Still numb since last Monday.

Really dont care much which team wins tonight. Perhaps I prefer Mich more because of my intense dislike like for tOSU.

 

[Dionysus]

Wait a minute, where's the SEC?

 

[caryhorn]

So far M is running well against W. Not at all surprising

 

[WorsterMan]

UM pounding W on the ground. Blue draws first blood!

7-0

I need to pay closer attention.
I swear I thought to announcer say a back had spent too much time in the bathroom
Instead of backfield

 

[LonghornCatholic]

I’m gonna either be mad or cry if Michigan gets a sack on Washington’s first series.

I’m still numb too. Who wins matters not to me.
I hate M and osu so there’s that.

Damn I wish it was Texas there.

Damn I wish it was Texas there.

We were very close, despite not playing our best in the Sugar Bowl.

 

[nashhorn]

I credit Sark for getting us there and I blame him for not getting us to here tonight. Just my opinion but that’s what I feel. We could run on them just as M appears to be going, nevertheless I will always contend there is no excuse for being unable to get it in the EZ with four tries from inside the 12, zero. Not with the game on the line. And Penix misses a TD, darn.

 

[caryhorn]

Penix missed an open receiver in the end zone. He’s not “on” tonight like he was last week.
He didn’t miss anyone in clutch situations last week.

 

[WorsterMan]

I just explained what NIL is and how it is harming college football to my wife. It was kind of like explaining how the Texans stumbled into the NFL playoffs !!

 

[Walking Boss]

Sickening feeling to watch Michigan do to udub what we should have done and we’re capable of doing.

 

[txhorn_et]

Washington defense crowding the LOS. Michigan taking advantage of that. Break one tackle and it’s off to the races!!

 

[Phil Elliott]

UM showing more confidence in their run game than we did.

 

[caryhorn]

My oh my. M running through W like poop through a goose.
I’m having visions of what Jonathan Brooks might have done last week.

Watch the play of Michigan’s offensive line.
Looking forward to the Horns playing to that level next season. Experience and maturity.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Even without JBrooks, we were gashing them just like that but we did not stick with it.

 

[WorsterMan]

Yup, UM run game.... like poop thru a goose!

I think M has a better running game now than the Horns. Especially since Brooks went down.
Also M’s O line is better than the Horns’. Much more experienced

We didn’t break two long runs for td’s in the first quarter.

Problem was we got behind the chains early and often.

 

[Creek]

Penix is tight and Dub looks like TCU.

 

[WorsterMan]

Horns 2nd game next fall: Michigan @ Ann Arbor. MI Offensive starters returning - 1. Yes, 10 Seniors. Only QB McCarthy returns.

Looked it up last week.

 

[Walking Boss]

Even without JBrooks, we were gashing them just like that but we did not stick with it.

Sometimes our stupid procedure penalties took us off track. Michigan doesn’t make many of those kinds of mistakes and Harbaugh won’t do anything but run the ball if Washington can’t stop it.

 

[Vol Horn 4 Life]

We didn’t break two long runs for td’s in the first quarter.

Both backs averaged over 7 yds per carry on a whopping 8 carries each. UW couldn't stop either back. I kept asking the entire game why aren't we running more because they cant stop it. Instead we got into a passing pissing contest and could have controlled the game with running. I think we are the better match up with Michigan's style, but we'll never know.

 

[Sam Fowler]

With a healthy J Brooks we run all over Wash

We kept getting in third and long. Our penalties (11) put us behind the chains. It put our run game in a hole.
