The past two University of Michigan football games against the Purdue Boilermakers have provided a moment of clarity for me: the Michigan defense isn’t just incredibly bad; it’s not just one of the worst defenses in college football; it’s in the conversation amongst the worst defenses in the history of the program.
There were reports prior […]
The Red Wings will possibly struggle to make the playoffs for the first time in a very long time and the wheels appear to be coming off the machine once known as Michigan football. While both situations are dire I think there are both short-term and long-term problems for both programs.
My cousin texted me […]
We’ve just started to get a glimpse of what Rich Rodriguez’s offense is going to look like when he gets Michigan up to full speed. And it is a thing of beauty.
Rushing yards: 380
Yards per rush: 9.7
Rushing TDs: 6
The 380 yards were the most Michigan has run for in over 6 years. Carlos […]
Let me preface this by saying I am still very bullish on Michigan’s head football coach even after a very rough first season. I think Rich Rodriguez is going to produce a very exciting offense and will give Michigan a great shot at winning a BCS championship in the next 3-5 years. The […]
The best thing about the 2008 University of Michigan football season? It’s over. I hoped the team could squeak out a 7-5 record to keep their bowl streak intact, but it’s probably best that the season is over and the team can regroup to prepare for the 2009 season. This season is […]
The Good
Somehow, Michigan has found a way to run the football. The team was obviously brutal during their opening game against Utah. That isn’t a shock given the youth across the entire offense and the fact the Utes boast the #5 ranked rush defense. But look at their stats since that game:

…if I was the offensive coordinator, I’d be in four-wides. It means nothing,’’ said [wide receiver Roy] Williams, referring to a wide-open four-receiver formation…
After a couple of questions about unrelated subjects, Williams was asked if there was any way the Lions will actually use those four-receiver formations.
“That’s not our […]

With about 4:15 left in the third quarter Michigan was poised to draw to within four points of Notre Dame by staging an improbable comeback. True freshman running back Sam McGuffie had been brilliant all afternoon and quarterback Steven Threet just hit a big […]
The Wolverines eeked out a 16-6 win over Miami (OH). While it wasn’t pretty there were some good signs for an offense that is incredibly young and inexperienced. How young and inexperienced?
>The left tackle had a grand total of 15 appearances and 1 start before going out with an injury. He was […]
