announcers firmly in Michigan's corner
Oct. 8 Afternoon (early and late) games thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Tempo hurting Michigan defense. Our PA Flood set should be successful as well.
IU scores on a pick play. Flag comes out. Right call from McGuinns crew.

3rd week in a row calling them. Our game will be the 4th.
Emory Simmons now a Hoosier. Former WR we were after.
Near pick, then a pick. Michigan ball IU 42.

PU had another late half/game defensive gaffe to allow a long TD pass to tie their game.
I think Harbaugh planned to rest Corum today. After taking his first 2 runs 50 and 1 for a TD, they cut back.
Now they've let IU hang around. A porous run defense is now shutting down Corum and co.
Michigan DL has kept them in the game at critical times. They aren't last years unit, but they are beating the OL and hitting IUs QB.

Michigan is flat. Whether it was Hart leaving on a stretcher or more likely getting caught looking ahead to PSU they are struggling. Indiana is a team you can't sleep on, their offense is good and can put up points. They better wake up this second half or they can easily walk out with a L today.
98 yard drive puts Michigan back up. Michigan's best passing is the underneath, short crossing game. I expect to see a lot of 7 DBs on those 3rd downs.
. . . and the announcers make sure they point that out on every penalty called against Michigan
I have seen at least 4 good pass break ups by IU that will be called PI next week!
Now 2:25 left, Purdue ball, Maryland calling timeouts. Wow, this would be a bad loss for Maryland.
They're warming up already. A dropped pass (hit the ground) by Michigan that's called a completion.
Agreed. Ruled an incompletion on the field there is no way the replay supports overturning. If anything it confirmed by the call - the top of the ball clearly hit the ground while the ball was still moving.
One thing Michigan does that I wish we'd do: shotgun snap runs, they block the DE vs leaving him for the read. Usually down block the play and let Corum find daylight.
Should Purdue have not scored when up 24-23, they have the ball on the 1, MD out of time outs with 1:29 to go, it is 3rd down and PU scores. They could have taken a knee and run the clock down to around :45 seconds, used one of their own TO’s and decide to score or make MD go 99. I think I would have tried to score on 4 th down
TCU edges KU 38-31.
Final KU drive in the final minute stopped inside the TCU 20 by a zebra 4th down no call on a PI.
Tough loss.

They won. So it's tough to say they were wrong. I think you HAVE to try to score on 3rd down, but know hell is coming.
