    the only thing hinted at is “not structural” which leaves some kind of bone bruise maybe? Or maybe just hyperextend with no damage? So today and going forward seems like a pain maintenance thing. Clearly in the one run he had to cut he wasn’t there

    OSU the last two years is the Peyton Manning Colts, IMO. Everything is so easy for them all year, and then they get to the hard stuff and they don't want to do the work on offense. If you give Harbaugh 5 yards, he'll take for 4 hours and grind out games that bore everyone to death. And there's a downside to that at times that UM fans have seen over the years, but it's what tends to win you games like these. You give OSU 5 yards and they get bored. Eventually, they get antsy and try to make something happen, and if you can stop them from doing it they hang themselves. We've done it to them two years in a row the same way NE used to do it to Indy. OSU ran for almost 150 in the first half and got almost nothing out of it because they couldn't sustain drives that didn't include 40 yard chunks.

    On some level, OSU is almost too talented at the skill positions for their own good the last two years. UM sat there daring OSU to put together long TD drives, and OSU over and over again couldn't do it even though UM didn't touch Stroud until the 4th quarter. And part of that is probably because Michigan is the only team in the B1G that a) isn't afraid of them anymore; and b) can actually force them to play this game for 60 minutes.

    I always wondered if you could pass that “are you a robot test.” You passed.

    Goose being bush league is on brand. Michigan fans fault for letting the losers start the thread.

    Yeah if there is any team that can do what we did, only better, it's Georgia. These 50+ point games against bums has really gotten to their heads

    That’s a balk, advance Ryan Day to third base.
