MichiganShootist Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Wow... One of the best college games I've seen in a long time. If Michigan hadn't fumbled twice inside the 1 yard line... they would have beat Florida by 3 touch downs. Tebow is a great young player... but he found it hard to pass when he was running for his life every play. The Wolverines were pretty amazing when their key players were healthy.... and that's even when Florida was effectively playing a home game.

nwb01 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 It will be nice to finally see a change at Michigan. Loyd was/is a great coach but he really made people scratch their heads at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Good game. I loved the one-handed catch and the go-get'um d-fense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ima45dv8 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 It was the best game I saw yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putty Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Michigan has always had the talent and Carr was on his way out for underacheiving the last ~6 years...IMO. Watch out with the WVA coach that is taking over. They may only lose 1 game next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gameplayer Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Just when I thought Lloyd Carr had nothing left. What a great game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hopalong Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 I have to give Michigan credit where credit is due. congrats to the big M !!!!! It really pains me to root for Florida, but they are a SEC team and I pull for them as long as they aren't playing TENNESSEE. So I pulled for Fl, but was impressed with MI. Hop.

bountyhunter Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 I have to admit.... I take a perverse pleasure in seeing Florida lose. Same with the Denver Broncos..... oh, and the Atlanta Braves. The image of hanoi Jane Fonda and loudmouth Ted Turner sitting in the stands doing "the chop" made me long to see his team go to oblivion.... and it did.

Thomas Moore Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Had to be one of the best games I saw all year. I felt bad for Hart when he fumbled twice within 5 yards of the goal line. Hart hadn't fumbled in 1002 touches, thats some record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 00:15 seconds into the game, and on Michigan's opening drive Henne throws to Arrington and he catches the ball behind his back! Behind his back ? ...... and another Michigan "magic catch" goes down in history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganShootist Posted January 3, 2008 Author Share Posted January 3, 2008 Amen Thomas. Mike Hart was trying just a little to much to score and ruined a great streak of plays without a fumble. It would have been terrible for him if U of M lost. The new coach is walking into a program with a lot of talent but.... they are loosing: --A four year talented quarterback who will be playing somewhere in the NFL next year --A runner who has long strings of 200 yard games to his credit --probably a Heisman candidate if he wasn't injured --Jake Long probably the best offensive tackle in the country (NFL included) --One of the teams best receivers --About a third of the special teams players I look for the new coach to go shopping for a JC quarterback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
