Another Wasted Season
October 19th, 2019 at 11:21 PM ^
100% agree. We will never win a big ten title in my lifetime
October 19th, 2019 at 11:30 PM ^
Are you going to die soon or something?
October 19th, 2019 at 11:44 PM ^
We can hope
October 19th, 2019 at 11:21 PM ^
At least our coaches discovered the forward pass!!! It’s sad bc this will give Harbaugh an excuse to be utter shit yet again.
it’s in Michigan’s DNA to be unclutch.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:22 PM ^
Year 5 of Harbaugh and NO MEANINGFUL road wins - that says it all!
Please do not include beating a 7-6 ped state or a 3-9 or 7-6 staee team as MEANINGFUL road wins - those are wins against a mediocre or bad opponent!
October 19th, 2019 at 11:26 PM ^
Pedo State will lose to MSU next week. Book it.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:35 PM ^
I wish I was as confident about that as you, lol. It'll be good for us that we don't have to play in Beaver Stadium, but that's about the only positive I can find. Unless our line figures out how to block someone we won't score enough to beat PSU or you guys.
October 20th, 2019 at 12:06 AM ^
Penn State will win that one ugly
October 20th, 2019 at 9:20 AM ^
October 19th, 2019 at 11:26 PM ^
And to you downvoters. What's your counter point?
We played well? Who the fuck cares? This season is over.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:34 PM ^
The anonymous downvoters are a bunch of cucks who think we still live in 1953 and that moral victories matter.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:43 PM ^
Downvoted for using the word 'cuck' non-ironically.
October 20th, 2019 at 12:48 AM ^
Downvoted for proving my point.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:36 PM ^
Counterpoint: it's a college football game. Go find something genuinely meaningful to get so maudlin about.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:40 PM ^
Then leave the site. We don't need fair-weather fans like you.
Based on today, I think we'll win the next four and give OSU a hard time.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:49 PM ^
Hahahaha this idiot thinks OSU will have a hard time with Michigan.
they will destroy this team by historic proportions and you will still make excuses.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:50 PM ^
Piss off, bucknut.
October 20th, 2019 at 4:04 AM ^
Fuck you
October 20th, 2019 at 2:25 AM ^
What kinda dick are you smoking?
October 19th, 2019 at 11:54 PM ^
Maybe your gettin downvoted because you didn’t need to be captain fucking obvious and make this needless thread. Js
October 19th, 2019 at 11:27 PM ^
Shut the f***u and go drink by yourself somewhere you snowflake.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:29 PM ^
This was a positive season?
Are they going to win something?
Got anything to actual counter my point?
October 19th, 2019 at 11:35 PM ^
The team played its heart out in a tough environment, fought through horrid officiating and a 21-point deficit only to lose in cruel fashion and all you can think of is to make some dumbass post about how they didn't meet your super awesome expectations.
I'm sure the team gives a shit what you think.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:35 PM ^
Sounds like you could use a bandwagon to jump on. I hear there are some open seats at Wisconsin.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:46 PM ^
Amen, my brother. Amen.
October 20th, 2019 at 12:56 AM ^
you don’t have a point. because you’re an annoying fucking pain in the ass.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:29 PM ^
What a bunch of terrible takes. I'm embarrassed for all of you. We played a great game, and were a couple penalties away from 450 yards, and a couple more drops away from 500, on a pretty good defense. And there's no way you can put this game on Harbaugh. MAYBE on the receivers as a group, though they came up huge at other times. But, most definitely on the officiating.
I hate the loss, but this is the happiest I've been with the team in ages. Can't wait for Notre Dame. Go Blue!
October 19th, 2019 at 11:31 PM ^
YAYYY!!!! GOOD FOR THEM!
We are treating Michigan like a fucking 8 year old T-ball team. You guys PLAYED GREAT!
Another season lost. Argue it.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:33 PM ^
THIS IS WHAT OUR FAN BASE HAS BECOME?? screw you dude. Happy about a loss. I’ll applaud the effort. Never knock a kid who plays as hard as most did tonight. Who will I knock.,..this dumb coaching staff. JH/DB should be ashamed of themselves. They lost this game with dumbness and stubbornness.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:38 PM ^
Where in the FUCK did I knock the kids? ANYWHERE? Can you find that in my post?
This is about the program.
This program doesn't fucking win ANYTHING. Period. End of discussion.
I'm not going to get excited about a good loss. This is not fucking Rutgers.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:45 PM ^
I am on your side. Response was to the dude loving moral victories. My take isn’t at the Players, but the dumbest staff in college football.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:46 PM ^
Sorry. That's the booze talking lol.
Preciate it. I'm on an island apparently with this.
October 20th, 2019 at 12:07 PM ^
So that’s why they need to lose their jobs. No one is calling out the players they gave it all. Harbaugh is an overrated piece of shit that is not capable of winning at Michigan
October 20th, 2019 at 1:16 PM ^
RXwolverine, I don’t like losing either, but you need to control your emotions and think rationally. You are being an ass
October 19th, 2019 at 11:34 PM ^
Thank you. Michigan “fans” with this knee jerk reaction after THAT game, should be ashamed of themselves. Considering the refs and the environment, aside from 3 or 4 plays I’m not sure we could’ve played much better. Please go find a different school to root for. Please! These kids shouldn’t have to deal with such idiocy.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:43 PM ^
Not on Harbaugh?
1. Punt on 4th and 1 on first drive from the 46.
2. Field goal try from 58 on 4th and 6 at end of half with Moody nonetheless.
3. Wasted timeout to challenge an obvious 1st down. Make them punt. MSU?
4. Repeated zone reads up the middle on 1st down that go nowhere.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:55 PM ^
Regarding #3, wouldn’t the clock have started on the ready for play whistle? If so, Harbaugh was calling a timeout regardless so it didn’t hurt to challenge the spot.
October 20th, 2019 at 12:20 AM ^
Yes. You are correct. I take it back.
October 20th, 2019 at 12:38 AM ^
But a Penn State player was injured with under 2 minutes left. They would have had to use a TO, not Michigan.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:52 PM ^
I don’t think you can blame officiating when they had more penalty yards than us, but the timing of the penalties was the issue.
When losing to someone brings you the most joy in ages, it just shows how disappointing things have been for a long time. Penn State beat Pitt by 7 and Iowa by 5. They’re undefeated but hardly a juggernaut. If we just went toe to toe with Alabama or Clemson, I might share your happiness, but it was freaking penn state.
I’m proud of the way the team fought, but they should have won the game and anything less is disappointing.
October 20th, 2019 at 12:20 AM ^
The problem with your point is that it's based on no standards. If Michigan loses to ND next week, you won't be saying, "Welp, I guess I was wrong, Michigan under Harbaugh is still a far way away from ever doing anything of note." You'll say something like "if just a couple of things had gone differently, Michigan would have won, so the loss is actually an example of Michigan being good." Then you'll say the same thing if they lose to MSU and you'll say the same thing when they lose to OSU. And you'll call everyone who actually wants the team to win bad fans with no perspective. "They were so close to 10-2 guys. Who cares if they went 8-4/7-5, they played hard. That's all I care about."
October 19th, 2019 at 11:29 PM ^
Harbaugh himself said we should be the favorite to win the big ten did he not?
October 19th, 2019 at 11:30 PM ^
Michigan isnt the school for moral victories.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:31 PM ^
The play calling once we had 1st and goal at the fucking 7 was disgusting.
We had a 1 on 1 with Nico on first down and what do we do? Run a fucking draw of course. Do we make adjustments in case we get that matchup again? Nope. In fact, on the 4th down, the PSU defense was so scared of the fade to Nico that they doubled teamed him. The safety literally ran full speed towards the back of the end zone to his side as the CB jammed him.
So...there was 4 minutes to play and we had a first and goal from the god damn 7. And what do we do? Run clock like scoring is a foregone conclusion! Don’t take advantage of our 6-5 receiver against their 5-10 CB. No. Let’s run the god damn ball. If I could cancel my fucking flight for next week and get a refund I would.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:50 PM ^
Can't wait for you to be our new OC. I'm sure you'll have a lot of offers but we really need your keen insight and obvious credentials. You need to put all that aside and do it for the Blue. Please, Obi Wan. You're our only hope.
October 20th, 2019 at 1:59 AM ^
Here’s the thing, you don’t have to be a D1 OC to realize that we should be taking advantage of our mismatches. Clearly Penn States DC thought it was a big enough mismatch to sprint the only safety to Nicos side in an attempt to double team him on 4th down.
It doesn’t take a genius to realize that 6’-5” guys with 40” verticals usually beat 5’-10” guys with 35” verticals for jump balls. Also, clock and game management would’ve greatly benefited from trying this on first down instead of setting 40 seconds of game time on fire with a worthless draw play.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:51 PM ^
That is bc our starting QB is absolute trash. Full stop. We treat this team like a bunch of toddlers. That is Michigan football under Harbaugh. Moral victories. Harbaugh cannot win on the road or as an underdog. Team is unclutch af.
Time for basketball. Season is a waste of time from here on out.
October 20th, 2019 at 12:22 AM ^
Nobody is talking about this enough. Harbaugh ran the clock down to the benefit of psu like the clueless pussy he is
October 19th, 2019 at 11:31 PM ^
Moral victories, eh, not of much value. But it's still even worse to fold up like a lawn chair which is exactly what this team did against Wisconsin, Florida, even OSU etc. Counts for something but not enough.
I still think a win over OSU would be a bit more than a moral victory given the recent domination.
It's disappointing but it's been pretty apparent since 2017 that this program wasn't really on a championship trajectory.
October 19th, 2019 at 11:32 PM ^
We are who we are at this point.
We need more speed, it's time to start the talented Freshman at slot WR/ Safety.
