I like how Plesac was the SP all three times the Indians were no hit

I am impressed with Michigan.
Washington has a really good defense. I was impressed with how Michigan ran on them, despite having a pathetic passing attack. Washington was loading the box to stop the run as they rightfully didn't respect Michigan's pathetic passing attack, and they still couldn't stop Michigan from running down their throat.

Blake Corum is the first RB at Michigan that's actually good that has a lot of speed in oh- 20 years or so. Haskins is what he's always been- a solid power runner- and his thunder to Corum's lighting compliments each other extremely well.

The offensive play-calling was predictable and a joke. Harbaugh STILL cannot develop a modern passing game or elite level QB. It's freaking infuriating. Not that I think McNamara sucks or anything- I just think he's basically mediocre. And that's a HUGE improvement over the QB play under Harbaugh minus the first year with Jake Rudock. I'd like to see JJ McCarthy get a shot- but I'm almost worried that Harbaugh will just waste/ruin JJ as well.

Michigan with a strong opening bid for inept offense. 3rd AND 4th and goal from an inch out and stuffed solid.
don't get me started. The booger eater is heavily involved in that offense/play-calling. Gattis is OC in name only.

I find it amusing more than anything. Like those Michigan fans that want to run off Harbaugh in order to bring in this guy, who is basically the same dude minus the Super Bowl run.

I'd like Harbaugh gone, but not for Campbell.

What the hell was that defense on the final play?

BYU is up 16-7 at the half, vs the Utes. 

Utah has a 9 game winning streak in the series.

Chris Evans was fast, he just couldn't get his head out of his own ass

and Notre Dame barely survives Toledo after barely surviving Florida State. I kinda figured Florida State sucked and maybe it was a red flag that ND didn't drill them.

Maybe ND isn't so good this year?

He was fast, but Corum definitely looks a good bit faster. And Corum is much more physically built/stout. Corum is short, but his legs and arms are massive and he can run between the tackles and get tough yards. Evans was very slight/slender and went down on contact too easily and wasn't always the best between the tackles. Corum is a much better pure runner. 

Evans did have his head up his ass quite a bit, but he was also very underutilized and misused. That kid should've been splitting time at slot WR and RB and used in a WR/RB/KR/PR hybrid role how OSU used Curtis Samuels. That was much more his game than RB imo. He was a phenomenal route runner and natural pass catcher.

Having a head coach, or QBs coach, or offensive coordinator, who was a QB is advantageous. It is why Iowa's offense is off-kilter. It is why I have been surprised Michigan hasn't been developing QBs like Purdue did in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, and beyond.

I didn't see the Jacksonville St @ FSU game, but FSU has had serious problems on the O-Line now for about the 5th year, and I could take an educated guess that's where the principal problem lies tonight.
