What an amazing football weekend for the state of Michigan!! Wolverines taking care of business against the Irish Saturday night, under the lights, on the national spotlight...way to go blue!! Devin Gardner played superb minus a hiccup in our own endzone throwing pics. Great win and we should now cruise into 5/6-0 in the next 4 games.
Lions, Lions, Lions, you made me rip my hair out and put enough wear and tear on my body for a full season as a fan. We denied ourselves at least 21 pts in the first half with fumbled snaps, terrible penalties (SUH!) and missed opportunities. Yet we still be the Vikings in a game with NFC North implications.
REG-GIE, REG-GIE, REG-GIE!!!! What a game by Reggie Bush in his Lions game 1 debut with 4 rec's for 100 yds TD and 91 rush yards as well! Stafford and the offense looked in sync as he slung the ball a ton like normal and passed for 357 yds.
After all of our mistakes, we still pulled out the win and are 1-0 in the division baby!!
Great weekend and more to come!!!
Today marks the last time that Michigan and Notre Dame will meet on the football field. This historic rivalry dates back to 1887 as these two most winningest football programs (Michigan #1 and ND #3) have met 40 times. When Michigan and ND meet you better be glued to the screen until the last second because 5 of the last 7 games have been decided by 7 points or less. In 2011, The Big House hosted a night game for the first time in its 84 year history....
In 2009, Tate Forcier threw a touchdown pass with 11 seconds left to beat the Irish in another thriller.
This game has meant so much to these amazing programs over the years and many stars have played in this matchup. ND's coach Brian Kelly down played this rivalry and then realized how terrible he sounded and revised his statement. Anyone who is a fan of college football will be watching this game tonight. ESPN College Gameday has been to Ann Arbor 6 times for this game which states the importance of this game to the National audience.
I apologize to the fans looking for a last second finish on a touchdown pass because this one will be a beat down by my Wolverines. We have just about cleared out all of the Rich Rod players and have finally gotten back to pro-style offense with Devin Gardner leading the ship. Michigan has won 6 of last 7 games vs ND at the Big House and Brady Hoke is undefeated at home over his 1st two seasons so I am looking forward to the Wolverines dominating tonight under the lights!!
A big matchup will be in the trenches with Michigan's offensive line defending against ND's defensive line. If Taylor Lewan and company can give my man Gardner some time to throw the ball, I don't see Michigan having any issues tonight. Also, tonight will be a coming out party for RB Derrick Green even though he is the backup to Fitz Touissaint.
It's gonna be a SEA OF MAIZE tonight at the BIG HOUSE under the LIGHTS!!! Let's send these little Irish Lep's home and cap off this historic rivalry with a confident win tonight boys....
