    What has Allar done to be the undoubted starter?

    It is a different game from Collins and Blackledge's days. I don't put all the blame on Allar, but he does seem slow with his reads. That may improve in time. Or it may not. Some QBs never become great at reading defenses as plays unfold. Having a super strong arm is only part of...

    Michigan place kicker Moody

    It isn't overthinking. It is the conventional logic that all teams use. Third possession is what everyone wants.

    B1G and SEC meeting to "look at the entire sports landscape"

    The BIG will also have an excellent shot at adding FSU, and possibly UNC. I think two 24 team conferences would be enough to form a Premier Division.

    B1G and SEC meeting to "look at the entire sports landscape"

    That is not what the SEC wants. They want the biggest payout, and you can only get that with a NATIONAL TV deal. They need the BIG for that.

    The Ohio State All Star team

    It will be interesting to see if they can bond in such a short time together. They have so much talent stacked up, that making the playoff seems certain. How well they mesh might be the difference between 0/1 playoff win and a potential NC.

    Report: Harbaugh meeting with chargers today

    No. Harbaugh won't want to put up with meddling ownership again. I believe it will be San Diego or staying at Michigan.

    Lando: You have won your title now GTFO our board.

    NFL teams make the playoff by rules. But those rules are not attempting to select the best teams. They are subjective rules designed to give all divisions hope. Apples and oranges. Also, the final AP poll is messed up. The team that loses in the NC game shouldn't always be #2. I...

    How much will Alabama want to take Franklin?

    I would guess that Dan Lanning is their number one target. Just depends if Lanning wants to follow a legend. If I were him, I would stay put in Oregon.

    From Caught Cheating To Playing For The National Championship Tonight In The Same Season.......

    People still care about the Olympics. Even though it has dropped amateurism. The only constant is change. Learn to embrace it.

    Credit to Michigan, but Penix

    Washington has a great center and tackles. They will be playing in the NFL. Their guards on the other hand are simply JAGs.

    Nah. He earned himself millions with his Texas performance. When Tom Brady didn't have any time to throw, the Patriots would lose.

    Credit to Michigan, but Penix

    Penix wasn't sacked often, but he was made uncomfortable on about 90% of his passing attempts. He was rushed, he had to move, he was distracted. That was the difference between the Texas game and last night.

    This is for dip$hit - straight off Officiating site

    If you conduct a Zapruder film breakdown of every play, you are going to see holding on EVERY team. You are going to see DBs clutch and grab and attempt to break the rhythm of their receivers. This INCLUDES Penn State. I don't know how someone can be a grown man following this sport and...

    At his best, Penix is similar to Burrow. But his average, while still excellent, is closer to Stroud. Penix 2023: 66.7%, 9.2/att, 35/9, 163 rating Burrow 2019: 76.3%, 10.8/att, 60/6, 202 rating Stroud 2021: 71.9%, 10.1/att, 44/6, 187 rating I also think that LSU team had a better defense...

    Ohio State had a similar QB last year. Most (around 90%?) of this Michigan defense played Stroud in '22. The receivers are similarly talented and dangerous.

    Washington claims he will play. He is crucial as far as pass protection.

    Washington can absolutely beat Michigan.

    lol. Yes, McCord in his first year starting was a bit of a drop off from a Heisman trophy finalist. Who could have foreseen that?! Perhaps Day should have relied more on your running game and defense this year... Just a thought.
