The Worst of Possible Losses
What a weekend! The Rangers lose game 3 and 4, but get it done last night. The Cowboys looked absolutely incapable of beating anybody. Sparty takes the whoop stick out on Michigan and I get to hear it from my little brother. Although it was not nearly as much as it would have been if it weren’t for last season. But the worst, I mean absolute worst loss of the weekend took place far away from here and on the east cost. Alabama gets beat, handily I might add, by South Carolina.
As soon as I saw that, the familiar feelings of dread, pain, and anguish arrived. The GD Buckeyes are ranked #1. My wife’s smugness is almost unbearable. She continually reminds me that they have beaten us many times recently and now that they are #1 she starts paying attention.
On to Iowa, I hate them. I hate hate hate them! Second to OSU, I hate them. Some of my most painful memories are of Iowa beating Michigan. Chuck Long is persona non grata in my mind. The Hawkeyes make me ill. Speaking of ill, our defense is sickening. Can we tackle anybody in the backfield? I know they are young and hurt, but that is an excuse for not tackling? If I am not mistaken they teach that at the Pee Wee level. If we are going to improve on last years performance, now is the time to show it. Homecoming at the Big House against Iowa sets up for a good game. I know we will come out firing and Iowa should be down 14 points before they know what hit them. On the other hand, they had a bye week and probably watch the MSU game with great interest. Now that the weaknesses have been exposed, can they take advantage of it. I feel that they can and will to a point. Michigan is going to be coached up for this one. They have so many things to work on I hope they get to it all. Improvement over last week is not only requested but required. That was an embarrassing game. Not that it wasn’t a surprise, it was still embarrassing. Another season of being told that my boys are overrated and that RichRod must go is rapidly approaching.
That is why they play the games, get after it Blue! Iowa is looking to smack you around in your own house. Step up and lay the Smack Down on them.
Michigan 28
Iowa 24
