No mention of us. Not 1 vote!
Glad the black pants are back, I may have missed it but what is our payday for this game?
Looks much better size wise on paper. I'd like to see the D just a bit bigger although that's what Appy St does smaller faster "D" and it gave the Big 10 a "L"
Not to disrespect our I-AA comrades, but that was the worst team in Michigan history ...absolutely pitiful. Now I also remember a Penguin team holding the lead against a solid (not great) Penn State club until 1:02 remaining in the first half at Happy Valley. I am hoping for even more in East Lansing this year. We have a former Penguin coach at the helm, and a former Penguin player (son of a former Penguin Head coach) at D coordinator.
Not to turn this into a Michigan-Appy thread, but you're way off there on it being the worst team in Michigan history. That 2007 Michigan team started the season ranked #5 and finished the season 9-4 after defeating Florida and Heisman winner Tebow in the Cap One Bowl. Also they were B10 runner-ups. Now, the last 3 seasons under Rodriguez are up there as the worst in school history.
I do not want to bring it back up either, App State fans won't leave it alone (although we are just as guilty going back to the 90's), but the #18 Marshall club we should have beaten, was a far superior team to that UM club ...as the next week when (I think it was Oregon) played back-ups against UM in the first half. Then a poor Notre Dame club shut them out in week-3. Yes the Wolverines recovered somewhat, but on a given day, that was still the worst team to ever take the field for Michigan.
The NCAA admitted they will do nothing to an individual established MAC school, as long as the conference meets the requirements ...I think 15,118 was last year's average attendance. This is why they accepted Temple
