Michigan Gets Asses Kicked After Defacing Spartan Stadium With Spike
Can we talk about how weird and stupid this is?

Tom Izzo, In Makeup, Plays Accordion With KISS At MSU Midnight Madness

Indiana's Shane Wynn Goes 75 Yards On Reverse, Embarrasses Michigan St.
Michigan State is supposed to be one of the best teams in the country, but they looked ridiculous in the second quarter today against Indiana as they allowed the Hoosiers' Shane Wynn to go 75 yards for a touchdown on a reverse. They had plenty of chances to tackle Wynn; it seems they just chose no...
Michigan Tailgater Gives Pregame Speech Like He's A Real Player
Michigan's had a pretty tough go of it so far this season, so the team was no doubt needing some extra motivation heading into last weekend's game against Penn State. They did not get that motivation from this bro's rousing pregame speech, though, because this bro is not on the football team. He's j...

Michigan Students Rally Against AD Dave Brandon's Incompetence

Michigan AD Blames Communication For Re-Insertion Of Concussed Player
Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon released a lengthy statement early Tuesday morning blaming "a serious lack of communication" for the re-insertion of a concussed quarterback into Saturday's game against Minnesota....
Michigan's Problem Isn't Commercialism; Michigan's Problem Is It Stinks
Recently, I've been reading about Michigan's attendance woes (which only really count as "woes" if you consider a college selling out 95 percent of a 100,000-seat stadium at $75+, plus an unspecified donation per ticket, woeful), and it occurs to me that lay people and economists think very differen...
Michigan Head Coach Brady Hoke: "I Don't Make Decisions On Who Plays"
Brady Hoke deflected criticism about the handling of dazed quarterback Shane Morris Saturday during his weekly press conference today, claiming the Michigan head coach doesn't "make decisions on who plays, who doesn't play." When asked if Morris—who took a nasty, and illegal, shot to the head but wa...
Brady Hoke's Dangerous Incompetence So Bad ESPN Announcers Denounce It
Michigan quarterback Shane Morris took a nasty, and illegal, hit to the skull in the fourth quarter of last night's loss to Minnesota. Not only was Morris immediately re-inserted into the game, but Wolverines head coach Brady Hoke claimed " I didn't know if [Morris] had a concussion or not."...
Here Is A Sad Gallery Of Sad, Sad Michigan Fans
Michigan got its ass handed to it by Minnesota today in front of a dwindling crowd of people, many of whom got in for free. Here are some of those sad, sad fans....
Michigan Pretends It Isn't Desperate To Give Away Tickets
I won't make fun of Michigan football for practically giving away tickets to keep its 100,000-plus attendance streak alive. The team's crummy, Saturday's opponent is Minnesota, and even a storied program has to hustle sometimes. But I will make fun of Michigan football for being so sensitive that it...
Michigan State Beats EMU So Badly They Forget How To Play Football

Angry Michigan Fan Calls Radio Station, Loses His Damn Mind

Eastern Michigan's Cinder Block-Smashing Intro Could Have Been Better
In theory, smashing a cinder block wall to kick off the college football season is pretty cool. One, two, three swings, the wall collapses, and the team runs onto the field as everyone cheers. We learned yesterday that in reality, it is not that cool....
Michigan Wide Receiver Knocks Guy Out With Vicious Sucker Punch
Michigan wide receiver Csont'e York was suspended indefinitely after news broke that he was allegedly involved in an assault that took place on July 18. Now, the Ann Arbor police department has released video of York destroying a guy with a sucker punch outside of an Ann Arbor bar....
Pint-Sized Weezer Cover Band Comes Undone In 30 Seconds
This four-piece band from Michigan's Grosse Pointe Music Academy already seems nervous to be playing at a recital in front of people, but they start their cover of Weezer's "Undone—The Sweater Song" with no problem. But soon, some faulty equipment stops everything....
