Michigan is dealing with some injuries and there's rumors of a "bug" going around in Ann Arbor.Every single team is dealing with injuries Week 11 into the season.
I'm thinking Cade McNamara hit more passes over 35 yards by this time last year than JJ has this year so it could get better.do we know that is even true? feel like last year almost all the deep passes they hit were from...JJ. Cade was the definition of mr dink and dunk, captain check down. JJ is averaging more yards per attempt and more yards per completion this year than Cade, so you just might be wrong on that.
so, you're sayin there's a chance?No.
so, you're sayin there's a chance?how is Nebraska at stopping the run? how is the Nebraska OL?
horrible and really horribleyeah, well, then no. lol.
Michigan is favored by 29. Kick-off is at 3:30pm. Michigan needs to stay healthy and keep working on the kinks in the passing game and red zone. Would love for this to be a Donovan Edwards game and have them really feature him.I've been meaning to ask about his. Why has Michigan been having red zone issues of late?
I've been meaning to ask about his. Why has Michigan been having red zone issues of late?play calling in the red zone has been a major issue. they try to get too cute, run reverses or jet sweeps in the fkng red area and lose yards- they do this crap A LOT. they also refuse to throw any jump ball goal line fades- which USED to be a staple of a Michigan offense- yet they refuse to even try it. they refuse to move the pocket and roll out and have JJ throw on the run in the red area- which they did really well last year- recall a couple red zone TDs that were perfect. they refuse to call any designed QB runs in the red area. you need your best stuff, need to get a little creative in the red area to score as field is shorter- or you need to trust your big 6'2+ WR's to go up and make a play on goal line fades- and this idiot coaching staff does neither.
To define issues:
Against Rutgers the Wolverines had two fairly deep penetrations in the first half (not technically red zone) that resulted in missed FG's which is why it was 17-14 RU instead of 28-17 M at the half.
Against MSU in the first half the Wolverines had three Red Zone trips for 13 points. They were dominating the game but only up 13-7 at the half. For the game as a whole the Wolverines had only two TD's and five FG's. It was still a solid 29-7 win but could easily have been a much bigger win.
Against PSU in the first half the Wolverines had one TD and three FG's which is why they only led 16-14 at the half and briefly trailed 17-16 in the third quarter. I realize that they were dominating statistically but this is usually how upsets happen.
This surprises me because usually running teams have less trouble in the red zone. When Ohio State struggled in the Red Zone last year I understood it. When you get close to the end zone the defenders don't have to worry about your WR's burning them deep because the back line of the endzone acts as an extra defender. Running teams don't generally face that problem because they aren't using that part of the field anyway. What gives?
I've been meaning to ask about his. Why has Michigan been having red zone issues of late?No red zone issues in Pisscataway due to Coach Harbaugh's brilliant play calling.

so, you're sayin there's a chance?Considering how tough Nebraska played Michigan in Lincoln last year I'd say there's a chance.
that's what I was afraid of:'(
and the golf course is closed
Nary a word* was said about Nebraska during Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh’s Nebraska-week press conference.Somebody will show Jeem your post,he'll make sure that's corrected.Don't want ya'z playin' the disrespecktin' kard
Anybody with a set of fkng eye balls can see Andrel Anthony is the most talented WR on that roster....and he doesn't play. LMAO.maybe it's JJ that can't see/throw down the field to a potential burner
https://twitter.com/Amie_Just/status/1590035333860638721?s=20&t=JqHwY4Rl1E690B7yeHHclgRemember when Denard Robinson had to come out of the 2012 game in Lincoln due to an injured elbow nerve and Michigan had to play Russell Bellomy? No pity here. At the time I was pretty pissed at Hoke because he said he had two QBs ready to play and that clearly was not the case.
GO BIG RED!!!Thank you for your support.

Mickey in his press conference today says he wants to hand the ball offRead that Nebraska has the #107th ranked rush D in FBS. Michigan has the #1 ranked rush D. Michigan is the 4th ranked rushing O in the FBS. Nebraska rush O is 74th.
good idea w/o yer #1 QB
also good to run clock if you want to beat the 31 point spread
welp, looks like Cade is officially done for the year and not coming back...Cade confirms he's had knee surgery and is done for the year- obviously. He's able to get an extra medical year and he's off to somewhere else in 2023.

Michigan is dealing with some injuries and there's rumors of a "bug" going around in Ann Arbor.Patriots on a bye week? Sounds like Jabrill Peppers is visiting
Nebraska Cornhuskers (2-4, 3-6) at #3 Michigan Wolverines (6-0, 9-0) |
3:30 - Ann Arbor, MI - ABC |
Michigan is absolutely rolling right now. For about 30 seconds after the Maryland win has been the only time anyone questioned them. If there is anything to say right now, they could probably start a little faster. They were tied 10-10 with Indiana midway through the 3rd, and finished on a 21-0 run. They were trailing Penn State 17-16 midway through the 3rd, and finished on a 25-0 run. They were trailing Michigan State 7-3 early in the 2nd, and finished on a 26-0 run. Then last week they trailed Rutgers 17-14 midway through the 3rd, and finished on a 38-0 run. When they turn it on they look as good as anyone in the country, and even early in their sleepwalks, it never looked like they were struggling. I'm not sure Nebraska has much of a shot at full health, but the Huskers already confirmed that starting quarterback Casey Thompson will miss his second straight start. It's a bit of a surprise, because there was some thought he might play last week. Neither replacement option is good. Chubba Purdy has had more opportunities, and on 36 attempts is averaging just 2.5 ypa, on 44% passing, with 3 interceptions. Might as well at least see what you have in Logan Smothers, he has better numbers, albeit on just 11 attempts, and is supposedly the better runner. Unless you just don't want to kill the kid's confidence against this Michigan defense, which has looked better than expected. Trey Palmer, who was looking like a First Team All-Conference receiver with Thompson, has disappeared without him. His last two games were his two worst games of the season. After going off for 297 yards and 2 touchdowns against Purdue 3 weeks ago, Thompson's last game, he has a total of 38 yards in the two games without him. The Husker defense has actually been pretty solid, but when you have an offense that goes up tempo, but only averages about 26 minutes of TOP, the defense is just on the field way too much. I think that side of the ball holds its own for a bit. It's 14-3 or something at halftime, but they eventually wilt. |
MICHIGAN 44, NEBRASKA 3 |
former Wolverine Taylor Lewan and former Cornhusker Will Compton are like BFFs apparently and have a podcast they do together for Barstool Sports called Bussin’ with the Boys.I now think much less of Will Compton
Well turns out they talked to both schools and have created an official trophy for the Nebraska-Michigan game. I present to you, the Bussin’ Bowl trophy.

I now think much less of Will ComptonI didn't think I could think less of Lewan, but here we are.
Blake is a great back and deserves all his accoladesUh dude idk wtf you on but Blake is a speedster. Track kid, was running 4.4's laser in HS. He's got multiple 60+ yard house calls to his resume. He was the fastest kid last year on that gps thing that tracked mph I belive.
I'd guess he's not going to run a 4.4, but he's fast enough
just pray that Harbaugh doesn't ruin the kid and he regresses next seasontrust and believe- praying my ass off for that. Jeem the QB whisperer they said.
