All that matters is they moved the ball enough to outscore the buckeyes for the WIN.
Loved Blakes 22 yd TD run. How about Orji? He's a secret weapon. Let's see more him next weekend.
AJ Barner, Loveland were critical. Roman gets a TD, CJ made some big plays.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:24 PM ^
CJ had some insane catches. He is the man when JJ starts scrambling.
November 25th, 2023 at 6:22 PM ^
As much as I loved that play, Orji is a one-trick pony. It's no secret that when he's in the game it's a run. He has one pass attempt and completion for 5 yards in his career and it was last year. Moore sprang it at the right time today to catch OSU off guard, but it's not going to surprise anyone else going forward.
November 25th, 2023 at 8:41 PM ^
The beautiful thing is that it doesn't have to surprise anyone again. We needed it to surprise them TODAY and it did. I'm quite sure there's other gadgets available after a whole year of practice and only one game they've taken seriously so far
November 25th, 2023 at 3:50 PM ^
Moore is a legend.
Also, Michigan gets Harbaugh back next week!
November 25th, 2023 at 4:46 PM ^
Wonder where he coaches next season.
November 25th, 2023 at 5:58 PM ^
How about we table that question of where he’ll coach next year until Feb. 1, 2024? 🤔😉
November 25th, 2023 at 3:51 PM ^
The way the offensive line mauled was beautiful. They did an amazing job.
November 25th, 2023 at 3:51 PM ^
Im just happy Moore will be OC/OL coach only next week. Whew - 3 longgggg tight butthole games but I’ll gladly take it!
November 25th, 2023 at 3:51 PM ^
I swear if I see one “Yeah but” in this thread.
GOOOOOO BLUUUUEEEEE!
November 25th, 2023 at 4:08 PM ^
Yeah but fuck Ryan Day
November 25th, 2023 at 4:33 PM ^
Ryan Day is a buttfuck
November 25th, 2023 at 6:03 PM ^
Giving or receiving?
November 25th, 2023 at 3:52 PM ^
Gotta say that I was holding my breath after not getting the first down on the last offensive series for Michigan.
November 25th, 2023 at 3:52 PM ^
At least there was a little more outside running today. Would've lined to see more downfield passing, and would love to see us have a goal line play that's not out of shotgun, but at the end, there was just enough offense to win, and that's all that matters
November 25th, 2023 at 3:54 PM ^
Offense did enough to win. Fuck the details.
November 25th, 2023 at 3:54 PM ^
It's great to be...A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE!

It's great 👏👏. to be👏👏 A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE!
November 25th, 2023 at 3:55 PM ^
Wish they would have JJ cook a bit more. I really hate the conservative run calling and that last 3rd down run could have cost the game.
also the running backs missed some massive holes on cutbacks.
all that shows there is more in the tank!
special team go freaking blue JJ was on after being off for two games!!!
November 26th, 2023 at 7:33 AM ^
Yes on the missed cutback lanes. Saw one in the fourth quarter that Edwards missed that you could drive a truck through. Instead he plowed into the back of the line for a minimal gain.
November 25th, 2023 at 3:56 PM ^
Did enough to win. And that’s enough. Go Blue!
November 25th, 2023 at 3:58 PM ^
Tough win. Got it done when it mattered.
Day knows he is done
November 25th, 2023 at 4:48 PM ^
Day isn't done yet. If he loses in Columbus next year he will then be.
November 25th, 2023 at 3:58 PM ^
Moore held up really well. OSU took away so much the way those DEs play.
Rooting for Zinter here. It looks bad, I know.
November 25th, 2023 at 6:24 PM ^
Family says there is positive news (separate OP thread)
November 25th, 2023 at 3:58 PM ^
APPARENTLY MICHIGAN HAS PLAYED A WEAK SCHEDULE ALL YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCK OHIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
November 25th, 2023 at 3:58 PM ^
Let’s appreciate the seven minute drive to take the game all the way to the end.
November 26th, 2023 at 7:35 AM ^
It was a thing of beauty. I wanted something special to snag that last first down to ice it and make it an eight minute drive. But they burned just enough clock to make it really tough on McCord and OSU.
November 25th, 2023 at 3:59 PM ^
Victory #MI!
November 25th, 2023 at 3:59 PM ^
Amazing performance.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:00 PM ^
I think Coach Sherrone "did-enough-to-win" Moore should be his permanent nickname.
Don't like his play calling much at all, but NOTHING is going to sour this awesome win. TEAM EARNED this!
November 25th, 2023 at 4:17 PM ^
Jabber "did enough to sour this awesome win" Wock
Fucking guy just beat an all star squad while being HC, OC, OL losing our best lineman and the only guy that can cover MHJ 1 on 1.
GTFO
November 25th, 2023 at 4:24 PM ^
youre entitled to your opinion
(as opposed to GTFO)
if the mildest criticism in a SNOWFLAKE thread soured this win for you than youre not much of a fan.
November 25th, 2023 at 5:38 PM ^
Bustin balls Jabberwock. We are all fam today! I was pissing an moaning plenty during the game.
November 26th, 2023 at 7:44 AM ^
His play calling in harbaugh's absence is a bit vanilla. But he did enough as a fill in with no previous head coaching experience to beat two coaches that have $10 million annual salaries, each in front of 110,000 fans.
He put his players in a position to win the game, and they executed the game plan well.
Minimized turnovers, didn't make any James Franklin-esque dumb decisions, and didn't put key players in situations that were likely to get them injured, zinter's freak, tragic injury notwithstanding.
Yes, I'd love to run up there score on the buckeyes and make them hurt, but at the end of the day, the brief for Moore was to survive and advance. He has stepped in and succeeded over and over.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:01 PM ^
Great win! Incredible effort by everyone.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:04 PM ^
Trente Moore
Henderson
Also Barnhart
thank you
ZZ we are all hoping you heal and go get that draft pick you deserve. Any NFL team who does not take you in first 2 rounds due to injury is going to miss out on a 12 year starter and warrior.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:04 PM ^
Was very worried with Zinter going out. Get well soon, Zak. Nice response after that. Loved the last drive that swallowed space and time. Gonna take a while to come down from this.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:52 PM ^
Nah. Barnhart is a good guard, not tackle. Jones did well.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:05 PM ^
That last drive was borderline pornographic. Only complaints are that the Read Option was there, and we should have passed on 3rd down after Day elected not to call a timeout. Our opponent just ran the clock down for us, the whole playbook should be open.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:05 PM ^
Moore called an outstanding game and JJ did a great job of taking what the defense was giving him. On to Iowa.
November 25th, 2023 at 6:27 PM ^
I loved all the passes to the TE’s today. JJ did a great job pin-pointing his passes. No INT’s is a big plus.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:06 PM ^
JJ’s pass to Wilson was insane. Not sure why they did not let him do more late in the game. He was good JJ today.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:11 PM ^
This team is the definition of solid. We don't necessarily have any one particular strength, but neither do we have a weakness either. Everyone pitches in and finds a way to win.
Hope Zinter's injury isn't as bad as it looked and he can rehab it in time to not hurt his draft stock too much.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:36 PM ^
Sorry to say but I saw his lower leg bent at 30 degrees and in fixed position while the trainers were trying to undo the bent brace. Unless it was just the brace contorted, but I think it's bad...
November 25th, 2023 at 5:05 PM ^
I mean obviously it's bad, but there's a chance it's a clean break with no ligament damage, which is something you can come fully back from in a relatively short time.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:09 PM ^
Michigan won this game. OSU didn't lose it. There were no questionable calls that changed the outcome, no missed calls that would have changed momentum. It was simply and purely Michigan players imposing their will on OSU. It's blatantly obvious which is the best team in the conference, and maybe even in the country.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:12 PM ^
INCREDIBLE we could still pave them with called JJ runs turned off! That shows how great our OL is.
November 25th, 2023 at 4:15 PM ^
I do wonder when, if ever, JJ runs will be turned on?
November 25th, 2023 at 8:34 PM ^
JJ is either hurt or the coaches are insane. The OSU linebackers and edges were able to key in run vs pass all day. They were not put in conflict and did not respect JJ keep reads. For now though we must celebrate this stupendous victory and defer the quibbles!
