What the critics are saying about the Wolverine's road trip, hostile environment, triple over-time, come back victory:

"Never on the football field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few." W. Churchhill

“For when the One Great Scorer comes to mark against your name, He writes–not that you won or lost–but how you played the Game.” G. Rice

"The Wolverines trailed by 17 in the first half at Rutgers in a game they were favored to win by 9.5 points, against a team they have not lost to since 2014." The Detroit Free Press

“Let’s fucking build on this shit, boys. Let’s get it. What happens if we win out, huh? Who’s gonna remember all the fucking games before (this), man?

“We win out, we did our job. We said we were gonna win out. Let’s fucking do it.” Cade McNamara

"He was outstanding. Really gritty performance. In all ways. Super tough. Executed. Was outstanding. His play was inspiring. Yeah, can’t say enough great things.” J. Harbaugh

"We're back, baby!" M Go Blog

What (sic: are) Michigan's Chances Are To...
FPI also gave out percentage chances of Michigan — and every team in the nation — to win all of their games, win at least six games, win their division, win their conference, make the College Football Playoff, appear in the national title game and win the national championship.

Here are the chances the metric gave the Wolverines to...

Win Out: 0.0 percent

Win 6+ Games: 71 percent

Win The Big Ten East: 2 percent

Win The Big Ten: 0.7 percent

Make The College Football Playoff: 0.0 percent

Make The National Title Game: 0.0 percent

Win The National Championship: 0.0 percent

Where Michigan's Opponents Rank In FPI
Below is a look at Michigan's schedule and where each of its 12 opponents rank in this release of the FPI.

• Western Michigan (Sept. 4) — 77th

• Washington (Sept. 11) — 59th

• Northern Illinois (Sept. 18) — 104th

• Rutgers (Sept. 25) — 79th

• Wisconsin (Oct. 2)* — 15th

• Nebraska (Oct. 9)* — 46th

• Northwestern (Oct. 23) — 30th

• Michigan State (Oct. 30)* — 56th

• Indiana (Nov. 6) — 25th

• Penn State (Nov. 13)* — 10th

• Maryland (Nov. 20)* — 55th

• Ohio State (Nov. 27) — 5th

* True road game

***

Michigan plays five teams that check in ahead of it in the FPI, including No. 5 Ohio State, No. 10 Penn State, No. 15 Wisconsin, No. 25 Indiana and No. 30 Northwestern, making the 2021 schedule a daunting one.The good news for the Wolverines, though, is that they don't play a team ranked higher than them until week five at Wisconsin. Washington (No. 59) is set to be the toughest test in the non-conference.

Brady was a highly recruited guy (they didn't have "stars", back then, but he would have been a high 4 star). He sat for a couple of years, but then when his turn came....the fan base was enamored with this shiny new 5 star recruit (Henson). Claiming he was one of the best QBs to ever come into a college program. Lloyd even had to promise Henson and his dad that he wouldn't recruit another QB, for a couple of years. The problem was....Brady was clearly the better option. Even though Brady started, Henson was getting every other quarter. Every time Henson went in....he put us into bad positions. Brady had to "rescue" us several times. Brady was an excellent QB, at Michigan, but the fans remember him as mediocre. That's only because he had to split time with Henson in his only two years as the starting QB.

I know stats aren't everything, but stats scream "mediocre" to me.

Year School Conf Class Pos G Cmp Att Pct Yds Y/A AY/A TD Int Rate
1996 Michigan Big Ten QB 2 3 5 60.0 26 5.2 -3.8 0 1 63.7
1997 Michigan Big Ten QB 4 12 15 80.0 103 6.9 6.9 0 0 137.7
1998 Michigan Big Ten QB 12 200 323 61.9 2427 7.5 7.0 14 10 133.1
1999 Michigan Big Ten QB 11 180 295 61.0 2217 7.5 7.7 16 6 138.0

2 years as "starter", and he got 30 TD, 16 interceptions. I'm not buying the "excellent" adjective.

They rode Patterson to an undefeated Conference record until the game against OSU.....where he got injured (OSU scored 21 more points, after Shea left the game).

*Note (not QB related): Devin Bush, Rashan Gary, and David Long also got hurt in that second half. Chase Winovich was hurt the game before*

Is he saying that injuries are the cause of 62-39?

The SUMMER OF TRASH piece is a fine example of a fan base thats completely lost its fucking mind :lol:

In the comments someone suggested a move to maizenbrew.com

Took a gander and saw some HUGE news.

https://www.maizenbrew.com/michigan...lass-hayden-schwartz-defensive-line-shaun-nua

A major target along the defensive line has scheduled an official visit to Michigan, as 2022 three-star Hayden Schwartz will be in Ann Arbor the weekend of June 4.

“I have Michigan set for (June) 4-6 and am setting up a couple others,” Schwartz told Maize n Brew Tuesday afternoon.

The 6-foot-4, 250-pounder hails from Jacksonville, Florida. He was offered by the Wolverines back in January and has been a primary target along the defensive line ever since. Shaun Nua and George Helow are tag-teaming this recruitment.
