Jesus. Stop them on 4th down and get a defensive hold. WTF.
I don't know about that call. That's how I want us playing defense.

I hear you. It's funny. After years of wanting more pizazz, all I want on offense is to run the bread and butter. Ruthlessly. Over and over. The bread and butter (Charbonnet up the middle, RPO for 10-15 and play action) is almost 100% of what we need this year.
Who makes these stupid ass personnel decisions? The kid is a LB’er or a FB. At best. Probably not even worth a scholarship. WHY THE F@&! do they insist on giving him RB carries? Harbaugh is an idiot when it comes to personnel.

Purdue and Vandy pixies at 7-7 after Purdue misses a 42 yard FG. Neither team looking particularly crisp. Vandy scored after a big broken coverage put them inside the 5, and Purdue had only put together one decent drive so far, and even then they've been marred by bad drops by the WR. Still no semblance of a running game.

No! After a collision or independent of one?
No contact.

Outside of the one busted coverage, Purdue looking better on defense though.

I think independent of one. They weren't showing replays.
If you rewind it you can see it. It was just as play started. Really scary. No contact. They carted him off. He was up and awake though not sure how aware. Very scary.

I don't feel like being a sober fan right now.

But ...

If I did ...

That version of me would remember that Michigan is averaging 6 yards/play and Army is getting 3.7. That ref failure was huge, to call back the Michigan TD by Metellus.

Dobbins finally makes a big play. 21-0. Had been some grumbles about him but he's looking good today.

If this 1st down isn't a TD, I think you have to call time out.

This is a dumb team. They are coached by a dumb guy. Teams often take on the character of their head coach. Dumb and undisciplined and unhinged are the words that come to mind when describing this team and it’s coach.

Purdue marches down to score. 14-7.

Sindelar started very badly this game, missing throws. Starting to look in sync. He did make a throw to Bell in double coverage that wasn't dangerous if thrown perfectly and potentially an interception otherwise. Thankfully it was thrown perfectly.
