Bzzzzzzzzzz

Michigan walks themselves into another Buzz Saw. Reminded me a little of last season's game.

Illinois just obliterates the Wolverines, exposing what I think is the real Michigan team. Fumbles, dropped passes, muffed returns, sloppy tackling, etc.

Rich Rodriguez best get this team out of the woods, right about...Now. The defeated body language of this team is not acceptable. At this point it is up to the coaching staff to bust the team out of this funk.

The team CAN play better and they are not executing and are not playing hard nosed, hard hitting football. There is no hard ass attitude. Seems like the first little drawback that happens in the game and the team just gives up and falls to pieces. This has to change.

This team needs a little BO, don't you think?

Rich Rodriguez must turn this season around and it must start Saturday vs Purdue.

Sink or Swim.

Ugh

AP PICTURE
"The defense has been pathetic this season. It once again exhibited difficulty tackling in space and suffering far too many blown assignments in the secondary. It made Illinois quarterback Juice Williams look better than he really is, and that's a stinging indictment for any defense. Illinois had better speed at the skill positions, but Michigan's bad execution contributed to far too many big plays for the Illini." Read the whole story: Detroit Free Press

It is unclear what is really the problem with this Michigan team, one week its the offense, another its the Defense, another it is lack of fundamentals, another it is the talent just isn't there. What is clear is, this team is NOT ready and historically has never been ready (starting with Mcnabb working Michigan years ago) for an athletic quarterback. Why is it, this program is incapable of getting a scheme to stop these QB's? Every last one of them walks all over Michigan like they are prancing in a field of Lilly's. Open field tackling goes right out the window every time a Michigan D is confronted with a player that can actually move. It has to stop and must stop or guess what? bowl games will be the last thing on all of our minds.
