It's a few minutes until kickoff. No one is giving NU much of a chance. All four GameDay guys picked against the Cats.

Just how I like it.

The kicking and punting as per usual, but could have been a holding on that return.

Who didn't continue with their assignment on the play action?

Right now UM is winning the LoS.

Can we PLEASE get a damn kicker who can put the ball in the damn end zone? I have been harping on this for a decade or more, but there is no excuse for not recruiting a kicker who can put the ball in the end zone.

Yep. Can't kick it out of (or at least into) the endzone, it's going to bite you in the butt at some point. Just did. If we're going to be a top-notch team, then we must improve our kicking and punting.

Looks like Vegas was right on. UM is for real folks
.


Go away, loser. You're beating up on guys who are sleepwalking. You're still gonna lose. It's just going to before painful. Actually, come to think of it, your like must suck so bad, you're here right now. I pity you.

Seems like McCall learned some things (moved the pocket already) and didn't learn some things from the game last season (don't try to run up the middle - which is the strength of the UM D).

Stated that the 'Cats can't lose track of Rudock running.

Rudock isn't going to make a mistake or 2 if the 'Cats D can't get any pressure (Rudock has all kinds of time to throw).

Say what you want about Harbaugh, but that he does magic improving O-lines (look at the state of the 49ers O-line presently).

The hold on Watkins was blatant and in space. Not sure how that wasn't called.

I said before we would be at a disadvantage with refs in the big house, especially if we already got jobbed in the Minny game. Our only shot to win is/was if we won decisively enough where such calls wouldn't be the margin between a close win and loss.
