The Chryst offense throws very few balls that travel 35+ yards in the air. It was 30-0 when Cephus received the first one of those against CMU. If that's your metric, zero wouldn't surprise me, nor would it tell me anything about the game's outcome.

You're operating on a hunch about something that literally wasn't said.
Again for the challenged


"I dug quite a bit, trying to find anyone from UW talking. I can't find anything after Chris Orr's tweet about "bring that silly talk to Madison" in response to another Michigan school's comments.

There's been a lot of Easterly winds coming off The Lake the past few weeks. Probably a coincidence.

On a more serious note, why say anything at all? Saying you want to "make a statement" is silly. Of course the kid's not going to say anything like "we're headed to Madison so we can shit the bed" or some such. So just STFU and play football.

Get off my lawn."

Comments like that are pretty much the norm except coming your web address.You've either not watched the video or care to admit it's intent.Even your Fan Forums have brought it up.Shot fired across the bow is pretty much the consensus.Again why would Shea clam up when asked what it meant if it was so innocuous

So easy to understand even a caveman or a Brusquely adamant/stubborn M Fan should get it - ON WISCONSIN

That's all I was looking for. In the last two games, it felt like this was a key new ability that -- if it stuck v. M, PSU, OSU -- could evolve the offense's deadliness to a 40-point unit versus anyone.

Needless to say, I haven't been as ready as you to predict all scores around or below the 20s.

The biggest bummer for me in this game is that my cousin scheduled her wedding at 2PM. It's in a small coastal town in northern Michigan, but all the rest is a drag. Still not sure how to navigate the issue.

In case any UW fans want to know whether Michigan blogs properly understand your O/D structure/personnel, here's one author's attempt at capturing it all:

Holland? Traverse City? Petoskey?

Is Northern Michigan not the UP? Or is the UP simply a different country?

No.   UP is a separate place.

Harbor Springs is more like the Traverse City/Petoskey area. So HB wins this lotto. Not the UP, then, but another cool/naturey part of the state. Maybe more vacation economy than I like, but as "downsides" go, I'll def take it.

 That whole area is spectacular and beautiful. Especially this time of year. I was just up there for a four day weekend on my annual golf trip with the dudes I played ball with back in the 70s if you can believe that

That's pretty cool about the old team. I'm gearing up now for my first hockey beer league and it's made me think more than ever about getting the old team together for a bar night. As for the north, I bet we're 3 (maybe more weeks) from peak fall colors here in southern Indiana. I'm excited to see how far ahead of us Harbor Springs is. Weather permitting, I'll also take the wife to Sleeping Bear on Sunday. That'll be my first return since I was a teen.
