These are such lame things to predict at this point.
Looking at the glass half full, the solve for Michigan's run game is helped by NU's decidedly non-leaky pass D. And Michigan's leading receiver's stats would make him WR #4 for NU. The solve for Haynes and Underwood isn't easy, but them plus a couple of crafty WRs would be harder. Cortez Mills has 3 fewer receiving yards than their second WR...without looking, and maybe i'll look like an idiot for not looking, i'm betting that our passing D looks that good because we can't stop a nose bleed in the rushing department and teams are rushing a lot more than passing and with 2 of our 3 games against high school competition and big leads, when teams are forced to pass because we're so far up, we know their going to pass. Michigan going to be a more accurate barometer for the overall D....sincerly, captian obvious. Haha
Special teams is fairly opponent-less, so I agree. If you do the things you are supposed to.Don’t care who our opponents have been with this stat. We have had some many years of poor special teams. And no emphasis on SP. Pay that man lots of money. Eck deserves it
Not saying I looked at him every play, but Merritt made some nice plays. He gets to the ball.Did not know Javin was out last week. I now know why we saw a heavy dose of Merritt.
Merritt is going to be good, and he got extra run Saturday bc Buddha Wright was held out for minor injury.Not saying I looked at him every play, but Merritt made some nice plays. He gets to the ball.
Impressive considering his offer list outside of Nebraska was Wyoming and Pennylvania.
Has there been a new Depth Chart released yet for this game?
I wonder if he was healing up from an injuryKwinten Ives 4th string? Mekhi Nelson 2nd string? Nelson did not play a single down last week and Ives saw a ton of action and did reasonably well. Somebody make sense of this for me?
There was a thread earlier this week that he may be on Rhule’s $h!+ list.I wonder if he was healing up from an injury
Isn't there a whole thread on Nelson being in the doghouse for the last game?Kwinten Ives 4th string? Mekhi Nelson 2nd string? Nelson did not play a single down last week and Ives saw a ton of action and did reasonably well. Somebody make sense of this for me?
Looks like a 1 game doghouse. He was a probably a complete dope about something and Rhule sat him. Pretty easy game to make that decision.Isn't there a whole thread on Nelson being in the doghouse for the last game?
Nelson would have had a monster last week had he not been held out for coaches decision. He must be looking way better in practice.Kwinten Ives 4th string? Mekhi Nelson 2nd string?

I was not that impressed with Ives. He did ok, but he is not fast, has no shake and bake, and misses the proper angle through holes too often. He has good hands as a receiver, but so do the other guys. I think 4th string is where he belongs. I was just surprised to see his demotion be that sudden after Nelson was in the doghouse.Nelson would have had a monster last week had he not been held out for coaches decision.

Did average 7.1 yards per carry last week. Emmet was 6.0. Not trying to say he's better. Just noting the stats.I was not that impressed with Ives.
