***Official 2020 Michigan Football*** (2 Viewers)

This season is already a great success, but it sure would be sweet to see them knock off Sparty and/or OSU.
not holding my breath for the W in either. Competition from the start to the finish will be a nice change of pace. Sad it's gotten to that...really sad. Good thing is, I see brighter days ahead :thumbup:

 
We will certainly see LAUNCH. I never realized until just a week or two ago, the damage done to my Michigan psyche by RR and Hoke. I'm just waiting for the inevitable implosion I've been so accustomed to the last decade.

I won't believe we are actually good unless we win this weekend. Until then, I'm just expecting a 27-6 loss.

To be clear, it doesn't really matter who the opponent is. I've felt the same uncertainty every single game this year (well, except maybe UNLV) and will probably continue to feel that way even if they get a W this weekend.

 
Here's my concern

i am not sure the talent level is as high as how we have seen them play. I love this team and i am very happy, but i keep waiting for them to falter because i am not sure all the talent is there, though i am sure with Harbaugh it is coming.

I'd LOVE to get a win this week, and i am optimistic (but worried)

A concern for me as well. All I can hold on to is these guys were pretty highly rated by all accounts. I'd like to think they didn't improve because of coaching. It helps me sleep at night ;)

I've been sleeping great since Hoke left town.

Only a matter of time before kids flock to a UM anyway.

Not sure how well he fits Harbaugh's system but we need playmakers. Would be a slot back I would think over the Deveon Smith type RB.
I read a Todd Gurley comparison. I'm not seeing slot back in the video I watched.

Maybe I have him confused with some others.

I watched a few targets as they decide but once they commit elsewhere I generally forget about them.

We could use one of those!!!

 
Just watched his junior highlights.

Seems ok, but we don't get to see much of him lowering his shoulder and plowing into people. I would agree with the assessment he can change directions at full speed ala Gurley.

I see elusive much more than power. Hair reminds me of Gurley more than running style. Elite ability to cut and accelerate though. Looks special.

 
Antonio Williams just decommitted from from Wisconsin, so this looks good to go.

Almost gametime

Looks like the two injured OL for MSU are gonna give it a go.

Drake Johnson is good to go...No clue on De'veon yet.

 
Northwestern is getting crushed at home vs Iowa.

I think it will be a FG game today, team making fewer turnovers probably wins. Looking forward to it though, didn't think they had any chance in this game when the season started.

 
So. How do they look?
Sparty can't run, modest success through the air. Worried about the big play and the loss of Bolden, who was ejected for a bull #### targeting call.Offense is having problems up front. Success so far has been via misdirection.

Biggest reason we are winning is because of special teams.

well that sucks. What are the problems? Over matched? Execution?
Unfortunately, it's looked like over matched. If the line of scrimmage moves off the snap it's going backwards.

can't say I'm surprised
 
I guess they were channeling Brady Hoke there. Sparty couldn't kick a 25 yard FG without trouble, all O'Neil had to do was fall on it or fumble forward so Michigan punt team could cover it or tackle Sparty. That's worse than the Colorado Hail Mary right there.
