I want them to lose...lose a lot. Every loss gets us closer to taking their precious all time win number.

The Big 10 is rightfully getting absolutely dragged for saving Michigans ass last night. Ultimately, it doesn’t really matter but it was nice to have last (3) Natty’s while dancing on the farcical nature that was the SEC for years.

The Big 10 looks as bad as any other conference, all to save a middling Michigan team that will finish year with 4+ losses.

Shameful what they did to WMU.

The only more shameless conference ref rig or attempted ref rig I can think of is when the Big East refs kept doing all they could to drag West Virginia to a W over Pitt in 2007 that woulda gotten them to the BCS title game. They failed but it was very egregious

I do think you sort of have to throw the first game of the year out for both teams. Teams barely do any hitting in practice now. Game 1 you're not really used to being physical yet

I just asked myself if Texas St. was an FBS team. Imagine my surprise when I checked to find that they are in the Pac-12. What an absolute joke of a conference.

Ummmm, it’s weird being the same age as old people I guess I’m there now. Beanie was a freshman my senior year at school and now his son is being posted on here? Crazy

The first class I followed include KenYon Rambo

They stormed the field when they needed a missed FG at the end of regulation and a fumble in OT to beat Navy in 2019 too. These fans are used to embarrassing themselves

On the other hand, tell that to scUM. As I was once told, things are never as good or as bad as they look in game one. Let them watch film and make corrections for next week. That last bit is for Daniels. Those twats up north can lose the rest of their games.

Certainly he could improve, but this is year two for Daniels. We’ll see though! Hopefully he turns it around because I really think the best OL is with Austin inside.

Best reply to this: My other clock goes to a different school. You wouldn’t know her.

They were lucky it wasn’t 21-14 at the half yesterday. Gave up over 300 yards of offense with 161 on the ground. Arch still threw into double coverage and their primary signature on offense was to just throw it deep.

It’ll be a tough game but I wouldn’t be totally shocked if we don’t put them away nicely in this game either.

Daniels was a serious issue yesterday. To the point where Austin had to go back out to tackle.

There’s no excuses to get beat that bad so consistently vs a MAC team.

Hopefully a short leash is in order this week.

Legit asking did they look bad? The score doesn’t lie but can mislead - 13-12 looks brutal for a game like that. Was Underwood actual trash?

There was all kinds of sunshine pumping the last couple weeks about how improved Underwood has been since the spring game and that he was ready to be fully unleashed. He looked like the exact same QB as last year though.

Take away the bullshit second added back on and he was 11/21 with 123 yards 0 TDs and an INT and had led the team to just 7 points against a MAC defense.

Don't really care what they do until late November.

I'm glad he got one at the end. Dude seems to have no trouble getting open. Hopefully the drops were just first-game jitters, but it does seem like he needs to work on his strength to make contested catches like Jeremiah's first TD.

I think people will overreact to things they see, and Ohio State fans (I know everyone does) tend to forget the other team is going to give Ohio State its best shot right out of the gate, even in bodybag games.

I seriously doubt the defense did anything but basic stuff yesterday - I didn't get to watch much until the 4th quarter. If Ball State's coaches have any talent whatsoever, they know there would be some basic cover 3 defense going on most the day with not a lot of blitzing. Again I didn't see a lot, but if the tackling was good, the schematic stuff doesn't bother me much.

People might get caught up on the 1 team sack stat but their 330lb quarterback definitely didn’t have much time at all. Would be more curious about the hurries data if there are any.

For their first game as a unit I don’t see how anyone could be bothered. They were very sound but I’ll admit the front looked pretty lacksadasical.

I thought they did exactly what they were supposed to do. Tons of pressure and no rushing lanes vs a team with a QB that’s mobile and the strength of their team being their OL.

There were comments by the commentators that a good QB makes OSU pay for certain things and they can get right off with that. There were zero busts in coverage and Ball State was lucky we didn’t have 6+ sacks.

The secondary is going to be the best in the country. The question I have is the end opposite Jackson and how will the LBs hold up vs an elite offense. Atkinson looked no different to me than he did last year. However, Wilder on the other hands is different. I’d like to see him wide on pass downs not inside.

Michigan's lawyers should be going over Bryce Underwood's NIL contract to see how they can get out of it and move on from him next year. He was ass last year and he continues to be ass. No improvements.

He was too busy running his mouth to actually work on improving.

Jesus man, he looks like a grown arse man that’s been in the NFL for two years already

Reminds me of a mini Sayin. His PT and the moment didnt seem too big for him. The INT was CHjr's fault more than anything. But Fahey looked accurate and decisive. I think his play made the hill TSC is climbing that much steeper

A little nervous after both lines were pretty underwhelming against Ball State

Luke should try to save his job and win a big game or something against ND

Clemson is hilariously bad
