I was about half way through a full-fledged
preview for tomorrow's game when it hit me. After
a good couple hours of going through the matchups and trying to discover an edge that Michigan could maybe somehow exploit to gain momentum and put tOSU on their heels, I had a moment of clarity. There ...

of any kind that would be able to track
the exact amount of time it's football players spent doing team activities that would count as "countable" hours for the 2008 season...Rodriguez's first at Michigan. Now it should be noted(!) that ...

Well, as of right now, it's a little
bit up in the air. It just so happens
that my real life has been rather busier than usual lately, so it's been tough to devote the time to my dear blog...but I will make all the effort I can to post as much original content as I can this week. Starting us off ...

Disclaimer: Another tough loss this week...but at least
this time it was to a ranked opponent whom
I had fully expected to lose to well before this season began. And I'd love nothing more than to dive head-first into a long and drawn out post totally scrutinizing every aspect of this game, but ...

Literally. Not only do I have a certain

your add in the fact that this kid is not only a section leader for the tenors as a member of the Michigan Marching Band, but a damn fine rock drummer to boot, it makes me so very happy to know he's ...

The title of this post is a quote
from George Herbert (1593-1633) A lot of goings on
these days with the Michigan program. I can safely say that this sudden turn of events these last two weeks (losing to Illinois and Purdue in basically must-win situations), has really taken any wind wind that ...

Another week, another tough loss for the Wolverines.
This is getting to be like a broken record
around here. For one half of the game, Michigan looked calm, poised and confident. They racked up 24 points on a decent Purdue team. The defense, after letting Purdue on the board early, stiffened up ...
