Week 8 Thread - (More Than a Feeling)

[CJ_24]

Five turnovers so far for Illinois. Is the Peter man playing for them?

 

[Wuf]

Lovie Smith looks like Uncle Jemima

 

[bruin228]

Lovie’s gonna turn it around, guys

 

[bruin228]

Hornibrook is god awful, holy shit

He’s trying to put on his best Favre impression except he has a noodle arm

 

[DeadMan]

Really wish Patterson would keep more. I'm not sure Michigan is actually running a read on a lot of their plays that look like zone reads, but there's a ton of space on the outside pretty frequently.

 

[Southpaw]

LJ Scott is going to be a good NFL player. Titans could sure use him. Get rid of twinkle toes Henry.

 

[Wuf]

 

[DeadMan]

Watching games on Fox is torture. They take a commercial break every possible time they can, no matter the situation. I think the average number of plays between commercials in this game is 4.

 

[bruin228]

Why did Dantonio call a timeout when the play clock was running down on Michigan on a 4th and 10 that they didn’t even go for lol

 

[DeadMan]

It looked like his defense wasn't lined up at all. But yeah, there was like 2 seconds on the play clock, so I dunno.

They’re seriously squeezing in ads wherever they can get them, what the fuck was that?

 

[DeadMan]

I'd prefer that to another 3 minute commercial break every time.

 

[DeadMan]

FFS. We should be up 14 or more.

 

[Irishman]

Patterson's face on that missed field goal...

 

[bruin228]

Are you fucking kidding me?

 

[Irishman]

Big Ten officiating...

 

[coogrfan]

Cinci 17 Temple 10 end of 3rd.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Rutgers up 15-10 early 4th. Just waiting for the meltdown

 

[Southpaw]

Maybe eventually they will just put sponsors on jerseys and shit and cut down on commercials. Doubtful but going to a game in person is fucking miserable. They last 4 hours with about 25 minutes of live action.

 

[DeadMan]

Fuck, that looked bad for Felton Davis. Hope he's okay. He's really freaking good.

 

[bruin228]

KLATT is awful

I love that near INT because it gets safeties out of the box on 3rd and 10 with 30 seconds left in the half

He was right, you donk. INT is a punt in that situation, and it was closer to being caught than an INT. You have to have the threat of a long pass to avoid MSU's safeties from playing in the box.

 

[bruin228]

Closer to being caught lol

Yeah, an INT is fine, but he’s an idiot talking about the box in a 3rd and long situation at the end of the half. Pretty sure MSU had like four guys in the box. The point of the deep ball threat with regards to the box is literally any other situation than that.

 

[DeadMan]

Sure, but Patterson hasn't shown at all that he'll throw one deep in the game, so it might help a little bit.

 

[bruin228]

It’s all moot given that MSU will be unable to move the ball more the five yards in the second half

 

[DeadMan]

It’s all moot given that MSU will be unable to move the ball more the five yards in the second half

Here's hoping! Another TD by Michigan would help me feel a lot better, too. Can't let MSU hang around like they did against PSU.

 

[DeadMan]

Motherfucker, this is what I'm taking about. 22 yard pass on a good play and then add 15 yards on a stupid penalty. FFS.

 

[DeadMan]

COME THE FUCK ON, MORONS.

 

[bruin228]

Gotta put Dantonio on the hot seat if he loses this game while playing with defensive backs at receiver

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Gonna put bruin228 on the hot seat if he doesn't cut it out.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

TD Sparty! @ZeekTLK

 

[bruin228]

Gonna put bruin228 on the hot seat if he doesn't cut it out.

KLATT

 

[DeadMan]

Love the give up draw where you just drop the ball. Fucking awful.

 

[DeadMan]

Can't let MSU hang around like they did against PSU.

FFS

 

[bruin228]

These refs lmao

 

[kella]

This Michigan game is awful.

 

[bjc]

The defenses are good on both teams but holy shit, neither offense is very good.

Again.. defenses are good.. but really bad play on both offenses too. MSU especially looks bad on offense. Horrid QB play and almost no separation by MSU WRs most plays.

 

[DeadMan]

This Michigan game is awful.

Imagine if you were a fan of either team!

 

[bruin228]

Their top two or three receivers are out, but it doesn’t matter when Lewerke either thinks his receivers have 10 foot long arms or thinks the field is 10 yards wider than it is

 

[Bmack]

Shane Peterson is coming on though.

 

[Yankee151]

How is the Michigans game still in the 3rd

 

[Bmack]

How is the Michigans game still in the 3rd

Rain delay

 

[bruin228]

It’s days like this that I almost wish Wolfmong were still here so he could post frothing at the mouth about how bad NC State is

 

[Wuf]

[Norm MacDonald voice] Note to self: Vegas is smarter than Wuf

 

[DeadMan]

Top two receivers are out. But yeah, there's some room there that Lewerke is not hitting. He's also not scrambling at all. It's strange.

How is the Michigans game still in the 3rd

1 hour 15 minute rain delay in the first quarter. I'm also on streaming because Colorado flipped to the CU game. Boo.

 

[bruin228]

Good call

 

[bruin228]

Can these refs go fuck themselves with these unsportsmanlike calls, it’s a rivalry

 

[Dr. Shats Basoon]

Ya gotta think this Minnesota Nebraska game is exactly what the big ten had in mind when we joined this conference

 

[Wuf]

State sucks
