While I despise that team. You have to be able to stop the run. I am not sure the right way to do it. But as a man tOSU defense has to take this personally. Because as was just saw they will just keep the ball on the ground the whole game. They threw like 1 or 2 passes the whole second half. Let that sink in. That is 1970s style football. So it starts there. Not to mention the defense is solid. I am still not sold that JJ is any good.

My guess is that they play a 4-3 with Styles at nickel and hopefully Proctor back. That gives them versatility and they can even move into a 4-4 with Styles as the 4th backer.

While you are technically correct (which is the best kind of correct), they actually threw 0 passes in the second half.

While you are technically correct, in that there were zero passes of record in the 2nd half, the CUNTS did attempt a pass on first down from their own 42 in the 4th quarter. There was a BS* PI call that rendered it officially NO PLAY




*all calls in the CUNTS’ favor are BS calls

Eh I think it’s more the Penn State offense that let them down yesterday. You’ve got to stay on the field vs Michigan otherwise that run game will wear you down late.

Penn State was just never put in a good place by their offense. Including two bad turnovers that left Michigan with short fields.

Really just Allar. I've never seen such an inaccurate QB. Run game was gashing Scum, receivers were open. When Allar did see them, he was horribly off target.

Similar to basketball-you shoot the opponent out of a packed in zone.

A big part of the reason 1980's man ball offenses died is that teams with superior skill starting passing the ball effectively and, as a result, scoring more than those kind of teams could keep up with.

To me, it's a two part thing. Yes, you have to hold up at the point of attack on defense but you can help your defense out A LOT by scoring 35+. Manball offenses are really only built to play with a lead. They are the worst possible choice to play from behind with.

Agree. It's a tall order, but they absolutely have to get a lead quickly and put up 35+.

Part of me remembers a great gameplan in the first half last season and thinks they can figure out a way to do it. The other part is cynical, has zero trust in those cheating fucks, and I'm not sure McCord and especially the OL are good enough to execute.

Spare us the drama, Michigan — your ‘challenges and adversity’ are self-inflicted​

Most of us have seen the brief clip of Sherrone Moore breaking down on the field during his postgame interview following Michigan’s win at Penn State on Saturday afternoon. It was intense.

In case you haven’t, the Michigan offensive coordinator-turned-acting head coach started bawling on television. He began by thanking God, then proceeded to profess his love to Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh — with the help of a few F-Bombs. Moore thanked university president Santa Ono, athletic director Warde Manuel, his players and the school’s alumni. But the most pointed message was directed at Harbaugh.

“I f—— love you, man, ” Moore said to Harbaugh through the television cameras. “I love the s— out of you, man. We did this for you.”

Sherrone Moore's post game interview is everything. Chills



It’s understandable why Moore would be so emotional. He was thrust into this role for the second time this year, and this time it was done at the 11th hour. Michigan was on the plane to State College when the news broke that Harbaugh would be suspended amid this cheating probe. The Wolverines were playing on the road against a one-loss Penn State team still trying to claw its way into the Big Ten Championship Game.

Despite all of that, Michigan unequivocally proved it was the better team and handed Penn State a demoralizing 24-15 loss.

Nobody is telling Moore not to be emotional. It was his team and his players who won a hard-fought game on the road. They should be ecstatic. And Michigan fans have every right to feel an extra sense of pride in their team.

But the rest of us? Let’s not let the tears and the emotion emanating from Moore and the rest of this Michigan team blind us from one inarguable truth: This is Michigan’s fault.

Moore acted as though Harbaugh were in the hospital or dealing with some sort of tragedy outside of his control. No. Harbaugh was down the street from Beaver Stadium sitting at the hotel and watching the Michigan game on television.

Michigan may say it’s winning for Harbaugh while wearing shirts that read “Michigan vs. Everybody,” but this situation isn’t the Wolverines fighting through adversity or winning in spite of some terrible, random circumstance. Michigan is paying a consequence for breaking the rules, and there’s an ongoing investigation into this sign-stealing scandal to see how deep it goes. Some may tell you it was a marginal competitive advantage, but others will tell you the Wolverines were flat-out cheating to win games this year and in the past.

Michigan isn’t a heart-warming story as it fights a legal battle to get its coach back on the sidelines in time for the Ohio State game in two weeks. This is the Big Ten holding the program accountable for transgressions, levying a penalty on the head coach as the figurehead of the entire program.

Ono, the university’s president, posted to his public X account (formerly Twitter) Sunday morning: “Countless members of the University of Michigan family have reached out to me over the weekend and I wanted to express my appreciation. Like any community, we face our share of challenges and adversity. There have been many such moments in our history. But as our team showed so clearly yesterday, we will respond to any challenge head on with a conviction to do better and to emerge even stronger. Go Blue!”

Challenges and adversity? I guess so, if challenges and adversity can be self-inflicted. That’s the type of social media post you’d expect from a university president after a tragedy.
