They're Just Better

Playing a perfect football game is a difficult thing.  It's hard to be perfect in such an aggressive sport.  To beat a better football team you need to play perfect and hope the better team makes a few mistakes.   The game today came down to one little play, that didn't go in Michigan's favor.  After scoring the first TD and then missing the extra point, on OSU's first play from center Dobbins fumbles the ball and it bounces right up to him for a 35 gain,  If that ball bounces sideways like most fumbles, it could have been an entire different story.   It wasn't and the blow out was on because Michigan couldn't even slow the Ohio State offense and made far too many mistakes to even be competitive with the #1 team in the nation.

Michigan got dominated by the OSU offensive line.  I'm surprised OSU attempted a pass becuase they sure didn't need to.   Even when the no name QB came in, Michigan couldn't stop them.   This game isn't on coaching, its just OSU has better players by a landslide.  

This isn't going to change folks, OSU is going to continue to recruit 5 star NFL players and Michigan will continue to recruit 3 and 4 stars that have 4.0 grade points.  

I'm not going to do cheers and jeers as there was too many jeers to point out.  

Michigan did do a good job on Chase Young and the offensive game plan was solid.  Michigan was picking apart the OSU defense before Shea fumbled the snap and the WR's started dropping the ball.  Anyway you want to slice it, Michigan was never going to win a shoot out.

Time to play in a neutral site scrimmage and plan for next year's second place finish to OSU.   The athletic department needs to call the ACC and see if they have an opening.
