Every time Michigan loses a game, an angel gets his wings.

Thought everyone knew that.

Aggies vs Clemson

This could turn out to be a really good game. Looking forward to it.

Yay, Wolverines!  The team looked very good today and the players seemed in great spirits, which is good.

I was also happy to see McCaffrey get some time, including a pass to McCurry for a touchdown, which my wife called a "McTouchdown".  :aok  Good to see Peters get some time, too.

I also watched the Nebraska game.  Yikes, that was a heart breaker of a game for Nebraska but it sure meant a lot to Colorado, and it was a very exciting game, coming down to the final play in the last 3 seconds.

My daughter (who is 8) loves the Gators because she for some reason loves alligators.  Therefore, I wish the Gators well (unless they are playing Michigan).

Ug. Sparty couldn't pull off the win either.  And Northwestern got clobbered by Duke of all places.  And Purdue lost to Eastern Michigan.  And Minnesota had its hands full with Fresno State.

The Big 10 took some hits this week.

Maryland, surprisingly, is doing great, though.

Turned out to be a good game. Tried for the 2 point conversion to tie at the very end but missed it. Aggies were within 2 of the second place team. No win but a good statement.

Patterson is good and the future seems secure in McCaffery's hands but our tackles specifically Runyan really need to work on their feet and hand movements, there's been several times where Runyan has looked lost and just"In the way" and rarely does he get his hands on people before they get into his body. The late hands and flat feet at this point may be hard to over come and I wouldn't be opposed to see a younger guy get a shot as the oline is the weak spot, but it's early and maybe the oline will start meshing and the tackles may get better. Losting Newsome was a huge loss. RB's look good Higdon and Evans are known commodities but Tru Wilson looked good as well.

They may be building something in Colorado.

Hard to say about Bama and Auburn... they played teams that were (not disparaging them)
really not on their level
