Says he passed for over 1000 yards and 12 touchdowns.

Anyone else having a hard time selling tickets this year? I live in Texas so have to sell a few games per year that I can’t get to.

The Ark St tickets didn’t sell for me at $20 each and USC this weekend isn’t going well either.

It takes a lot for me to change the channel from football to baseball, but the Tigers are playing their butts off to try and get to the playoffs.

The KC series was seriously fun to watch.

M&BR has the latest on a 2025 Indiana commit.

The latest in today's Recruiting Rumor Mill:

Thinking he comes up big. … wouldn’t be surprised if someone else throws a pass as well !

Hoping for blue jersey white pants combo that was teased last year. https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/new-uniform-combination

Here we go and just my opinion:

USC (30% win probability)....likely loss and a huge challenge; they are Texas with a weaker OL
Minnesota (70% win probability)...win
@Washington (55% win probability)....tossup, they lost a lot of talent but that is a tough environment and Fisch is a hell of a coach (he would rock at UM)
@ILL (45% win probability)...loss; hate Big Bert but they look to be much better
MSU (60% win probability)....has to be a win; they have a better QB but we have better talent across the board
Oregon (25% win probability)..loss
@Indiana (50% win probability)...tossup and they have definitely improved; Cignetti is a damn good coach
NW (75% win probability)...they are awful
@OSU...loss; currently 19.5 point dogs and OSU has more talent across the board

My good news is that we won on Saturday and have a chance to win this week. I will be rooting for every player on the home team.

My sister's birthday is Saturday, and we're planning a surprise dinner for her.

Michael goes back to the hospital on Friday for another surgery, but we should only be in for one day, and this should be his last surgery.

As a few of you know, I have given up obvious sugar in my diet. I don't eat cookies, candy, cake, donuts, soft drinks, or other apparent sugars. This all started last Thanksgiving. My A1C had crept up to 6.1, which concerned me. I did blood work last week, and the A1C has dropped to 5.8. I'm well on my way to my goal of 5.6.

The Tigers are playing meaningful baseball in September.

What's your good news?
Go Blue!

Other than NW, I'm not convinced this UM team can win another game, including MN and MSU. Both seem to have much better OCs than we have. This seems crazy to me in light of our recent success. 3-9 or 4-8 seems very realistic right now.

Hard to disagree and I was concerned he would blitz too much.

Klatt notes that Michigan's blitz rate went from more or less average—29%, 48th nationally—to Winkball. That's a 48% blitz rate, 4th nationally. This is precisely what I was concerned about before the season: a superficially similar playbook being piloted by a veteran NFL coordinator who doesn't really respect the differences between the college game and the NFL

How will Michigan go about trying to beat USC on Saturday? That's what today's podcast is all about. Is 'Smash' the way to go? Was it a bad move naming Alex Orji the starter on Monday? What is the road to victory for the maize and blue?
Breakdown
Open 00:00-2:33
Road to victory 2:34-5:40
Naming Orji the starter 5:41-17:43

Feedback 29:21-1:20:24

Michigan football QB commit Carter Smith had a big game for his team last weekend in a 43-13 Bishop Verot victory.

Taking a look at notable performances from future Wolverines from this past weekend:

Savion Hiter, the No. 1 running back in the 2026 class, will visit Michigan on Oct. 26 (versus Michigan State).

More here:

Wink Martindale said he would find balance between Michigan's successful scheme and his own.
He has blitzed on half of passing downs through three games, far above Michigan's average. Is it helping or hurting the defense? Let's go by the numbers.

I said this a few times in the commnents during the offseason when it appeared Orji was going to be the guy. My question: Why not just go full on Florida/Tebow offense? You've got a gifted runner at QB, 2 excellent backs to go with him so option football should be easy money, and just bludgeon people, using 4th down battery ram plays as much as logically needed???? This approach has made the most sense to me all along. Granted, it's going to look God-awful, to any WR recruit out there, but at this point we are selling the future anyway. thoughts?

is just a brilliant step. I wish we had forward thinkers like that in our Athletic Department, particularly given our massive season ticket base of 93k.

Adapt.

Seriously. Take a breather. Step away from the keyboard. The sun will rise tomorrow and The Den will always withstand the nuclear winter that is a Michigan football game week.

The quarraling after a win is embarrassing. Please, for your mental health and mine, R E L A X.

The four-star tight end from Center Valley (Pa.) Southern Lehigh committed to Michigan in July but he has a whole round of visits coming up.

Olesh will be at the Georgia/Alabama game, Ohio State at Oregon, the WhiteOut game at Penn State, the USC at Michigan game this weekend and a date to be determined at Notre Dame. He remains committed to the Wolverines.
