Does the analysis take into consideration holding calls that were declined?  Could this answer a little bit of Alabama's bad luck?  If they still get the sack and get a holding call they would decline the play.  Obviosuly, this would scew the numbers that much and I am sure Alabama is still unlucky here, but it may bring them a little closer to the average...

Also, with the sack rate corrlation, I would assume the defences that are getting the most holding called against the offense are losing out on possible sacks because of the hold, thus giving a possible answer to positive correlation of the sack rating against plays/holding cal.

Just some thoughts...

Best Part

The best of the entire welcome article came near the end "he averaged 36.3 yards on 23 punts, pinning 12 inside the 20 with a long of 62". 

I love this kid already!  Really hope to hear his name called on Saturday's in the years to come!

Emil Ekiyor

Does anybody know what is going on with his recruitment.  I thought I had read statements saying he was sticking with Michigan even after visiting Alabma and then a week later there is a huge run of crystal balls to Alabama.  Not for sure what happened here and how we keep missing on our beiggest OL targets each year.

Timeouts

I wish they would use their timeouts on defense more often in the first half.  It seems there is always one drive each game where the offense is doing something the defense isn't ready for and they keep doing it.  I wish they would take a timeout and figure out how to work on it before they scroe a touchdown.

He should get taller too

Since he is only going into his junior year, I wouldn't be surprised if ended up a few inches taller as well.

I see what you did there

Let's be honest.  This entire post was done so you could highlight how Higdon is better than Weber, but then you tried to throw us off by never mentioning it in your article...You sly little devils!

What a Defense

While Hoke and crew did nothing with the Offense, look at that Defense.  Your DB's are Lewis, Stribling, Hill, and Thomas.  Gedeon and McCray were your linebackers and Charlton and Hurst were the DL's.  Dang, that is a lot of production. 

You have at least 2 first rounders in there, 3-5 mid round guys, and 1 or 2 would be fringe guys.  That is impressive. 

I'm with you

I'm with you on this one.  I can't see a situation where any team behind Michigan jumps them.  The committee really labored the point that conference champions don't matter as much as they have in the past.  They look at strength of schedule and head to head.  If Colorado beats Washington we would have wins against every team who might jump us...and I can't see the committee doing that based on their comments this week.

Intelligence Exhumed

The pairing of Big Ten teams might just be the first intelligent thing said on this blog :)

McCaffrey

The McCaffrey kid grew watching Denard Robinson?  Dang...I am old!

People-Jones

I thought we were treating this like the Gary recruitment, where we give updates on him when there aren't even any updates to be given.

Sure Thing

It is the "Dude" formation where we decalre, "we are so much better than you we only need 10 people!"

It May Just Be Me

Maybe it is just me, but this People-Jones recruitment seems like it is going to take on a very Gary esque theme.  Where Michigan comes out and seems like the odds on favorite to the point where everyone knows where he is going, but is too afraid to saying as to not jink it and have him pull a DeShawn Hand.
