Michigan and Detroit Common Opponents

Posted on January 29, 2014 by Tim

This list is a slightly more extensive list than it was last year, but still pretty limited. These two schools head in different directions – Michigan preparing for the Big Ten Conference while also playing out the final year of … Continue reading →

The Drop-off: Michigan offense

Posted on October 17, 2013 by Tim

The Michigan Wolverines haven’t put together a successful season between the first two attempts at the Division-1 level. U-M started with a club roster in 2012, and added a few key pieces over the offseason. From the eyeball test alone, … Continue reading →

Posted on May 15, 2013 by Tim

So, I wrote this Sunday morning…. but haven’t had access to the internet until now. Act like it’s prompt still. Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades, so the Titans’ closer-than-expected loss to Notre Dame… well, it doesn’t count. … Continue reading →
