SEC Week 6 Preview
Thursday, October 4th, 2007Saturday Shake-Up
Sunday, September 30th, 2007In week five things got interesting, and week six will change the landscape. College football showed why it is a beautiful thing this last week. Heavily favored teams went out and were beat by teams with lower quality personnel. Texas, Oklahoma, Florida and Alabama were all upset. Washington and California were games that said a [...]
Michigan vs. Northwestern Preview
Thursday, September 27th, 2007The Wolverines can’t possibly lose this game. Can they? Northwestern lost to Duke. A couple of things that I know. Michigan has consistently had trouble with Northwestern. For some reason the Wildcats play Michigan tough. Northwestern runs a version of the spread offense that gave Michigan fits against Appalachian State and Oregon. Thankfully Northwestern’s version [...]
Michigan drops fourth straight
Tuesday, September 11th, 2007624 of total offense for the Ducks, 7 points for Michigan, 2 losses at home, 4 losses in a row, and ultimately 1 person to blame… Lloyd Carr. I have given him a long leash. He hasn’t beat Ohio State in 3 years. That makes me cringe, but it’s not something that should cost him [...]
Michigan loses to Appalachian State
Saturday, September 1st, 2007I quit. I just can’t take it anymore. Michigan losing at home to Appalachian State has pushed me over the edge. I know that people will be calling for Lloyd Carr’s job for this one. I can’t make an argument against it. This is 3 straight losses. Two of them were big ones, Ohio State [...]

This Year’s George Mason
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007The first and second rounds of the NCAA tournament went, for the most part as planned. Of course there were upsets, players coming into their own, and cinderellas, but people looking for “this year’s George Mason” have been sorely disappointed. They’ve been disappointed for precisely the reason that George Mason was such a story last [...]
Duke loses it’s first round game to VCU
Thursday, March 15th, 2007Every March, I make out my brackets, just like everyone else, but just once. It’s what the folks on the Mike & Mike Show call their “Sheet of Integrity”. That sounded good to me. So I started doing this last year. First of all, it’s definitely less confusing. You have one pick. You don’t have [...]
