Dang got burned on that corner blitz again

 

[Gilthorp57]

What a fun game. I think some of you are too used to watching PJ drain the clock. This couldn’t be any more fun and these are two good teams making plays and duking it out.

This is refreshing I will admit

No clue what Michigan is trying to do on defense. This is insane.

They needed to blitz to get pressure and that leaves receivers one on one. Must tackle. And they have not...

 

[Gophergrandpa]

Michigan’s DC keeps dialing up pressure. High risk strategy in what was a 3 point game. Not a strategy I associate with this Michigan team. Leaving itself vulnerable to big plays so often. Weird.

I think they felt they had to bring pressure after Duggan had all day to throw the first few series.

They didn’t need to blitz in that situation to get a stop.

 

[GoForGold]

This is a Big 12 game. Both teams will probably have near 600 yards by game end.

Advantage TCU. Big Ten teams aren't built for this type of game.

 

[Jack jones]

Hopefully PJ is watching this game. See how to beat Mich. by throwing the ball.

Feels like the NBA version of college FB= no D.

It sure feels like a field goal won't be enough for TCU.

 

[Sparlimb]

If 51 isn't enough points to win, you don't deserve to win.

 

[upnorthkid]

No idea Why TCU didn’t throw the ball with 1v1 coverage and a 6 inch height advantage there

Sure....it's fun to see big plays and lots of points. But most of that is due to mistakes and terrible defense.

 

[Gopherchase]

If Michigan didn’t shit the bed on the first two series, there would already be 100 on the board combined — crazy.

Mistakes, or the other team making big plays I don’t know either way or really have an opinion but a lot of talent out there.

 

[Panthadad2]

McCarthy sure is dynamic, but he bails out of the pocket really really fast among other issues. Definitely beatable.

He’s very middle of the road overall. Can make some plays but also some major gaffes. Decided early he’s going to try go hero mode and it’s worked some and killed them some

 

[Gopherchase]

Just took a quick look TCU average is 40 points a game Michigan 35 so you throw in two defensive touchdowns for TCU and this is kinda how these teams roll on offense. Hard to defend.

If teams entirely forget to tackle, that’s not talent. Guys are just not playing assignment sound at all this half. Hasn’t been because they’re making them miss. Just my opinion

 

[Gophergrandpa]

McCarty’s arm is unbelievable. His downfield throws are on a rope. Michigan’s defensive strategy—leaving a lot of guys out on an island—seems very second-guessable

 

[stocker08]

Big plays made due to big mistakes.

 

[Panthadad2]

Michigan doing RUTM at the goal line with a little RB is a total gift to TCU.

 

[stocker08]

Time management is not good.

 

[Panthadad2]

Question. Why didn't the clock stop when McCarthy ran out of bounds around the 7ish yard line?

There was 4:29 on the clock and it was momentarily stopped. It started back up again with no ref signaling it to start. Wasted 25 seconds.

 

[Iceland12]

Whole bunch of players have been falling untouched in this game.

 

[Mulligan]

PJ rightfully gets crap at times for wasting time, but Michigan is sure casual getting the plays in and lining up considering they're behind with little time left.

 

[upnorthkid]

Question. Why didn't the clock stop when McCarthy ran out of bounds around the 7ish yard line?

Too much time on the clock still. Think it’s gotta be under 2 (or maybe even 1) minute prior to that in college

Between the NFL and college football I can never keep straight when the clock starts or doesn’t start when the player goes out of bounds.

Buddy of mine has his drivers license. He used it as his fake ID for a while.

My brother in law lived a few blocks from him when going to Marquette. The building Dahmer lived in was listed in the off campus housing guide.

I don’t love big 12 flag football games but at least this came down to the bitter end.
