It's science. Raj has a set of dials you could run a nuclear powerplant on: click for big A Sopwith update. Sopwith has privately shared the source of his information with us and has been spot-on so far, so here's the update if you aren't an obsessive message-boarder: 1. "Follow the Money" won't lead anywhere. The money indeed came from Stalions' personal funds. Stop biting your fingernails off. 2. No coaches/staff knew anything other than he appeared to be a R...

Indiana Links: Preview, The Podcast, FFFF Offense (chart), FFFF Defense (chart). Something's been missing from Michigan gamedays since the free programs ceased being economically viable: scientific gameday predictions that are not at all preordained by the strictures of a column in which one writer takes a positive tack and the other a negative one… something like Punt-Counterpunt. PUNT By Bryan MacKenzie@Bry_Mac There has been a lot of confusion, consternation, amusement, and anger over ...

Team Maize defeated Team Blue down at the Big House today in Michigan Football's 2022 Spring Game by a final score of 22-21, winning on a two-point conversion and an ultimate fourth down defensive stand. The weather was cold and chilly and Michigan was without the likes of stars Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards, but a number of young players and new additions made themselves felt in the narrative of the game.

I was going through tweets/videos of the postgame incident this morning because I was determined to figure out how Ja'Den McBurrows ended up in that situation. I think I have it figured out. In this video from TomVH you can see two players head up the tunnel while MSU is headed in, Gemon Green and Ja'Den McBurrows after him:

2/25/2022 – Notre Dame 4, Michigan 1 – 25-8-1 (16-4-0-3 B1G)  2/26/2022 – Notre Dame 2, Michigan 1 – 25-9-1 (16-5-0-3 B1G)  Playing Notre Dame in hockey is a decent microcosm of what it's like to play any team in the NCAA Hockey Tournament. In my five years covering the Michigan hockey team, one thing has always been true about playing Notre Dame: you have to get the first goal in order to have a good chance of winning. If you get the first goal, you force Notre Dame to open it up...

The Mines Of Midrange 2/18/2021 – Michigan 71, Rutgers 64 – 15-1, 10-1 Big Ten Heres a famous tweet. I...worked on this story for a year...and...he just...he tweeted it out. This is how your author felt when last nights broadcast began with the announcers relaying Steve Pikiells take on the game, which was "were going to jack up a bunch of heavily contested off-the-dribble twos and see how it goes." The announcers said it a little differently, leaving out the heavily contested jacks so they...
