    Michigan had no business losing to Iowa, now it has to deal with the consequences (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    For 59 minutes and 58 seconds, Michigan was the better team than Iowa last week. The stats prove that; anyone who witnessed the game proved that, but the scoreboard did not, and that's all that matters. Nine times out of 10, Michigan football beats Iowa, but Saturday was the one circumstance that proved otherwise. Kyle Whittingham was right in saying that Michigan feels like an 0-4 team because they were losing or tied in every game and struggled too. Iowa is not a better team than Michigan. The

    Despite a debilitating last-second loss to Iowa, the sky is not falling yet. Thanks to some timely mistakes and wasted opportunities, Michigan football now has to decide whether or not the season is worth saving.

Jay Hill is rising up the ranks and attempting to reach the level that Parker has been at for years under Kirk Ferentz. Three games into Hill's Michigan football tenure, a case can be made that Hill has been more impressive this season for these main reasons.

The consensus was that they would feature an elite pass rusher and have one of the nation's better secondaries. The weaknesses were presumed to be the linebacking core and the interior of the defensive line. So far, through two games, those groups have exceeded everyone's expectations because of their new defensive coordinator. Jay Hill has been outstanding by getting the most out

    3 overreactions from Michigan's conquering of Oklahoma (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Conquering Oklahoma was an indescribable feeling after last week's mess. However even more satisfying was the fact that Ohio State choked away a 20-point lead and is 1-3 in their last four games. This weekend will be celebrated for all the right reasons. Go Blue! After the game, Mateer spoke to the media and said he just made some bad throws instead of giving credit to Jay Hill's defense.
