Now that the glow of the game has started to fade, it's time to think about the future.

And to be frank, I'm a little worried. There has been something off with JT's arm all season. On top of that, the OL was getting roasted most of the game. We lose the same way that MSU did, if we play Alabama in the playoffs the way we played on offense today.

You can never count out Urban, but I really can't imagine a winning playoff scenario in which JT cannot complete a pass over 10 yards.

Anyways, go Bucks - hope I'm wrong.

Was a hell of the game. Congrats. Not going to blame the refs (even though they sucked) because Michigan made too many mistakes. The running into the punter was huge because Michigan would have had the ball in great position (around the 40 I think). Michigan forced another 3 and out and the 2nd punt pins Michigan inside the 10. Then the pick 6 came. The face mask on the screen was huge. Michigan would have had ball near midfield. The other pick plus the penalties put the ball inside the Michigan 5 for an easy OSU TD. Michigan fumbles inside the OSU 5. The Hill PI on Samuel when he didn't have to hold would have forced a huge 4th down. He wasn't going to catch that ball but it was the right call. Just too many fucking mistakes. OSU only had 3 good drives. The first drive along with the last two. Michigan's D could not have done anything else especially the D line. They really only gave up 3 points. This loss will hurt for awhile. I remember losing 42-7 back in 2008 and I was like eh, whatever. Got over it in a couple of minutes. This one will take a few days.

Both defenses played their asses off by the way. I really believe these are the top defenses in the country along with Alabama. Maybe we will go to the Rose. Anyways, gg.
zwem, you're one of the good ones. Most of your sorry-assed compadres need to STFU. I never wished death on any dUMb player during the seemingly unending Cooper years. And Coop never bitched about the refs. Just pathetic.

Gonna be Debbie Downer and just say, Prince needs to step his game up going forward. His lateral movement needs some work as I saw at least 4 times today the defender getting the better of him on the outside.
Sometimes he deserved it, sometimes not. They had a good gameplan to force JT into the pocket and then bring their backer who was spying him on the delay. that looked like 5 guys bumrushing through but it was four with one unblocked. The DE on Prince' side was sprinting off the ball and Prince forced him out and around, all he could do but the other guys didnt hold up in the middle or JT might have had a running lane underneath. They have to get it done as a unit. When we started running to the edge, *ahem, it slowed that rush and JT found some passing lanes late.

They all need to fix the problems of course, but they gutted out the ridiculous W.

I don't think I'll pull thru. Funeral will probably be The or Wed. There will be food. Don't hit on my wife.

Harbaugh has become a whiner about officiating. I'm sure he has a nice fine coming which he lustily earned. I guess he couldn't blame Speight - who we couldn't have won without his help.

Interesting that fans who whine about the refs, esp off holding, seem to not mind it not getting called on their guys. The spot on 4th and 1 was really close. It was reviewed and stood, so? The one PI call and one non-call were debatable but not outrageous, but even if they were, officiating is at best something that gives you a break, and at worst something you have to overcome. Coaches and players collectively make thousands of decisions during a game. Officials make a few dozen. Players and coaches win and lose games. Lost some respect for Harbaugh for stooping to that and sounding like a 12 year old on a message board.
