That’s the game 2 pick 6s and terrible play calling inside the 20
December 31st, 2022 at 9:02 PM ^
Yep. You flip some of that and the defense doesnt feel the need to go bliztball and this is probably a 49-35ish win
December 31st, 2022 at 10:36 PM ^
Snowflake you call a TD a TD .
December 31st, 2022 at 8:38 PM ^
Stop it.
December 31st, 2022 at 8:39 PM ^
Ohio State is winning right now. Imagine OSU winning the national championship after all this.
December 31st, 2022 at 8:40 PM ^
It’s all but guaranteed Michigan can’t have joy.
December 31st, 2022 at 9:26 PM ^
Whatever. We still beat them, in their own house, won the division and won the conference. Piss on the rest.
December 31st, 2022 at 9:56 PM ^
Exactly. People better start getting used to this, as it’s going to become the norm with the expanded playoff. One team is going to win the regular season game only to have it rendered meaningless when the loser wins the NC. This will happen to BIG and SEC teams all the time.
December 31st, 2022 at 10:43 PM ^
Cool, bowl games and conference championships no longer relevant. Who could have ever seen this coming with playoffs?
December 31st, 2022 at 10:45 PM ^
That's what it feels like. You think you've got BPONE dead and buried, but then it busts out of the coffin like the Undertaker to remind you that your existence as Michigan fans is pain. How else do you explain the Lucy holding the ball scenario of Michigan crushing OSU in Columbus only to sneak into the CFP because USC cant play defense and then Michigan loses while OSU wins the title?
December 31st, 2022 at 8:41 PM ^
I would rather have OSU win a Natty than OSU beating us AND winning a Natty in the process.
We just didn't have the gas this year. No problem. Take our win vs. the sucknuts and onto next year where we reload with JJ, Edwards, and Will Johnson.
December 31st, 2022 at 9:34 PM ^
Sorry but we had plenty of gas this year. Losing Corum sucks but it’s not like we couldn’t keep up with TCU. Big mistakes and piss poor management around the goal line fucked this game. I’m not sure how long is needed to learn a defensive approach but it really looked like the OL read the “How to stop the 3-3-5” booklet and hour before the game.
December 31st, 2022 at 10:35 PM ^
Dude, we scored 45 points against the 3-3-5. I’d worry way more about the senseless zero blitzes we called on multiple touchdowns.
December 31st, 2022 at 10:40 PM ^
One bad play call around the goal line -- and if that play call works, not one person on this blog calls it stupid.
Unless you're blaming the fumble on "piss poor management." Personally, I'd put that in the "mistakes" category.
Sometimes the ball bounces your way. Today it didn't, no doubt. It sucks. We gotta eat it.
December 31st, 2022 at 11:38 PM ^
First time in history you have a 2-time winner of O line award, and you go all razzle dazzle to get 1 yard after a TO? Sorry dude, that’s going full retard. And you never come back from going full retard.
January 1st, 2023 at 7:32 AM ^
Not retard but a bad decision he owned up to and other passing and line mistakes made by fallible humans. As a crushed fan it hurts bad but this team gave us a lot of joy and very high expectations that didn't turn out our way or theirs.
Oh and one bad call on the Wilson non-touchdown would have changed everything and that is not within UM's control. How everybody nationally saw what we saw of no possession until he was sitting on the goal line and a review still screwed it up? You go to the reference official in the booth and he says when did he have possession every time and the answer comes back we didn't look at that, apparently. WTF?
Nebraska, Sunbelt officials Tyler Ecker, it matters.
December 31st, 2022 at 8:39 PM ^
How about snowflakes for the red zone impotence inside the 2 yard line. So many points left on the board and so many points given away to them.
December 31st, 2022 at 8:40 PM ^
In the what could go wrong you wouldn't think giving up 2 pick 6s, maybe 1 then move on and get things right. As it turned out, almost anything that could go wrong in the first half, went wrong.
1) Missing the TD in the first drive left 6 (7) points on the field as Mullings fumbled at the goal line.
2) Reversing the Roman Wilson TD catch.
Bottom line; it was all too much to overcome and Michigan came up short.
December 31st, 2022 at 8:45 PM ^
I think you are confused about the concept of a snowflake thread. You probably shouldn’t post any random thoughts on a separate thread and then label it with snowflake. Ironically, you touched on three different actual snowflake threads. Impressive! Just giving you a hard time. This was crushing.
December 31st, 2022 at 8:52 PM ^
didnt think the message body could be worse than the headline, but i was wrong.
December 31st, 2022 at 9:02 PM ^
We arent even in this game with Cade, stop it.
The pick sixes were bad but without JJs ability to run we would have had almost no offense.
December 31st, 2022 at 9:30 PM ^
You're still an idiot I see.
Cade only threw 7 ints at UofM, the second year recruiting winner threw 2 and lost the game. Get over it, one more year he'll be ready to win and than leave for the NFL immediately.
Are all those recruiting subscriptions are paying off?
Hope Sam Webb and Devin Gardner are taking refunds for as long as they pushed to get Cade out.
December 31st, 2022 at 10:42 PM ^
Duggan also threw two INTs.
You're saying JJ lost the game? Nope. You're wrong. Our defense's inability to get a stop the entire second half. JJ was the man tonight, and full credit to him for not hanging his head after those two plays.
You must be a lot of fun. A player makes a mistake, therefore he "sucks," regardless of everything he does in the game.
December 31st, 2022 at 11:00 PM ^
I never said "he sucks" , way to admit it.
So you don't understand enough about football to know turnovers that lead to points are the most important stat there is?
The 5star gave it away, but keep complaining about recruiting rankings.
Especially when Jaydn Davis commits eleswhere.
December 31st, 2022 at 11:29 PM ^
You are the one that doesnt seem to understand that JJ's runs kept drives alive and allowed receivers to get open on broken plays...the only way they were getting open...you put Cade in there today and he looks just like he did against Hawaii.
December 31st, 2022 at 11:46 PM ^
No, I understand you are an idiot as always.
January 1st, 2023 at 6:35 PM ^
What's your point dude...You think Mcnamara was/is the better QB is that it? He didn't look like the better QB earlier this year..Then he got hurt. JJ made some mistakes, it was his first full season. If you can't see how this team is better with JJ as opposed to Cade then i'm wasting my time. Honestly I blame Harbaugh and the OCs if anyone...Michigan wasn't prepared all season for someone to completely shut down their run game. It wasn't because of some lack of ability either, it was the arrogance of the coaching staff wanting to run the ball no matter what. Guess we'll see next year what kind of season Mcnamara has, because if he's as good as you think he is, Iowa should win the West.
December 31st, 2022 at 11:40 PM ^
Cade plays for Iowa my man!
December 31st, 2022 at 11:48 PM ^
Yup, and they have a better chance of winning a B1G championship next year than UofM does ......thanks 5stars.
December 31st, 2022 at 11:52 PM ^
Youre either a troll or the biggest idiot on the board if you think Iowa has a better chance at a Big Ten title
January 1st, 2023 at 6:41 PM ^
All I had to do was scroll down one more, you actually said it lol. Ya Iowa has a chance to goto Indy, that's not saying much in that putrid division. But they wont have a chance in hell against anyone from the East. You are talking like Cade Mcnamara was a difference maker. Look I liked Cade, up until he acted like he couldnt be benched and performed like shit. You are dreaming if you think Iowa is going to be able to surround him with the same type of talent he had at Michigan. Their O-line is poor, they have no recievers, and average RBs. Oh and their defense loses several star players. But no Cade will makeup for all of that because hes so great. He'll be rolling right and throwing 60 yard dimes to Erick All.
December 31st, 2022 at 9:02 PM ^
Four plays led to 28 point swing. Two pick-sixes and two turnovers inside the five (one on downs).
After improving execution most of the season, they took a big, fat, steaming turd of a step backwards tonight. Sucky way to end the season.
December 31st, 2022 at 9:07 PM ^
Star chasing surely caught up with this program tonight.
December 31st, 2022 at 11:42 PM ^
I think you’re seeing stars. Stop drinking and go to bed!
December 31st, 2022 at 10:07 PM ^
It can always get worse.
Fiesta Bowl sucked rotten eggs, but 13-1 is an outcome that is very good.
