That call pure and simple was coaches trying to get too cute and make a call they thought the guys on the other sideline would never suspect. Everyone in that fkn stadium and the millions watching on TV thought Hyde would get the ball (aaaaand he should have) but Meyer in his desire to look like a genius screwed the pooch. First by not playing Hall and secondly for this bonehead mistake.

All of you that said Miller was a better passer then Guiton, GTFOH. His passing is so bad.

Dear Herman, MOVE THE FUCKING POCKET.

Pitt Brown needs benched.

Where the fuck was Wilson? MSU has no speed and he is fast. Maybe a jet sweep at least once?

Could you get some pressure on their QB? You let a JV QB pick you apart.

We got beat by 2 players. MSU has very few weapons. Couldn't scheme for that?

Dennard, Bullough, and Allen are total beasts, their downfield coverage was nearly flawless and they had terrific receivers. Like I said MSU is top 5 good, and they proved it last night, they are legit better

I hate to single a player out because it is a team game and do believe the kid gives maximum effort but when you’re examining the coaching, how do you not focus in on the decision to roll with Pitt Brown, a 5th year senior who’s potential has clearly maxed out to a level that isn’t championship caliber, against a blue chip true freshman that can’t be that much worse, Vonn Bell in this instance, with an eye on development? Hell, why not even try Ron Tanner or, gulp, Armani Reeves?
I won’t question his having just five years of collegiate coaching experience but as the secondary coach, Kerry Coombs, who we all love as a fiery guy and a plus on the recruiting trail, might be someone Urban is forced to take a look at. Everett Withers, too.
This is also the time of year Fickell is always debated by the fans and media. Might this be the year Meyer chooses to go a different direction with regard to the leader of the defense?
I have no idea what the answer is but having the 76th rated Pass Defense in 2012 followed up by the sporting the 102nd best Pass Defense in 2013, against some very weak teams, is something that needs addressed one way or another.

I never played bball, but the cavs are giving up over 100 pts per game. I think it's safe to say their defense sucks. Just admit you were/are wrong (LJ) and move on.

I said Fickell is horrible and needs to not be our D-Coordinator. And you got all sensitive about it.

YOU are the worst kind of person there is. I wouldn't hang myself if you were my friend because I hate people like you and wouldn't be your friend to begin with.
