he has such a shit record against good teams and thus far is a disappointment. 

I hope michigan will be then…

I hope michigan will be then, at least.  Very depressing watching OSU and the elite level coaching and talent they possess. They attack and utilize their weapons to the fullest.  I hate that the difference between us and OSU seems about the same as it was 4 years ago. Sigh. 

If Minnesota beats it is…

If Minnesota beats or is very competitive with OSU in a potential big ten championship, do we go after Fleck before some other premier program does?

Glaring absence of the deep…

Glaring absence of the deep ball and general proclivity to take any shots downfield also hurt us.  Penn State won the scoreboard because of the deep ball and Browns arrogance. 

It’s called conservative…

It’s called conservative coaching On the road. He coaches timidly and the players react accordingly. Running up the gut on 3rd and 3 a number of times to only get stuffed instead of going away from tendency and passing.  Harbaugh turtles on the road and then we show life when we get down and have to play more aggressive to win explains the 1-10 record or whatever it is.  Never mind that stupid FG attempt and punting on 4th and 1 inside psu territory. 

Another moral victory in…

Another moral victory in year 5. First half conservative coaching the difference once again.  Game 1 people were questioning why Ronnie bell was getting certain routes when he clearly doesn’t have the surest of hands. Feel for the kid.  But we had 3 chances to score before that and we failed. 2nd half better than I expected but not good enough for the win.  Very happy to see the players‘ show their heart. Lack for downfield passing really preventing this team from getting over the hump. 

Does harbaugh not see what…

Does harbaugh not see what happens when other teams go for the deep ball more than once?  He surely sees his own results when not. Back in the pit I go.

I so badly want to pulled out of BPONE.  I would love to look back with regret at my previous negativity.  Who could have predicted bubble screens would spark the offense?

You are a hypocritical, egomaniacal asshat.  I bet you were a hall monitor in high school, too.  Or maybe this is just bad attempt at sarcasm?

That field goal attempt removes all doubt. Harbaugh is a rich man’s Brady Hoke. 

Let’s go 2 minute offense. /s

We run it up the gut from the shotgun on 3rd and 3 and not lengthen the field and surprise no one.  Franklin goes for the jugular on 3rd And 3 and game over.  This is Jim Harbaugh’s ceiling.  Cue turtle boy’s weird need to patronize/moderate dark energy in 3..2..1.. when will it be time to start the coaching search?

Yes, I’m fucking stupid for…

Yes, I’m fucking stupid for continuing to believe in a coaching staff that is average at best. Also, this is a game thread that has a “fuck” meter. I’m so deep in the BPONE I probably should shut this game off, which I have every time Michigan plays a team with a pulse this year.
