What was exposed?

Michigan is a much improved team from last year and Robinson seems to be the most obvious reason. He still had an exceptional game in defeat and he delivered the ball where it needed to be most of the time.

Hats off to Sparty. Dantonio finally has a balanced team with offense and defense and he's very quietly shoved it down "Big Bro's throat.' They've improved over all and now I'd like to see Iowa beat them.

Just thoughts: How about the Bucks (undefeated) vs Nebraska (undefeated) in the NC game. Welcome to the Big 10 and the flying finger of fate to the Big 8, 12,10.

first 2 picks killed us but how can you say we have improved? Denard will get better throwing the ball, but it won't matter with this defense. Maybe Michigan has improved, but it's not much. The defense is worse this year than last year. At least Michigan and a one man wreaking crew named Graham that held Sparty down somewhat last year. 500+ yards of offense for Sparty this year.

Only difference is that Michigan might get to a bowl game this year.

It's his schtick. Before we were all offbase for saying we needed to see him do it against a better defense.

Michigan State played well on d and not going to take anything away from them. Michigan had 4-5 easy drops and Denard threw those 2 picks when the Michigan wrs beat their men as well as an open Stonum in the end zone that he missed early in the game. Props to the Michigan St. d, but a few mental errors with Michigan.

I'm no longer referring to them as the "All In" crowd. They are now the "All Dumb" crowd.

If you can't see what's right in front of you, then you're "dumb". This M*ch*g*n team was all smoke and mirrors since day one. Denard Robinson is a fine player, but when your receivers look like they couldn't catch a cold, when your defense can't stop teams with only 65 scholarships, and when your offense is a one man show, you're not a very good team. Period. Now that we've seen them play someone that actually has the athletes that they believed they had, we see what happens. Not even close.

Nothing surprising about today's results if you've been paying attention. The fact that many of the M*ch*g*n posters over at that board think it was a "tossup" game but for a few plays, or was just an "off day", just shows me why they need to be called the "All Dumb" crowd...They don't have the personnel to compete with teams like MSU that have talent all over the field.

Far be it from me to keep a wolverine fan from seeing the light at the end of a tunnel. In my mind this is a better team than a year ago, but hardly a "Bo" worthy edition, but ask yourself the big question: Did you get to a bowl game last year?

Or the year before last?

Oh, and no, I don't feel your pain.
