Assumption correct.

Throwing Joe Bauserman under the bus and throwing Denard Robinson under the bus are two different things, but ok

Iowa 27-21

Anyone watch the Iowa/Minnesota game? I saw them play PSU and Louisiana Monroe and they looked pretty bad in both games.


Hopefully Kovacs is back to help stop Coker.

They just lost to Minnesota, the Gophers are HORRIBLE. Michigan isnt like a top 10 powerhouse team, but theyre playing very well this season, easily playing better than Iowa

Michigan 31
Iowa 14

The thing that bothers me the most is the fact that they showed up flat again. This has happend all year. they don't start playing till the second half especially on the road. for Michigan to show up and look like they do not care in the first half is all on the coaching staff IMO. Did it against MSU, ND, NW, and Purdue. Get the kids ready to play from the kickoff and This is a completely different team. Looks like they wait to see what the other team is going to do on the first drive and they always score. The defense then makes adjustments and looks fine the rest of the game. But do they not watch any film? If they play hard the rest of the way out they will have a shot at saving the season in THE GAME, if not the season is going to end like the last 2 did.

I agree with your last statement. Denard is so explosive, why not use him like UM did last season?

He hasn't been this year, even when they do give him the chance. He pussyfoots at the line waiting for a hole to open. Last year he would slide through the smallest crease and take off.

Also, the B1G is just awful this year.

It was just funny that everyone was so certain that Iowa would lose just because they lost to Minnesota and felt the need to point that out to me (as if me picking Iowa was crazy). I was pointing that out, not the fact that you predicted the game wrong.

Agreed, especially if Ohio State makes the B1G title game.

Yeah, usually doing that isn't smart. But Minnesota? Fuck, how do you lose to Minnesota? It was enough to make me think Michigan would win easily. They really haven't been impressive.

I was wrong, but it makes no damn sense.

DR threw 37 times today. 37! Mostly from the pocket. That's bad offensive play calling right there.

truth. There is no way of defending what a fraud these teams are this year.

I'm guessing that Kirk Ferentz will now win B1G COY because of this game.

How he got them ready to play against Michigan after such a tough loss is what legends do. Great coaching job keeping them focused.

What about app state?

Stupid argument.

Michigan played like shit today, and still had a chance at the end of the game. That's encouraging. Hopefully we rebound next week @ Illinois

Get back to me when Ferentz has a NC and close to the number of wins and B1G titles. The stupid argument is using Ferentz and legend in the same sentence.

Credit where credit is due. Although you pretty much pick them to lose every week. So maybe not much credit.

They need to fix the bad first halfs, and even worse, the first defensive series.

Lol. I was echoing dwccrew's mocking post about how everyone thinks Ferentz is such a great coach. I was hoping my statement would be so outlandish that the sarcasm was obvious, but I guess not.
