I have a premonition that victory will be within UM's grasp tomorrow, but they won't get it done.

Just seems like that kind of year.

I saw a replay of the 1999 psu-um game on espn-classic the other day. On one play, brady faked an injury and henson entered the game. Then they ran a trick play where henson threw to a receiver who threw back to henson who ran for 30 yards. It worked like a charm. Flash forward 8 years to last week's game and they tried the same play with mallett who fell down. so... lloyd's one trick play has been recycled for 8 years, but he doesn't seem to realize that the reason it worked so well with henson is that 1) henson could actually run well, 2) penn state probably over-pursued to get after henson after he came into the game sans warm-up. Nonetheless, it seems like lloyd likes to whip that play out a couple of times per season regardless of the quarterback and without the fake injury set up.

I wrote this in another thread, but I predict 20-17 psu in an ugly offensive game. I am not buying that morelli is a good passer this year. Hopefully Graham will play another strong game. (this time against players that have actually blocked someone before.) I also foresee a crable personal foul, 2 mallett/henne INTs, 80 yards for hart against an 8-man front geared to stop him, 1 long td pass. On the other side 1 morelli int, 1 morelli fumble, 1 defensive td (or at least one instance where the psu defense gets a turnover deep in michigan territory), and 1 odd paterno senior moment.

I totally remember that game and every single detail you mentioned-crazy. Speaking of crazy, i love the "Craaaaaazy Lloyd" nickname when he tries something 1/2 original.

Crazy LLLLLLLLoyd is nowhere in sight as the Stone Aged gameplan is dumbed down so a true freshman quarterback can "handle it". But, PSU does not run the spread and have a scrambling ass quarterback, so we should be golden.

All the big recruits in attendance (including McGuffie) feel it-

M-27
PSU-23

This game is pretty interesting to me just based on what Moodini, Filly, and Jickboy have said since last Sat. All three seem to believe that as long as the other team doesn't have a fast qb, Michigan is a lock. Don't know if I agree or disagree with that, but the devil's advocate might ask if John David Booty is a scrambler.

Like I said in the other post, this is a save what's left of the season game. MUST WIN for blue. I'll be interested to see if PSU's defense was just the result of playing cake teams or if they are indeed good.

Not that there was a whole lot of doubt, but Mallett is starting today.

Lou Holtz sez Michigan probably do crossword puzzles with pens because they're so arrogant and don't think they'd make a mistake.

I do all my crosswords with pens. Not that hard, occassionally I make a mistake, but usually I don't.
Fuck a Lou Holtzh.

Lou Holtzthhhhhh.

I thought that was hilarious. No wait...only Doc Tre thinks Michigan is arrogant right?

I would've found it funny too if I could've understood what Holtzth said the first time.

27-13 UM. Game isn't really that close...Take it to the bank bitches. LOL

Holtzh is only trying to recruit for Notre Dame. The Irish are in bad shape, and he wants to deflect attention from their plight.

Wow, super bold. I like it.

those most be mallet's slow feet tre was talking about...

Direct snap to Junior Hemingway? Craaaaaaaaaaazy Lloyd.

What the fuck is wrong with the kicking game this year?

You know Lloyd doesn't know how to recruit kickers.

I wonder what bukdow thinks about the mouth? Penn St is keying on him, and he still has about 80 yards by halftime.
Also, I like the playcalling, pretty mixed up. What we have here is a Frosh who is just a bit off, doesn;t make the right reads every time, but is playing pretty well. And Adrian Arrington catches everything thrown his way, while Manningham needs to grow some balls.

Adrian Arrington is the manliest man with the name "Adrian" ever.

What I wonder is why you don't give the Frosh more passes to the tight end? Especially with play action on first down?
Defense playing awesome, JoePa is in a shell, Lloyd in his head.
How can you be 6'7 and have passes batted down at the line of scrimmage? Do michigan coaches teach you to throw the ball from your hip?
Inquiring minds want to know.
I've had four beers so far. No food. This could get ugly.

Have we ever questioned how good he is?

Nice play by Mallett to get the 1st down.

bukdow can assume his usual position of sucking one Wolverine cock while being fucked in the ass by another. And I mean REAL Wolverines, the nasty animals who would eat his lame ass afterward.

Have we ever questioned how good he is?

I think it's about time, Tre, for you to shut the FUCK up regarding ANYTHING about Mike Hart.
Just resist the urge to talk about him from now on, and you won;t look like such an idiot.

I heard him say that on ESPNEWS and died laughing...he is such a tool on that show...

he needs to swallow like every 2 seconds b/c he gathers so much saliva in his mouth every time he uses a vowel...I swear you could use his head as a sprinkler

Normally I'd wish for Holtzth to be off my TV, but with Notre Dame struggling and all I find it entertaining to hear him every day.

THANK YOU!!!!

Having a Michigan State fan criticize Mike Hart is akin to a Michigan fan criticizing Mateen Cleaves.

Just a warning!!!

Shags, you have just set yourself up to be involved in the wrath of Doc Tre. Mateen won National Championships and Mike Hart has only one Big Ten ring to show so far.............

tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk.................I can't wait for Tre to go to town on you for your comment.

P.S. You had the right intention in what you were saying, but you made a bad choice by picking Mateen.

You know Lloyd doesn't know how to recruit kickers.


if your a kicker with talent would you ever choose ann arbor? no. its the one position you dont need to be showcased at all, so some shitschool in cali > ann arbor. cant blame lloyd on that one.

Diddy, your connections to said shitschool in Cali are tenuous at best.

no, what you dont realize is that when doc tre criticizes michigan he's being objective and when a um fan defends michigan theyre being homers.

what a complete clown he is, btw. nice fucking call on mallet. i'll go ahead and guarantee mallet goes 4-0 on little brother, btw. i love that kid. he looks like hes having a ton of fun playing outthere, which im sure either tweedle dee or tweedle dum will cry bout as being low class. have i mentioned how i cant wait for sparty, btw?

Diddy, your connections to said shitschool in Cali are tenuous at best.


your right, i appologize. even though i have no affiliation to said school, definitly wasnt rooting for them, and in reality didnt even aknowledge said shool's actual existence, i appologize for misrepresenting myself under buckdow's cogent rules towards college football fanmanship.

i feel like a complete asshole.

^ Cali is THE place for kickers to fall off cliffs though, Diddy.

incidentally, not to call anyone out, but for everyone saying lloyd was the worst thing that ever happened to UM, shouldnt you atleast acknowledge that the coaching staff was a big part of this win? over a top 10 school.

The coaching staff should be counting their blessings right now for that ugly win. If the Lions were actually awake and weren't hung over, the game might have been more interesting.

Don't even go there, diddy. Fuck this coaching staff.

They are about as good as any when it comes to circling the wagons.

They did an excellent job, but that doesnt mean I want them to stay another season after this.

UM is just lucky that PSU has a worse coaching staff than they are.

How with those wide outs do you not go 4-5 WR all the time and do what everyone that wants to thrash UM has done.

BTW Perry was at this game again.

Anyone else notice that B. Graham makes a huge difference when he is allowed to play. He is scary good.

I only saw the second half of this game. huge win. I have noticed b graham is far and away the best playmaker on this defense. Where the hell was he the first two games? discipline problems or is the coaching staff just that stupid?

Also, I told you all that mallett's strength over henne and navarre would be his ability to move around more and throw on the run. He just seems to have the instinctive awareness of where pass rushers are coming from that henne and navarre lacked. In fact, I think henne's biggest weakness is his susceptibility to getting sacked for big losses (rather than at least throwing the ball away). Mallett made some mistakes (especially the fumble), but he was brilliant in the 4th quarter. That kid has a ton of talent. I can't imagine how clausen was considered a better prospect.

The other end of the spectrum is: how the hell could a team that is capable of beating a top-10 program look utterly and completely unprepared for the first two weeks of the season?

Exactly! I keep saying what does Claussen do good? He's not that tall, not fast or agile, minimal armstrength, and doesn't seem to be very accurate. I know ND is pathetic and his line is horrific, but he has shown me nothing to warrant being the #1 player in the country and some even saying in the last 10 years. Mallett has struggled in some areas (fumbling snaps! geez!) like you would expect from a freshman, but you can see his huge upside. Maybe it's just hype for his boy, but Henne said that Mallett will the the best QB in Michigan history.

To the game, the gameplan was obviously to pound away with Hart and not give Mallett too much to handle (I think I called that one!). It worked. Jake Long is a beast (96 rush yards to the left, negative to the right) and Hart might go down in history as the greatest Wolverine ever. As mentioned before, PSU is idiotic for not spreading the field with their talented skill position players, and not once did we see the former HS QB Derrick Williams take a snap at center. They could have gashed U-M if they wanted to. Very Lloyd like.

Bottom line-Michigan can handle anyone if they run a traditional Big Ten offense with an immoble QB.

Graham was in the doghouse.

I dont remember what he did. (I want to say he posted that Slocum Facebook thing, but that could be me starting an internet rumor). He was also a little dinged up for the first game.

Mallett has a lot to learn, but he seems to love the game and he can make all the throws.

That one play where he hit Matthews at the end of the game for a 1st down was a play that Henne never would have made.

D. Williams is the next stud CB that UM will produce. He is confident, cocky and just is a player.

This defense is getting better and better. My biggest worry for the next 3-4 weeks is Illinois.

I recall a certain poster named Zip Goshboots who was cautioning everyone about Claussen being over rated this past spring and summer.

The kid turned 20 yesterday. This is an NCAA record for 1st year frosh who haven't been to war. However I'm not ready to bury the kid just yet. I think he might look a tad better handing off to Hart and throwing to MM & AA. I'm sure it would do wonders for his self esteem.

No question, and throw in Jake Long to block for him. Poor kid is being thrown out to the wolves. I'm not burying him, either. I guess he also had a throwing arm injury to overcome.
I did hear a couple recruiting gurus in the spring, though, comment that they couldn't see the magic that warranted him being the #1 prospect, or better than Mallett.

I think it's about time, Tre, for you to shut the FUCK up regarding ANYTHING about Mike Hart.

I think it's time for you to SHUT THE FUCK UP because you are a moron. I truly mean that. You never seen to understand anybody's point. We all said Hart was great. We just questioned his actions surrounding the Oregon game. That's all. If you don't get that, go back and read. We've also said he talks too much and he does. But, he is a great back. We've all said that from the start. So get your panties out of a bunch and chill the fuck out. I think you are pissy watching your embarrassing Cornhuskers.

Here comes the Wolverine bandwagoners. You could have predicted that a mile away.

Just a warning!!!

P.S. You had the right intention in what you were saying, but you made a bad choice by picking Mateen.

hahaha Too easy Filly. I'm guessing Shags didn't see that throughout the last few weeks I've said Hart was great. I just don't like his mouth and thought he made leadership mistakes surrounding the Oregon game. That's it.

incidentally, not to call anyone out, but for everyone saying lloyd was the worst thing that ever happened to UM, shouldnt you atleast acknowledge that the coaching staff was a big part of this win? over a top 10 school.

This is how stupid you are. Michigan is fantastic against traditional old school offenses. The problem is, only half the country still runs them. The coaching staff sucks ass because they can't adjust. That is what coaching is all about. App. St. lost to Wooford yesterday.

BTW, I only saw bits but Mallet did look pretty solid yesterday.

In regards to you guaranteeing he goes 4-0 against State, I'll take that bet.

Wow. a veritable posting frenzy of bullshit.

No Michigan real problem is QBs who can throw and run.

The only spread that UM faces that scares me out of Purdue, Minny and Illinois, is Illinois, Juice Williams scares me.

We own Purdue's spread and Minny is god awful.

So Tre comes on here and cautions about the U of M bandwagon...only to be the only one posting in the thread for multiple posts. LMAO.

Tre is acting like the little brother who pokes at the big brother with a stick until he finally hits the little brother. Then the little brother cries to draw attention to it.

I think Tre is just pissed off because the Wolverine is played by KICK ASS Hugh Jackman and is totally bad ass.
Meanwhile, the Spartans are represented in a movie about a dim wit who takes 300 of his best soldiers on a suicide mission and ends up becoming a human pin cushion. They should have dressed him up as a fluffy tomato.

I like it. Clearly a Hugh Jackman effect in our midsts.

Do some you dress like that or is it worse?

Anyway, I can't believe the arrogance and huge ego some you Wolverine fans have. Are you claiming now since UM is not 0-4 that Lloyd Carr should not retire after this season? Didn't he lead your team to the unprecidented loss to Applachin St at the beginning of the season? Come down the road will some of you have the balls to admit that State is better than UM this year?

we all dress like that.

Fortunately, a guy in section 54 was selling them at two for $25.00. Saved the day. I was the only one in my section without them, and I was forced to not only massage everyone else's feet during the third quarter, but give play by play of the game to them. What a faux pas.
