Apparently this is only the 13th White Out game ever.  Wow, it feels like half of them have been against us.

Statement and Q before kickoff:

Statement: Florida deserves to be ranked 3rd.  Who after Georgia is more impressive?

Question: Which is the second best offense in the B1G?

The general guideline on this stuff is that while it isn't discouraged necessarily, it is far easier  to have a system where there is a generic thread for the evening games (or noon or 3:30 or however it works out in a given week) with distinct threads for select moments from specific games should something significant happen. In other words, feel free to create it if you want, but they generally don't get as much action as you might think - there have been some noted exceptions, of course.

Honest question, is there a team a Michigan fan should pull for tonight between PSU and Auburn ?  Long run might be better for Michigan if PSU wins, though I struggle rooting for PSU except when they play OSU.

Uggh, Tony Fair starts for Auburn.

Both NGs we thought we had from the transfer portal are MASSIVE and starting for SEC schools.

The other one is John Ridgeway at Arkansas. Both look like the real deal.

Whittley is serviceable in spots but these guys look like impact players that would be PERFECT next to Mazi.

Then you can rotate Hinton and Jeter in when you need a little more pass rush.

He'll never be able to play a full drive, IMO.

That's why I'm jealous of Fair and Ridgeway.

Fair is a run stuffing behemoth and Ridgeway is strong as hell and just tosses lineman aside on his way to the QB. Both would have been HUGE pick-ups.

I don't think Hinton will be much until his 5th year senior year. He seems to be on a Mouton, Burgess trajectory of being meh and then I can see him having a great last year at Michigan.

Mazi has been solid. Jeter is Jeter. Fair and Ridgeway would start tomorrow if they were in maize and blue.

Maybe Clemson isn't very good on offense. I know many assumed that Clemson would just keep rolling via plug-n-chug but Clemson clearly has a problem on offense this season (at least so far).
