Similar to what I said after last week’s victory over Illinois – Rich Rodriguez and this Michigan team has again shown that they are a better football team than a year ago. I’m not claiming much beyond a sliver of improvement, but hey wins are wins are wins. It’s an extremely incomplete team with a [...]

Michigan loses another Big Ten contest. Michigan loses again at the Big House. It was almost predictable, and definitely so as the game progressed – but I can never see it coming. I’m a guy that allows the game to dictate the general enjoyment or lack there of of a great fall Saturday – and [...]
