SKULL SESSION: DON BROWN TAKES THE BLAME FOR BACK-TO-BACK DRUBBINGS, VISUALIZING WHAT A SOCIAL-DISTANCED OHIO STADIUM COULD LOOK LIKE, AND HOW THE THAD FIVE STACKS UP IN THE ONE-AND-DONE ERA
DON BROWN WANTS THE BLAME. Don Brown's defense has shit the bed against Ohio State in back-to-back seasons, and he wants you to be sure to know that it's all his fault, not the players.
Brown's defenses have allowed a combined 118 points to the Buckeyes the past two seasons. In 2018, after a 62-39 loss in Columbus ended Michigan's playoff hopes, Brown was asked repeatedly about his top-ranked defense's performance. He said the Wolverines had an "outstanding year and a terrible week," while stressing the need to "man up" and "move on."
Thursday's comments about Ohio State took on a similar tone.
“And once again, the Ohio State game was a huge negative for us," Brown said. "So I’m not gonna live in that world. And I don’t want the players to live in that world. We acknowledge it, we move on from it, and hopefully I do a better job. Cause I don’t blame players for anything, OK? You blame the old guy, right here. OK?
"I gotta do a better job getting our guys ready and I promise you I’m going to. I didn’t mean to get, like, heavy there.”
Wait, so we have to choose between Michigan's coaching staff's general incompetence and the very clear gigantic talent gap between the players on the field? That hardly seems fair or realistic.
But honestly Don, sure. If the fingers have to point in one direction, I'll gladly send the blame your way. I don't need much convincing.
A year ago, your defense allowed the worst defensive performance in Michigan's history in The Game, then after a year of preparation to face that same team with a first-year head coach and a first-year quarterback in your home stadium, it was worse.
Personally, though, I don't really care whose fault it is. All I know is it's getting to the point where I genuinely believe I could mail you Ohio State's playbook and walkthrough and you'd still get your teeth kicked in.
Maybe Ryan Day should try that; it would at least keep things interesting for longer than a quarter.

Why don't we have both?
