Tilt

Image result for pinball tilt
This might be a dated reference but here it goes.  Back in the day, when pinball was popular, you could find a machine in restaurants, hotels, all over the place.   You could be playing and then all of the sudden the game would stop and pretty much halt your game.   It's called a tilt, similar to the blue screen of death that happens to your PC sometimes.  


Michigan's season went "tilt" on Saturday.   There were a couple of plays that really turned the game/season.    The punt return was just a stupid play that happens sometimes in football.   The fumble by Peters on the goal line was a loss of 3 points.   Those aren't the plays, I'm talking about.  


It was the long pass Wisconsin completed in the 3rd quarter over the shoulder of true freshman Jalen Kelly-Powell and 3rd down hit on Peters that sent him to the hospital.   Tilt - game over.


I've seen the offense under O'Korn, even his sure handed TE's won't catch the ball for him.  Tilt. 


Season now is in full Tilt mode.


Cheers 
  • Nordin made a field goal
  • Michigan's passing game looked decent under Peters
  • Play calling was decent on 1st and 3rd downs
Jeers
  • To many 2nd down poor play calls
  • To many injuries, Isaac looks done for the year
  • Not enough offense
  • A handful of mistake by the defense


I love Don Brown but him blitzing McCray too much opens way too many running lanes that shouldn't be there.


When were behind, 4 yard passes are not going to get it done.  Hats off to Wisconsin whose deep ball were the difference in the game.


I don't even want to think about next weekend.   Can it be possible for Michigan to have a healthy QB in that game ever?  Nope.
