And McNamara sucks balls as does the Michigan defense today.
McNamara should not have played in the 2nd half after taking the hit to the head. That he stayed in there is on the coaches and their horrific second half game plan on offense.

The defense won the game. Anytime you only give up 13 in a college game these days you have done your job.


Wellllll... la de frickin da

MSU and UM were both outplayed in the second half and fortunate to win their games. October 30 will be fun

MSU played horribly. That's why I don't bet. LOL.

No we didn't. Defense was very good and special teams was great. Offense was dominated on the line.

I give Michigan coaching, on offense, an "F" for yesterday's second half. I've seen that movie a couple times too many during the Harbaugh area.

The defense got the job done thankfully.

I just looked this up. According to one source, only Army, Navy and Air Force attempt fewer passes a game than Michigan.
I will keep saying it....that will result in losses against good teams.

Edit: Another source puts KSU behind Michigan too

What would be considered a successful year, Matt? If you go 10-2, lose to OSU and play in a NY bowl, is that good enough?
Ask me after Wisconsin.
There are challenges left on the schedule, but this team looks like they can play with (and beat) anyone on the schedule.

Total Yardage

PSU 297 -- Wisconsin 365

ND 248 -- Wisconsin 318

Michigan 364 -- Wisconsin 210 (including 50 yards versus the 3rd team defense)

Michigan's D looked solid, but Wisky did lose their first string QB on the first series of the second half

Have to credit the Michigan defense for that. That said, I am still not sold on the Wolverines. Hertz and Wisconsin had a lot of self inflicted errors in the first quarter. JJ McCarthy has awesome arm strength, but I still haven't seen any deep balls from McNamara. The proof in the pudding will be OSU, MSU, and PSU. I plan on at least 3 losses for Michigan. They will split against MSU/PDU, lose to Ohio State, and get upset by another team, maybe as soon as next week.

You put money on Michigan because you thought Mertz was hot garbage...

McNamara threw a 34 yard on the money TD.

Wisconsin's team looks to be hot garbage this year. Michigan struggled offensively against Rutgers.

Although much better than last year's team, so far, this looks to be a typical Harbaugh-era team.

I think Nebraska will be a better test for Michigan than Wisky. Their defense is exceptional, and Martinez, though flawed, is tough to defend. If Michigan wins in Lincoln under the lights, they have to be taken seriously.

Spartans continue to shock me. Their LB and corner play will be their downfall, however. And if they are to lose anybody on the OL, they'll have problems there. Still, I'm thrilled with where the program is headed under Mel, especially with a top 20 class coming in.
