Re: #15 Michigan (2-0, 4-1) at USC (2-1, 4-1) Game Week

Michigan’s OL and DL were beat.  They put QB #2 Davis in at the end.  He was impressive in that he was on the field less than a minute, I would guess, and managed to fumble and throw an interception in that time.

Every game is a scrimmage now to get ready for the Saturday after Thanksgiving.
A decade of Victory over Penn State.

absolutely pathetic performance all around. Sherrie Moore needs to be fired. Today. 

Buyout is only $13 mil. Portnoy get Ellison on the phone and make it happen.

Had to record the game and watch it this morning. Michigan is a terribly coached team. Both offensively and defensively.

Their formations defensively in the first half when USC was throwing in the middle and quick, short passes, they have dbs 10-15 yards off the line. Why? Beyond stupid. USC ran the same running play 3 straight times for massive game changing gains and scores.

Offensively I’m disgusted. People can knock on underwood and in some instances rightfully so because he missed some passes, but how is any qb going to have success when on first down they run every single damn time. Then they have plays where Semaj Morgan motions around in the back field two different directions and they run up the middle. Do they seriously think that’s misdirection? It looks like a circus. Let’s run around a guy in the backfield for no impact so it’s 10 v 11.

Michigan is not a good football team. Not well coached and their secondary is awful along with their linebackers ability to tackle. Maybe Davis Warren didn’t suck, maybe the play calling was so bad he didn’t even have a chance. I have an idea, maybe roll out Underwood. The kid isn’t a pocket old school qb, so why force him to be one? The sad part is there’s talent on this team, but completely misused and some of the players on the field shouldn’t be. Start with Morgan. Perfect example of how terrible the coaching staff is.. Semaj has the most drops as a receiver and you have him as your punt returner. Brains don’t work in Ann Arbor.

Michigan has great talent. The coaching is terrible - like uke ickell terrible. Talent can only overcome so much.

Well Ellison is paying what 4-5 ex wives and I'm sure he's a rung or two up the social ladder than the wet mop Portnoy,doubt that he's on speed dial

Couldn't get the game on NBC with my OTA antenna - that worked fine all week and wouldn't come in so i listened to it on radio like 94 out of Detroit. And that Andrew Marsh sounded like he had a game, the announcers seemed happy with him

terribly coached team. Moore is in way over his head. Guy has never been nothing more than an OL coach and was a glorified Co-OC who didn't call the pass plays and everyone knows Jeem really ran that offense. Michigan isn't the kind of job where you just learn on the fly. Buddy is giving me major Gary Moeller/Brady Hoke vibes. What makes it worse is this dipshit loves to run his mouth before games- see his comments before Oklahoma and USC- and then takes his teams on the road and has them completely unprepared.

the fact that you got physically man-handled by a Lincoln Riley coached USC team and let them run for 230 yards down your throat with all backup RB's should speak volumes about how shitty of a coach you are.

brother the man has a $393 billion dollar net worth. that's billion with a b. pretty sure he could write a check to buy Moore out and not feel it.

Ellison and his new wife contacted Portnoy and that's how they got Underwood. Ellison was the money guy behind that NIL deal.

What’s weird as everyone claiming Michigan has not talent at receiver. McCulley has talent when he is used correctly. Marsh clearly is talented. Morgan shouldn’t be on the field yet they try to make him a focal point. Suddenly they don’t know how to use a tight end in the offense. Again, coaching is the problem.

he's got to go. Wink Martindale was a terrible hire as well for DC. Yeah let's hire a washed up NFL DC who got fired in disgrace at his last two NFL jobs because he couldn't keep his dick in his pants and had the highest blitz rate of any DC in the NFL and his defenses gave up more big plays than just about any in the league. 
 
Said it before and I'll say it again....the wrong Co-Ordinator got the job at Michigan. Jesse Minter should've been the guy. Jeem knew what he was doing taking Jesse Minter with him to the NFL and leaving Sharon behind. 

Look at Michigan's last two DC's before Wink. Mike McDonald is an NFL head coach and Jesse Minter has been arguably the best DC in the NFL the last season and a half and is going to be an NFL head coach in 2026. 

Warde Manuel fucked up. Should've threw a whole bag at Jesse Minter and offered him the HC job.

100%. 

McCulley can play. He's a legit B1G starting caliber WR- certainly as good or better than Cornelius Johnson or Roman Wilson imo- who Michigan won a title with. I'd argue he's better than Johnson and just a notch below Wilson. 

Andrew Marsh is a burgeoning star. He was a super highly rated recruit for a reason and you're already seeing why. He flashes his talent and in 2 starts so far he's looked the part. 

Yet this dumbass coaching staff spent the first 4 games of the season trying to feature Semaj Morgan in the slot instead of force feeding McCulley targets downfield- and make Semaj a focal point of the offense and oh yeah they were playing Channing Goodwin over Andrew Marsh. Lol.
