Same here but I think who the wins and losses come against and even how bad some of them are/aren't will weigh more than just a win count.

From what we saw on Saturday I don't see scUM beating Illinois. Those two big backs + decent defense makes that game a toss up at best. Are wins over the 3 teams from Indiana enough to keep his job if they lose to Sparty, but get the plunger inserted by Iowa/Wisky/OSU? It would be a tough call.

Also, it can't be said enough, if/when Robinson gets hurt RR can kiss the baby. If shoeless is gone tomorrow they maybe beat Purdue. Maybe.

Denard Robinson

Wow has RichRod lucked out. His H.S. team was the last team to beat STA. And like me he's from the 954.

DETROIT -- A 69-year-old Detroit man has put off surgery to install a pacemaker in his chest so he can watch a college football game on TV this weekend. Major Hester deferred the procedure scheduled for Thursday until next week, after Saturday's big showdown between No. 18 Michigan and No. 17 Michigan State in Ann Arbor.The retired office supply clerk is a devout Spartans fan and he can't risk something going wrong on the operating table that would prevent him from seeing the game.
"You never know," Hester told The Detroit News. "It's like going into combat. You may come home alive or you may come home dead."
Hester suffers from cardiomyopathy, a condition where the heart muscle is weakened. He says he's willing to take the risk of putting off the surgery.
"Whatever happens, I want to see the game," he said.

I heard this week's episode is where Denard Robinson gets raped by MSU and Michigan football is on life support once again...

Should be a great one!!

I thought this was interesting:

Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson has 98 rush attempts this season, but only once has he scrambled for a gain after dropping back and looking to throw the ball. Robinson has been the designated ballcarrier on a running play 76 times, has kept the ball on a zone read 19 times, and the final two rushes were a sack and a fumbled snap. Robinson has used a run-fake before exactly one-third of his passes this season, and he has completed more than 78 percent of his passes after faking the run. Perhaps the greatest effect of Michigan?s play-action is giving Robinson time to hit receivers downfield.

I am probably breaking some sort of ethical code here, but I got hold of Rich Rodriguez's Michigan playbook and I'm going to share a few of the play descriptions with you.
QB Keeper: On this play, Denard Robinson takes the snap, finds a hole and runs upfield.
QB Accidental Keeper: This is similar to the QB Keeper play but is run when Robinson tries to hand off to a running back, realizes the back doesn't know the play or is out of position, and is therefore forced to run the ball himself.
QB Jailbreak: Here the offensive line pretty much lets the entire defense through unblocked and Robinson has to run around in circles, spinning and jumping over people, just to salvage a few yards.
QB Receiver: A vertical passing play, Robinson takes a seven-step drop, heaves the ball as far down the field as he can -- some 60 or 70 yards -- and then sprints downfield to catch the pass.
QB Bath Slippers: This is an entire offensive package in which Robinson can run any of the plays above. However, in this package he is wearing fuzzy bath slippers to raise the level of difficulty so football is a bit more fun and challenging for him.
QB Tackle: This is a trick play in which Robinson allows the defense to tackle him to burn some clock and/or give the Michigan defense a rest.
QB Audible: On this play, Robinson looks to the sideline and realizes Rodriguez has absolutely no idea what he's doing. So Robinson just decides to take the snap and make a play all by himself again. Michigan runs this play 90 percent of the time.
