Blake the great!

I happened to go to Twitter when the game went to commercial and the Michigan account had just posted it was ruled a turnover.  Talk about a delay with the broadcast.

We had to know about all the good products and services

Feel a lot better now.     I just don't think Iowa has 17 points in them.   

If Michigan and Florida State win....

1 - Michigan

2- Washington

3- Alabama

4 - Florida State

 

If Michigan wins and FSU loses

1 - Michigan

2 - Washington

3 - Alabama

4 - Texas

 

If Michigan loses and FSU wins

1 - Washington

2 - Alabama

3 - Florida State

4 - Texas

 

If Michigan and FSU both lose

1 - Washington

2 - Alabama

3 - Texas

4 - Georgia

Officials blew that call on the field. But it was a fumble. Go blue.

I don't understand how we ended up with that ball, but what a gift.

Our offense still looks suspect and makes me concerned for who we play next. Even if we win tonight, Washington deserves to jump us based on how they played yesterday. 

I mean I'm not saying the offense is playing great but sometimes you have to credit the opponent, this Iowa defense is really good.

No way, Washington should jump Michigan and be the #1 seed unless Michigan's offense turns it around and shows any sign of life. This offense was gifted fantastic field position on both scores.

MIchigan actually stopped a tush push?

I just want to wish this bar well in bankruptcy.

155 total yards, 33 rushing yards, 122 passing yards, and 3.7 yards per play. A really concerning offensive performance thus far. Our running game is supposed to be our specialty and we're averaging less than 3 ypc. This type of offensive performance is going to get us beat by at minimum 3 scores against any non-Florida State team that we have to face in the playoffs.

Only place in Iowa where a chorus of boos would have rained had Iowa put up 3 on their opening drive.

[MichiganCardinal]

Maybe I’ll be wrong but I think this is the Maryland and the semifinal is the Ohio State.

These guys have been there, done that with this game.

JJ looking comical

No Zach Zinter is a colossal problem for this line. If this offensive line can't improve or we can't scheme our way out of this problem we're going to get torched by any non‐FSU team we face in the playoffs.

20-0. I'll take it.

just reading this board you would think it’s closer to 3-3

[MichiganCardinal]

The B1G and ACC are in synch right now. Both end of 3rd. 

Louisville 1st and Goal down 10-3

Nervous fans be nervous.

[MIguy]

Louisville is about to tie it up to start the 4th.  I think Michigan should be #1 and FSU should be 4th.  Let Washington play either Texas or Alabama.

I just haven’t been nervous. Maybe it’s the alcohol. But Iowa wasn’t ever going to score 10 on Michigan.

[romad1]

that Iowa QB is more like a Quarterpounder, amirite?   I'm not saying he's fat that when he goes camping, the bears hide Their food.

[gehringer_2]

this game is like Bo vs Woody circa 1972, except that no-one would be going for it on 4th down.
