I'm digging ESPN3. Woke up this morning and started watching some of the games that I missed. Watching the Jax State - Miss game now.

[Whit]

to the Mich fans:

i eat crow.

I talked a lot of shit. i was confident overall but i had worries about Frazer throwing the ball but never once did i worry about our defense. i was clearly mistaken. your oline was very good today and i thought RRod called a great game.

oh yeah and Robinson is pretty good too

Thanks D, I thought it was a great game, dropped passes killed the Huskies, good luck this season.

his high school numbers from his senior year

Completed 200 of 288 pass attempts for 2,924 yards and 35 touchdowns with three interceptions through 15 games and a state championship.

The senior rushed for 1,141 yards on 153 carries scoring 18 touchdowns.


state champ, mr alabama, those numbers... something doesnt add up

His hometown is about 20-30 minutes from JSU. He played 4A ball. 5A and 6A guys typically the ones that get the bigger schools looking at them. Very few guys below 5A in Alabama get rides to FBS schools, 5 or 6 a year, max.

Why are all the Michigan fans so quiet around here?

I'd love to hear what they are thinking after calling for Rrod's head.

granted it may be early but I wonder how long it take them to come around on the guy and realize, ok - he's not a great coach in terms of being able to utilize any players and make them work but once he gets "his guys" in place and can run the type of offense/defense he wants to run he's outstanding.

Robinson defintely looks like a Pat White and the line looked good vs uconn. if the line holds up their level of play and next year (after success this year(, he can get a Slaton or killer HB...Michigan will be back and very quickly

imo

Homer Note: Yes, Oklahoma may beat us...ok..prolly will beat us but its fucking exciting as shit to be going into the game actually thinking we have a chance.

OU looked mortal, Florida did also.

we could very well finish 6-6 but fucking exciting as shit right now to be a nole and at least have optimism back

Go noles

[shel311]

we could very well finish 6-6

I know the feeling.

[Cnasty]

least have optimism back

Isnt it a great feeling??

I am so excited about the Canes offense all the weapons they have. D still worries me with a weak and thin secondary but the offensive is fun as hell to watch.

The Buckeyes could dominate our young line but I see us making some big plays on offense. Its all going to be about the momentum early and setting the tone.If the Canes get down a couple scores in the Shoe, its over before it started.

P.S.-Yes ESPN3 is GOAT. The mosaic view is UNREAL and if you just want to watch one game its like HD quality on your laptop.

Sorry Shel...

lol the majority of michigan fans are 30+ and at the games its more like 40+ so they are all much harder to turn around because they know only old school style michigan. it was funny before the game the old guys talking about hating rich and blah blah, then after the first quarter saying hes a genius. and im not worried about rbs, shaw and smith both looked real good, but didnt get much of a shot since denard was so effective. and i totally feel the same way about your last statement, it just feels great to know your team has a chance in every game this season

i mean this without any sour grapes as i've already admitted Mich was the better team yesterday.

but yesterday didn't prove anything to me about Michigan other then the Mich oline is good enough to beat up on smaller dlines and when Robinson gets to the 2nd level in open space he's deadly.

they wont be anywhere near that effective against better teams. i mean after the 1st quarter, they weren't that effective until the fumble totally deflated UConn.

when Michigan has to play from behind or even and they can't mix the quick hitting passes and runs all game cause they have to go vertical, then we will see how good they really are.

its clearly a great start for Mich fans and much better then a loss, but i wasn't sold at all. Uconn beat themselves (by dropping 2 open passes inside the 5 yard line and fumbling another one at the 5), the mich oline beat the UConn dline to shreds and Robinson is a beast when givin space... thats all i saw in the game.

i remember us saying the same thing last season around this time lets hope they can keep it up

[shel311]

I say Miami and LSU win the same amount of games this year, 8-4.

Exactly.

Either its going to be a ridiculously awesome season and all this talent finally puts it all together or its going to be a sub par season like Shel stated.

If its the latter I just wont understand it with how much talent is on this team.

[fsupenguin]

I say Miami and LSU win the same amount of games this year, 8-4.

But Miami has an offense, and LSU plays in the SEC. 8 wins for LSU? I think 6 is more likely, maybe 7.

I have some problems with it on IE. I kept popping an error every time it went to commercial and I'd have to restart the feed. I disabled all my add-ons but it would still error every once in a while. Going to try to watch the TT-SMU game on Google Chrome.

Eh. We already got 1. Vandy/Miss St/McNeese/ULM/Ole Miss. That could be 6 right there. I'm not very confident about our season, but I highly doubt we'll lose all the tough games, WVU/Bama/UF/Arkansas/Tennessee/Auburn.

I can see 7-5, but I really can't possibly see 6-6.

Remember, our offense was ranked 112th or something last year, and we still won 9 games.

And i'd say Miami's schedule is probably equally as tough as LSU's this year, there schedule, well both teams schedules' are brutal.

Games run a TON better on Google Chrome than IE. Anybody that watches ESPN3 should download it.

i;ve never been against richrod, i knew this was coming... hes got it done everywhere. i thot Forcier would still be the starter but Robinson is absolutely deadly now that he can throw.


Craig Roh is a fucking animal... guy beat his tackle on the regular. DBs werent really tested though, and there were open WRs so they arent there yet.


i though they could start 6-0.... Uconn and ND scared me the most about that prediction, 1 is down.

roh was a step away from a sack on almost every pass play, animal. and our dbs played better than i thought they would but man was there wide open recievers all over the field. thankfully for us frazer sucks balls and the recievers were even worse, minus that lucky one.
