Wow Michigan’s kicker is a train wreck. Harbaugh should have gone for it.

Forgot about them. So many ****** teams lining up to play us.
What's astounding is how much talent some of the ****** teams have. Penn State and Michigan have had some top ranked recruiting classes and it's been that way for years. At least we can make the excuse that there's not many left in our senior and junior classes to lead our team.

Is it bad that I still have no idea who won this game?
Michigan in triple OT. Wolverines missed a FG in the first OT, but Rutgers's OC decided it would be a great idea to set up the game winner by going backwards, and their kicker missed too.

Michigan looked pretty good after going to its backup QB. The QB who started is athletic and has a strong arm, but he has a windup bigger than Nolan Ryan's. Every ball he threw was delivered late and into heavy coverage.

Thanks for the recap. Did you bleach your eyes after that one?

It was actually a pretty well-played game after Michigan's QB change. Rutgers was up 17-0 at that point but couldn't hold the lead. Vedral had a nice bounceback game after playing Santa Claus to the Illini the previous week.

Did that Rutgers play calling in OT remind you of anybody. All they needed was a field goal to win. 2nd down swing pass that loses 2 yards. 3rd down QB draw that loses another 2 yards. Miss the FG and lose in later OT. Coached a win into a loss.

Yeah if I was a Rutgers fan, I would have been furious. They have a decent running game, so even if they didn't want to risk a turnover the RBs probably could have just rammed the ball forward for 5-6 yards and make it easier on the kicker. The whole series was just painful to watch. Third down wasn't even really a QB draw - it was just a laydown that lost about 4 yards.
