If you have watched O'Korn play and believe that Speight was only marginally better, you should stop commenting on football.

LOL. You didn't play shit Uncle Rico.

After browsing through your posting history, it's very clear that you are either a troll or an incredibly stupid man.

It was 14-10 when the rain started coming down. I was there.
As for whether it hurt MSU more, they (normally a turnover-prone team) managed to avoid turning it over at all while we did five times, so I'd say no.

IU is not below average. Lost to two clear top ten teams and also us. Beat a secretly 5-1 UVA in Chancellorsville.

I watched both of those games, they were not stomped. They're dumb and don't have the team speed necessary, but they played both of those teams well.
It's too bad that game's in East Lansing. In Bloomington I'd take the Hoosiers straight up. As is, State maybe holds on to win a defensive struggle.

No one is marginalizing MSU, they're just not glorifying them. Just because they beat us, doesn't mean they're Bama or something.

The backup QB is always popular when the offense is struggling because he represents hope. It's usually false hope, but still.

USC is making this a game now; whatever turnover malaise afflicted them in the 1st half have disappeared.
upshot: more shots of those smoking hot SC cheerleaders. damn.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:14 PM ^
October 14th, 2017 at 11:15 PM ^
They feed off our misery. They are young and questionable in talent but they now have supreme confidence since we handed them a game last week. We should have stuck a fork in them instead of making their season
October 14th, 2017 at 11:16 PM ^
Sparty NO!
October 14th, 2017 at 11:20 PM ^
USC/Utah tied at 21...late in the 4th.
...welp. Ronald Jones just got flipped into the endzone for a USC TD. 28-21 Trojans.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:21 PM ^
I'm going the distance tonight.
I don't know how many more M wins we'll get where I can watch college football all night afterwards.
Boise St. is up 14-0 on SDSU.
Arizona St. is up 7-0 on Washington.
Oregon and Stanford have kicked.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:22 PM ^
Washington is struggling BIG TIME against ASU.
Would be kinda funny if both Washington teams lost this weekend.

What channel is Oregon-Stanford on? ABC after the USC-Utah game?

Fox Sports 1

Came on after OSU
October 14th, 2017 at 11:23 PM ^
can't get out of their own way. They let a fat, slow return guy go 55 yards with the kick off, and then Sparty fumbles AGAIN on the the next play. Bounces right into their DBs hands, and he promptly farts it out of bounds.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:26 PM ^
he is slower than Pat Caputo!
October 14th, 2017 at 11:25 PM ^
and the second half is turnovers. 3 by USC in first half (fumbles) , 0 in the second. If Michigan had fwon the turnover battle last week they would have won the game by 2 touchdowns or more.

5 CAR, 115 YDS, 2 TD
October 14th, 2017 at 11:30 PM ^
yet again.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:28 PM ^
and this shouldn't even be close.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:30 PM ^
lol recency bias like a motherfucker.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:32 PM ^
for the last three weeks.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:31 PM ^
Can someone explain to me the reason why Stanford does the pitch to Love? They regularly line up in I-form, then have the QB pitch it directly behind him to Love a couple yards back (and then Love hits the joystick and murders everyone).
It's not a pitch out to one side or the other as the back is already moving, which is what you typically see. It's straight behind the QB, and frankly it seems kind of slow developing.
What is the point of that? To give Love full options? To force him to wait for the blocking to develop?
October 14th, 2017 at 11:34 PM ^
Les's LSU teams ran this all the time and it always confused me.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:34 PM ^
We ran the same play against Purdue.
LSU runs it all the time.
I believe it has something to do with some kind of counter actiion, but I'll let the experts answer.
But since it's so late, you may want to look up the Purdue UFR. I want to say it was Evans that scored on it.
October 14th, 2017 at 11:36 PM ^
O10 | 1 | G | Ace trips tight bunch | 1 | 2 | 2 | 4-3 under | 8.5 | Run | Crack pitch counter | Evans | 10 | |||||||
Hot dang. I imagine Michigan wanted to hang onto this one until at least MSU because it’s nasty. McKeon leaves backside, which is what he’s done on the counter stuff Michigan’s done to date; this could also be split zone. ILBs react like it’s the counter and evaporate. On the outside the designated "shoot upfield" guy does that immediately; Ulizio(+1) kicks him out. Gentry(+0.5) sees his guy fight outside in anticipation of a sweep. Gentry locks him out. CB erases self outside when he sees the pitch, and Evans is scoring from literally anywhere on the field. RPS +3. |
October 14th, 2017 at 11:56 PM ^
One thing that bothers me about the write up... I imagine Michigan wanted to hang onto this one until at least MSU because it’s nasty.
...you really think because we showed this ONCE we can't run it again effectively?
This drives me nuts about about our offense. If we have a sneaky wrinkle, we never see it again.
For example, that shovel pass to Hill play we saw today. I'd be shocked if we run that again. But why not? Are teams REALLY preparing that much where all guys are going to see a formation and realize the playcall in the middle of a game?
October 15th, 2017 at 12:00 AM ^
The first time is going to be the most effective though. If you can save that for MSU and get a free TD against them you'd prefer that.
