The Blue Board

MSU looked below average against Boise.

UM looks abhorrent against Alabama.

While no team in the B1G looked good this weekend, to claim UM played better than any one of them is kind of foolish (barring PSU).

Just lost to 'bama, and I aint even mad.

We're on our way back. Just give it another year or 2.

I'm not using 2007 as proof that we'll succeed this year, but after losing to App St and Oregon, weren't people thinking the same thing about Michigan?

Overreaction. What has Devin shown to make you think that he would be any better?

Yes, we got absolutely crushed tonight. I assumed we would lose but I definitely underestimated Alabama. I truly thought we would put up a better fight than we did even with the losses we had. It's a very dissappointing game but it's a reality check that we're simply not there yet. However, I still think we can compete for the big ten title and I have faith we'll still have a great season. Troll away. I'm going to enjoy the sorrow party.

And now the full effect of alcohol kicks in for some fans.

Have a safe night everyone.

I'm sure they do.

Not an overreaction, anybody with half a brain knows that Devin is a better passer than denard. We wouldn't have achieved what we did last year, but we would be much further ahead than we are now. Its just common sense. Denard is a great athlete, just not a good qb. He is a RB/wr playing qb. If anyone can't admit that, they are in denial. There's a reason that we (RR) were the only big school to even give him a chance at playing qb. NOBODY else wanted him at qb and that's the only reason he came to Mich. He is an outstanding athlete, and more importantly, a great person. He is best suited to have the ball in open space, which would be best achieved by playing at wr or RB.

I'm curious as to what makes you believe this is true? Do you have film? I'm not agreeing/disagreeing .. I'm just curious.

What's with the "We didn't play Michigan football" quotes from Hoke and all the players?

Is that code for when they get crushed? Said same thing LY after State game

I've been saying for months that it's a sunbelt dominated sport and that USC, Alabama, LSU and so on just play football at much higher level than anyone in the rust belt. Everytime an b10 team plays one of those schools it's a complete thrashing. The only time it wasn't was when USC had Barkley as a frosh in the horseshoe but he still had enough to beat OSU at home n

I haven't seen anything that is going to change that trend any time soon.

He is. Unfortunately, he is only better as a pocket passer, and while he might be netter on the run too, the kid becomes pretty clueless as to his progressions and where he is on the field. That hurts him big time. Mr Woodson, however, has said about 100 pages ago he's really improved in that aspect, so we'll have to see when he gets in. He can play on Sunday as a wideout. Just sayin. Hope I don't get yelled at again for suggesting it
