Makes sense. I guess what I meant wasn't how'd they screw up the end, but the whole game. MSU stinks, I'd have thought that even an average Mich squad would have been up by 21 at halftime. I know next year is when we're expected to really "come back" as a good team, but I had high hopes for this year. I'm really hoping for 8 wins at least.

Ya MSU really stinks, that explains the negative rushing yards and less than 100 yards of total offense heading into the 4th quarter.

They're MSU. They could go 12-0 and I'd still say they stink. But going into this game and with their record you wouldn't say they stunk?

Clausen just hands the Huskies a free TD with an idiotic screen pass attempt.

14-9 UW.

I'd say they played poorly against CMU, lost on a last second play to a ND team that UM beat on a last second play, and showed up flat against Wisco. Against the only common opponent the result was pretty similar, either game could have gone the other way easily.

How much MSU football have you even watched this year? You didn't even see todays game for crying out loud.

I'll do what you can't and give UM credit, that's a pretty solid football team and they'll be really good next year. They couldn't move the ball at all for 3 quarters but they stepped it up in the 4th, I was impressed. The game could have gone either way, those are two pretty evenly matched teams and it was sure fun to watch.

Ahh, the "how much football have you watched comment" Sigh.

Watched them lose to Central Michigan. Watched them vs ND, and watched the Wisconsin game as well. Perhaps later I can go into a play by play examination of their games, but I won't. I hate MSU. I hate Ohio State. I didn't expect Michigan to go undefeated this year, but from their performances and Tate Forcier's progression game to game I expected them to perform better against a Michigan State team that I considered just as good as their record.

valo403 · 10-03-2009, 03:13 PM

I hate Michigan, but I can give credit where it's due. Glad to see that your not capable of pulling that one out. Sigh.

BTW, there was nothing fluky about that pick in OT, Forcier gunned it off one DB into the hands of another. Would've been lucky to see it hit the ground, just like the lob he threw up into the endzone 2 plays before the touchdown at the end. Don't get me wrong, he's been impressive and made a lot of plays today, but that was just a poor decision.

lets keep it simple, the other designs a an avater and sig for the other to use, it has to be related to the teams in question, and nothing too stupid or distasteful!

Nothing fluky?

The defender randomly threw up his arm and it bounced in the air where anyone could have got it and the MSU defender still barely caught the ball.

It was a fluky an INT as you can get.

And I am no Michigan fan but when your team is 2-3 with a win over a 1aa school and an OT victory over a mediocre Michigan team with 3 losses to medicore-bad teams, then it isn't out of line for people to say you stink.

LOL, you're joking right? He forced a ball into double coverage and it's a fluky pick? Hilarious. So by that standard any pick that comes off a deflection is fluky? The WR was covered, the ball was gunned at the DB and popped into the air. That's a poor decision/throw, not a fluke.

And there's a difference between a team that has played like crap for 2 of 4 games and a team that just plain stinks. Every team has bad games, and MSU had some key areas that were going to take time. I just find it hilarious to see UM fans acting like this should have been a walk when the two teams are pretty darn close.

I said it was a poor pass earlier. You can have a bad pass and still have it be a fluke INT.

Any pick that bounces that high/far after a DB randomly throws out his arm like that is a fluke.

Sounds good , but ill have to ask CP to help with a sooners avatar... I am not that tech savvy!

carom · 10-03-2009, 04:46 PM

Georgia touchdown! How is this going to end?

nickerjones · 10-03-2009, 04:47 PM

Looks like FLorida wont need Tebow next week against LSU ...... I guess the Florida.E.C really is just a two team conference .....

corporatejay · 10-03-2009, 04:48 PM

What was that penalty for? Didn't look like he did anything.

corporatejay · 10-03-2009, 04:53 PM

Haha, wow. Crazy thing is I think Georgia has a timeout left and they're going to get the ball back with a lot of time.

transplant99 · 10-03-2009, 04:57 PM

i HATE the celebration rule...its stupid, petty and completely penalizes a team far far too much for the damn infraction. Just goofy.

carom · 10-03-2009, 04:57 PM

Those penalty calls for celebration were pretty weak.
