2nd half thread: Michigan vs. Rutgers
November 5th, 2022 at 9:16 PM ^
I was expecting this to be over by now
November 5th, 2022 at 9:17 PM ^
This is the second one so it's starting off great.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:17 PM ^
Took Rutgers for granted and I suspect flu or something went through the locker room. Not a good combination.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:18 PM ^
Stop with the flu shit
November 5th, 2022 at 9:19 PM ^
Six guys didn't make the trip, none of whom we heard even rumors about prior to kickoff, and Corum threw up on the field. There's some reasonable evidence that people are sick.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:17 PM ^
Indiana, PSU both close at the half… ended up being ok!!
November 5th, 2022 at 9:19 PM ^
Minter magic better start . D line outside that Morris sack has been under par
November 5th, 2022 at 9:19 PM ^
I guess we'll see what the coaching staff is really made of.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:20 PM ^
Rutgers has 1 yard of rushing at the half.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:21 PM ^
Shake off the MSU mess, shake off the bull junk, get your head in the game, and let’s remind the country who’s the best second half team in the country.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:23 PM ^
Don't be afraid to open things up a little!
November 5th, 2022 at 9:24 PM ^
Really want to see JJ take over a game. He’s been very…Cade like in that he seems more a game manager thus far this year.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:24 PM ^
The coaches need to get their heads out of their asses and let them go.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:24 PM ^
If we adjust to the 50/50 ball and get home on some pass rush we should completely shut them down in the second half. Offense needs to get on the same page - seemed to be some missed timing and miscommunication with some of the receivers.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:25 PM ^
Someone in the media needs to ask Harbaugh after the game what he was thinking not calling his 2nd timeout with over 30 seconds on the clock on that final drive before half.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:27 PM ^
That was a headscratcher indeed. Wasted 10 seconds.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:29 PM ^
Standard Harbaugh clock management
November 5th, 2022 at 9:29 PM ^
It was 4th down. If we don’t pick it up he didn’t want to give Rutgers time to drive down and get a score of their own.
not saying it’s the right thinking, but that’s the thinking.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:25 PM ^
We will crush them this half.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:26 PM ^
Here's hoping the new thread helps the team in the 2nd half. The D will have to play better and stop giving up big pass plays. Rutgers is playing to stop the run. Our WR should be open but they seem to be running poor routes and JJ accuracy is in the dump. I think JJ is getting hit hard and it is playing a negative part in his passing game.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:26 PM ^
This has 2016 Iowa written all over it.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:27 PM ^
No, it doesn’t.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:26 PM ^
Honestly, if we just keep doing what we were doing, but execute, we are fine. Special teams gave them 7 and took 6 off our board. Edward's missed a couple cuts that would have been big. JJ is close on some throws.
It should be 20-10 right now and possibly 27-10.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:27 PM ^
Make field goals. Hit open deep passes. Don’t whiff tackles. Run to the chains. Grade school shit.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:27 PM ^
Coaching/play-calling is fine. The team just isn't executing now. JJ has been inaccurate and DJ Turner is getting picked on by a 3rd string QB.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:28 PM ^
O-line is also letting too many guys through. JJ took some hard hits.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:31 PM ^
Offensive play calling has been fine? LOL
November 5th, 2022 at 9:28 PM ^
Nervous nellies are embarrassing- we will win big. It won’t be close.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:31 PM ^
I appreciate the optimism, but there is plenty of evidence to doubt this. Outside of the blocked punt, Rutgers just had a better game plan. If J.J. can’t do anything in the pass game, then Michigan is in deep trouble.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:33 PM ^
211 yards vs 122 yards. They are bad, we are good. This fluke energy is about to run out…
November 5th, 2022 at 9:29 PM ^
Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
November 5th, 2022 at 9:32 PM ^
Let's Go Blue
November 5th, 2022 at 9:33 PM ^
Need to get off the field.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:35 PM ^
And, of course, we did. They may not got another first down.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:33 PM ^
McCarthy 8 for 14, 88 yards, 6.3 ypa, 0 TD, 0 INT
November 5th, 2022 at 9:35 PM ^
Hmmm... 3rd and 20 so don't line up against ANY of the WRs?!
November 5th, 2022 at 9:37 PM ^
JJ is bad right now, Rutgers wasn't the place I thought he would be spooked.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:39 PM ^
Loveland was wide open. He's just staring his receivers down
November 5th, 2022 at 9:39 PM ^
Ah yes, the seldom used 2nd and 10 run up the middle.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:40 PM ^
Tyler Morris with a crucial catch! Not on my bingo card
November 5th, 2022 at 9:40 PM ^
Fluke energy still happening,
November 5th, 2022 at 9:43 PM ^
No… it’s not
November 5th, 2022 at 9:41 PM ^
Is a fucking 9 year old calling plays!?!
November 5th, 2022 at 9:42 PM ^
Dart board.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:42 PM ^
The number of replies is irrelevant. The poor play by the squad has 0 impact on the game thread.
Time for guys to show I’d they belong in the top 5.
Suffocating D and powerful O. Need it now.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:42 PM ^
JJ and Donovan are special! Cream rises, water finds it’s level. Go to bed chicken littles.
November 5th, 2022 at 9:42 PM ^
Edwards is our best receiver. Just put him out there every snap
November 5th, 2022 at 9:42 PM ^
JJ says "put it on my shoulders"
November 5th, 2022 at 9:43 PM ^
A pass. Across the goaline . Holy shit
November 5th, 2022 at 9:43 PM ^
LB on Donovan Edwards sounds like a bad idea.
