That […]

Michigan Football: Fact vs Fiction heading into non-conference finale

Michigan Football Film Room: Jay Hill’s 3-3-5 masterclass vs. Oklahoma
My wife played basketball at Ohio University. Still green and white, but the lesser of two state evils.

Not a house divided by any means […]

The Michigan Wolverines came away with a 17-10 statement win over No. 11 Oklahoma on Saturday to remain unbeaten, but one glaring issue that has plagued the team throughout the first two weeks of the season is unnecessary penalties.
