Except there’s no way…

Except there’s no way Georgia passes on the de facto home playoff game and the Fiesta would never allow a 1pm (2pm? Can’t remember Arizona’s contrarian time rules) kickoff for a premiere game. 
 

We are all but locked into the 8pm ET game. 

While I agree with you, his…

While I agree with you, his production was very up and down with the competition. Outside of Michigan his YPC dropped significantly with increased skill level on defense. Dropping the OSU game with 25 yards on 4 carries is what kept him from getting to NYC. Tucker left him in the game against weak competition to rack up yards early in the season and that bolstered his resume.

The quality of chicken is way better than BK or McDonalds but the batter is subpar and the sauce is a spicy ketchup/mayonnaise mixture. Popeyes, KFC, and Chick fil A all have better overall chicken and sauce combinations. Only thing that made say the trip to Raising Cane’s wasn’t a wash was the Texas toast. 

Another full off season and…

Another full off season and season of film and field experience between now and then. Not that our win is discounted because of it, but Stroud is only going to get better barring an injury. He will better understand our coverages and looks. Plus the game is in CBus. We will need all the help we can get to stop them again, especially with Marvin Jr looking like another superstar WR.

See my comment above. That's where we were in 2018 and they have large TVs behind the bar. If you're looking for public but not insane, pool bar is your best bet. You'll probably run into some other M fans as well.

My wife and I went in 2018 and watching the OSU/PSU game at the pool bar with a bunch of PSU fans was one of the best non-Michigan football game watching experiences I've had. Not caring about the result made it a lot more fun, but the overall atmosphere was amazing. I would recommend checking out your resort pool bar for their closing time on NYE. When we were there it stayed open until 12 but with Covid protocols it might be earlier now. 

MSU's secondary is hot…

MSU's secondary is hot garbage, but on offense they fell into the trap that we have fallen into in the past against OSU. They tried to play the score-fast score-often game and didn't stick to what they know: moving the ball on the ground and hitting open passes as you draw in the secondary. It may have been a much closer game had they done that, but either way it is hard to beat a team that scores almost every possession, see: us vs OSU this year. 

There's one variable that no…

There's one variable that no one is including and it's something our DL has struggled to do until this year. DL is getting their hands up in the air when they're not getting home. If our LBs and DBs play tight in their zones on the interior of the field Stroud will struggle with tipped passes. Getting those hands up and tight zones forces him to wait longer on routes and lets our ends get home. PSU exploited this with holds on the outside and were able to get their guys 10-15 yards downfield on post routes. If refs call the holds early our defense will have a field day. No calls, we may be in pain if the offense doesn't keep up.

I saw it somewhere on the board and I have clue on how to verify it, but I remember someone commenting that Michigan has the option to reject a night game @PSU this year. Again, no idea how to verify that but a day game definitely plays in our favor @PSU, or anywhere.

Don’t you know...? If we don’t have RS Seniors with 20+ games of starting experience and former 5* recruits with current NFL draft prospects across our entire 3 deep, we are in dangerous water of going 3-9 next year and will have to start over from scratch with a new staff.

If we run power all game with Shea rollouts to crossing routes sprinkled in, I don’t see us losing to anyone but OSU. 

I agree. I’m guessing one is…

I agree. I’m guessing one is at the 3:16 mark of the 1st quarter. If you watch, Runyan picks up his guy. What happens in the play is that a late rusher comes from the middle of the line to the exterior and around Runyan, who is already blocking someone. At the same time, Bredeson (who’s guy gets the sack) watches his guy disengage, then engages with Runyan. I blame Bredeson for not going to the outside of Runyan to pick up his man. Shea gets sacked, and should have seen him coming. Not only that, Shea went full Devin Gardner and ran us out of field goal range. 

We’ve gotten killed the last week after taking all of the NE

and most of OH.

2018 vs Villanova

Because National Champions yo

Personally, I’m more of

Kaczynski fan. But to each their own.

All of the other recruiting sites

disagree with you. Not to knock your opinion but Wilson is ranked way higher and has a better offer sheet.

IM Leagues

Reffed IM football, soccer, basketball, and hockey in college.



Most people were pretty respectful. Frat guys were the worst. Overall if you own up to messing up a call everyone stays relaxed (as long as it’s not more than once a game).

I’d rather have him than Mario or Rod

Those clowns know almost nothing about the game. Mario appears to root for the opposing team every broadcast. Rod is too busy chasing Asian baseball players down with his bat to even figure out what the count or inning it is. Dickerson with Gibson is my dream broadcast.

No

/thread

He’s LTIR

So while he’s still getting paid, he doesn’t count against our cap.

Was going to neg you

but I decided to read the whole thing. You almost got me.

He’s still a mid to late 2nd rounder

in 95% of mock drafts. It’s more likely he stays than goes, especially when he will have even more talent around him to take the load off. If he gets less touches but better looks his draft position is going to skyrocket.

You serious Clark?

Out of all the ridiculous comments on this blog, this is top 5.

Second half was “close”

Which was nice since we had almost a 30 point lead at the half. Lol

Autobenched?

Autobenched?

Is Matthews hurt?

I haven’t seen him out there yet, unless I’m blind and missed him.

I think his point is that no one else is wearing 98

Not that you can’t wear 3 at any other position. We have 3 guys wearing #3 right now.

I trust a guy like Chauncey or Kobe over straight

analytics. Kobe said in an interview, “Stats give you a good perspective of a players performance. But you still need to know why that player is putting up those stats. Is his kid sick? Did a family member pass away? Is there some sort of home life issue? Just knowing stats doesn’t tell you why a guy is or isn’t a good fit somewhere.”

Hard to turn down $1000s

for a lot of these guys. Bridges didn’t grow up poor but he definitely didnt have it easy either. Why go play for $0 when you can make a quick buck before hopping to the NBA?

What the hell is

Nessler’s problem? He’s rooting against us every chance he gets. Wagner sticks the ball and comes off the floor smiling and he says “He can only smile to himself after that half.” Does he not realize that Wagner has done this multiple games where the first half he gets no looks and lights it up in the 2nd half? Do your research dude.

Is there any sort of method used here?

Or is it just you being a fan? And if it’s you being a fan, why did this warrant it’s own thread instead of just posting in one of the other 6 bracketology threads we’ve had in the last 24 hours?

I don’t see how most of those are offensive either.

I really don’t see how Indians is offensive. It’s not derogatory in any way. It’s more of an honor than anything. Canucks is a derogatory name for Canadians by most Americans. Celtics is no different than Indians and I see no one calling for the change of that name. I’m merely pointing out the overly PC culture of changing anything that white people find offensive FOR other cultures.

Should we change every team name named after anything?

I support the change of the logo but changing a team name from something non-offensive to something else is stupid. But as you wish we no longer have the Celtics, Kings, Patriots, Saints, Titans, Warriors, Packers, Brewers, Pirates, Mariners, Devils, Senators, Flyers, or Canucks as these are all offensive. It’s totally offensive to name your team after any sort of person or people’s.

Did you forget a sarcasm tag?

Or are you actually this dense?

everyone’s love for the redshirt. In the current climate very few guys stay for 5 years. If they can play and help, even for one game we need to play them, see: Josh Metellus.

That 2011 class and 2012

That 2011 class and 2012 class are once in a lifetime. You got a pissed off under the radar Ohioan and a lot of affluent middle/upper class kids to come to Michigan at the same time. 2 kids of former NBA players, a sharpshooting Canadian. To repeat that is almost impossible. We'll never get high 4* or 5* recruits because we won't offer them extras off the record. I'm ok with it. We do very well even without that and that's ok with most of us.

He's talking about Stanford 2010. Our OL was definitely hyped. It's been hyped since 2012.

It was a botched call to begin with. If you look at Smith's trajectory it was 100% a down block that shouldn't be called on your own goal line. At the 5 maybe but not on the 1 yard line.
