We'll be a very young team, then. Hold off until 2023, maybe '24.

I would have liked to have seen a more ball control type passing game. Give Peters quick and easy reads on curls and hitches; those are bigger targets.
Too many lower percentage passes.
I know we'll all wonder "what if" on the DPJ TD catch, but things turned for the worse (besides the Peters injury) when Bush's interception resulted in 3 instead of 7.
Higdon not being healthy hurt; Evans was incredibly hesitant running with the ball.

to the running back and it was completely blown up. Never tried it again.

At least you knew Hoke was saving a lot of stuff for OSU. Can't say the same for Harbaugh. It's gonna be ugly next week.

Another week with no creativity on offense .

Don Brown did not lose this game. Michigan just does not have the personnel yet. Combine that with season injuries to our top two QB's, top two RB's, best O lineman and best CB, there wasn't a lot of chance to win this game. And thanks to the Big Ten refs who have no interest in protecting players' healtlh, we are now going to be back to JOK against the darlings of the conference next week.
November 18th, 2017 at 3:52 PM ^
Possibly our best WR ....

Wisconsin was missing their best LB (lost in fall camp), their center and their top two wrs.

It's the O-line's job to protect the QB's health.

The coaches quit when they ran it on the 3rd and long just before W's first touchdown. Such a lack of confidence by them, so they run it with a 100% known outcome of failure.
November 18th, 2017 at 3:50 PM ^
Outcoached.
November 18th, 2017 at 3:50 PM ^
Felt this thing was going south as soon as they were running wildcat on 3rd and 8, then burning all their TOs during the first quarter because plays couldn't get off the sideline.
If things were running 100% smoothly and the team wasn't executing, that's one thing. But when it's consistently both....

How the fuck do you have to burn all 3 TOs in the first fucking quarter b/c the play clock is running down? Especially when the first 10-15 plays are scripted!

How about Les Miles? He's a Michigan Man and willing to put it all out there to win the game...Harbaugh looks like he doesn't even give a darn....

Maybe we're not a perennial powerhouse anymore. Maybe it's time we start changing our expectations. Shit, it's been over a decade since we were in a great position to win the B10 or have significant national success.
So who are we comparable to? Wisconsin? Auburn? Georgia? I don't have answers, but this stinks and I hate it.

Squandered too many chances in first 35 minutes and napped on bouncing punt or we might have built a lead this young team could have hung onto. When Peters was knocked out, we seemed to get tired and the last 20 minutes was all Wisconsin. Seriously not sure if that reflects injury bug, youth, lack of qb depth, but college football in general runs up and down that way. We were in position to win this game until Peters knocked out.
November 18th, 2017 at 4:08 PM ^
It seemed pretty obvious that the team does not have a ton of faith in JOK and the energy came out of them when Peters went down. Which shouldn't happen, but they're kids.
Personally, I still think people are underrating that it's hard to win a ton of football games without contributions from fifth or fourth year players. We've got:
Hill, Poggi (low impact position), Cole (playing out of position), Kugler (who is not great), Isaac (frequently injured), Speight (injured) on offense.
On defense it's Hurst and McCray. And that's basically it for even contributors. Not just starters. From two entire classes that should be your leadership and the core of the team.
Harbaugh took last year's loaded senior class and lost a coin flip spot/review to make the playoff. Sometimes shit happens. We have had too much shit happen to us over the last decade, I won't deny that. But the hot take artists are insufferable, because they expect literal perfection at all times.

This offense used to be creative. What happened to WR screens, jet sweeps, fake screens into a pass down the seam to a wide open tight end?? Now it's just tight end curl routes and overthrown deep shots. Fuck, it's college football, even underthrowing deep shots works out like 50% of the time with a receiver going back to the ball or getting interfered with. We keep getting told that the offense goes into a shell against bad teams so that we don't put anything new on tape. Well wtf did we put on tape today? Chris Evans wildcat? It didn't work with Jabrill, and it's not gonna work with Evans. Lastly, why aren't we rolling Peters out more, especially in this game? The Big Ten leader in sacks vs. the 2nd worst pass pro oline in the Big Ten. No shit he got injured. Roll the guy out and at least take away some of the space where players can blitz from. Leaving him in the pocket all day set him up for blindside hits the whole fucking day
