And yet DBs drop passes like that all the time, because they're not WRs.  Catching it would have been the strange and unusual thing. Dropping it was the normal and expected thing.
OSU DB who is nowhere near as good as Moten is- made a way better, tougher INT/play than Moten would've had to make- and his stopped Michigan from going up 14-0. 

the winner of this game- makes those type of game changing plays. Michigan's players just point blank do not make those plays in this series- and it's why they ALWAYS lose this game. 

This is looking no different.

tOSU DB read your QBs eyes and that ball went straight to him.  It was a good play by the DB but a super-easy catch to make.

You're asking your players to make plays that are completely uncharacteristic.  You should start by asking your players to convert on the high percentage plays, which so far they're doing okay but not great.

Michigan setting up for the kind of loss that will test and stretch Dot's ability to use both all caps and aggressive profanity about college kids.

why the F do they put JJ in for 1 play here or there. I HATE IT. GIVE THE KID A DAMN SERIES.

Corum is clearly hurt- he doesn't have the explosion he usually has. He's not exploding through the LOS like he usually does. IF he's still hurt- which makes sense- high ankle sprains are nagging and last for 4-8 weeks before player is fully 100% healed - then they need to be playing Edwards.
High ankle sprains SUCK.

Heh.  

I mean, I get it.  My team sucks arse and has lost to its bitter archrival at almost the same rate over the past 16 games.  I know how it feels.  Venting on the internet doesn't help, but it's something that happens anyway.

already know these guys are going to lose. they blew their wads early and missed every big game changing opportunity they had to pull away.

Cade doesn't throw that INT and Moten just catches the damn ball it's very likely 21-10 Michigan at the half.

BUT....these guys don't make the plays to win...which is why it's 14-13, OSU gets the ball to open the half and they are about to get ass blasted in the 2nd half. Seen this movie way too many times.

Michigan leads at halftime.  It ain’t enough but its all I could ask for at this point.

49-0 didn’t happen at any rate.

check the scores at the halfs in this game past 5-6 years- always been pretty close. it's the 2nd half where they get run out of the stadium under Harbaugh.

Michigan flat out does not make the game changing plays to pull away in this one- never do. Haven't seen 2003. It's been literally 18 years.

yeah- and it's only been 2-3 weeks. He needs at least 6 before he's close to 100%. shouldn't even be playing right now- Edwards is more than capable back and a huge threat in the pass game.

if Blake is 100% that's a TD.

that was as physical a drive as I've seen all year by that M OL. They just bullied OSU down the field. Those RB's had gaping holes.
