this is a joke! fire loyd carrs ass!

What an amazing game. To see Appalachian St. beat Michigan was truly a sight to see. I love how you call this a "joke". App is not a powerhouse by any means, but Appalachian is the 2 time defending 1-AA champions. They came in with a game plan and executed. Plain and simple Go APP!

This is the worst loss in CFB history.

No ranked team had ever lost to a non-D1 team. Then you factor in it's #5 losing at home.

[kovalchuk71 212]

But they are a D1 team. D1-AA

[mik3 1]

True, I meant D1A. No ranked team had ever lost to a non-D1a team.

Hopefully this shuts Michigan up for a while. Notre Dame's getting hosed by Ga Tech...ahhh, I almost like college football now.

To be in Boone right now...

I was at the NC State-UCF game this evening and whole stadium cheered when that came up on the scoreboard.

The ND game was painful to watch. Run, run, run, punt. Run, run, fumble. Run, run, run, punt.

Being a ND fan, it was nice to see a team come out of the sticks in NC and block two feild goals to stick it to a big time program. Games like that make me think that maybe someday the UB Bulls will beat a team other then Temple.

Too bad your boys couldn't beat us.

Go Knights!

Ugh. Just "ugh." Can't win a bowl game. Can't beat OSU. Can't do shit.

And now a loss, IN THE BIG HOUSE, to Appalachian State?!? When I told my girlfriend's father that Michigan lost to Appalachian State, he said "who?" EXACTLY! Out-played and out-coached. Ultimately, that is something I have come to accept, if not expect, from Lloyd Carr's football teams over the past few years. I thought mediocrity sucked; this is a brand new low.

...my phone has been going nuts all afternoon/night. I won't answer it. There's a lot of voicemail that I'm going to have to get through.

Just wait until the Ducks make it two in a row next weekend.

20 seconds into the first quarter, I knew it was going to be a loooong season.

If UofM keeps this up, I will finally be looking forward to the game on Nov 3.

By the way, MSU over UAB 55-18.

[mik3 1]

It's because every big 10 school other than OSU can be beat handily by any spread offense.

ahh what a day to be a Spartan. You guys should have heard East Lansing everytime they flashed the score in Spartan Stadium, and then all the roars when something happened after our game was over. I was riding my bike back to my apartment after the game, stopped to have my brother give me a play-by-play on the phone, and literally had a crowd gathered around me so they could keep updated as well.

go green

[Spreedizzle 1]

My boys fell too.....I saw it coming after last years game...too much at stake.

Tennessee beat by California

:o

Michigan is probably going to lose to Oregon also.

[kosydar 0]

Hope so. I read an article in the paper today about how Oregon and App St. run a very similar offense. Then again, Michigan will have had a week off to see what exactly they did wrong and how to fix it. Plus Oregon's run defense looked atrocious last weekend. If anything, at least this game should be competitive, something I wouldn't have said a week ago.

App State and OSU run pretty much the same offense, Michigan had about 10 months to learn how to not get beat up by that type of offense. I don't think they'll be able to change things in one week.

But yeah, if Hart's healthy it should be a good game.

[kovalchuk71 212]

App couldn't stop Hart period when he was out there. I think they would have been in trouble if he was out there for the entire game.

...I doubt the game is going to be too close. Michigan is uber-pissed and has something to prove - they're either going to be absolutely flawless, or they're going to be completely off their game. If they go out and are successful in using last week as motivation, the Ducks are in a heap of trouble; but if Michigan lets this past Saturday eat at them, Oregon is going to embarrass them even worse than Appalachian State (if that's possible).

You're probably right. As a Duck fan I've been dreading next week since the end of last year, and I'm reaching for any potential good news. I'm just glad that it looks like one of the three powerhouses we're playing this year is beatable. I'm about ready to give up against Cal already after watching them this weekend, and USC is USC.

[Lufria 1]

although i'm a true State fan by heart, my girl goes to UoM, and she's in the Marching Band. She called me right after the game and pointed me in the direction of some youtube videos that people took of the game...it's unreal how silent the stadium got.

Speaking of videos, here's Ohio State fans having a good time...

I was there....My first game ever in the Big House.....I take the blame....

I know some Buckeye fans who offered to buy me season tickets now..
