    No surprise. Its a complete lock of discipline on both sides of the ball. On top of that, I dont' care how RichRod loses his composure so much on the sideline. With a young team/player...that stuff doesn't go over well IMO. Just my two cents...

    I agree, losing your head like that with a VERY young team isnt the best thing to do

    UM still hanging in there...what a shame the D is so terrible.
  • Hb31187
    This Iowa defense is nto as good as advertised IMO
  • Cleveland Buck
    Michigan's padding the stats in garbage time. And Forcier looks much better than Robinson when playing a real defense.
  • Hb31187
    Garbage time? They have their starters in the game

    And robinson was 13-18 with a td and a pick, and 100yards rushing. Its not like he played like a bum

    I don't even know if a bye week to help heal the secondary will help much. Thought it might but I just don't see it happening. The thing about Robinsons progression into next year is that RRod faces the real possibility of not being there, new coach/system could set what progress the O has made backwards again. I dunno
  • Cleveland Buck
    Down 21 points in the 4th quarter is garbage time.

    LOL so you think the starters are in and not trying just because theyre up? Give me a break....

    No, but if you think the defense isn't in much more "safe", not quite prevent but safe, zones/coverages when up 3 TDs in the 4th, you are mistaken.

    I bet Iowa isn't blitzing as much and not taking as many chances, its a whole lot easier to move the ball against a said defense.

    Id agree theyre playin more zone then earlier in the game, but its not like theyve mailed it in and have the back ups in

    I agree, but it truly is easier to move the ball against a soft zone/keep it in front of you defense.

    Iowa's defense did what it had to do today, the game isn't over, but you didn't see Michigan running/passing all over them like they have against all teams except MSU.

    Mallet is out of the game (don't know why) but left 10-15 for 96 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT.

    Cam Newton, 22 att, 185 yards, 2 TDs...ARK has no answer.

    Nearing the end of the 3rd and ARK has 416 offensive yards, AUB has 345...

    Idk...Michigan doubled the amount of rushign yards and then some that Iowa gives up and havent been running since Denard came out of the game. And are approaching 500 yards of offense on the day

    TD Forcier!!
  • Cleveland Buck
    Forcier gives Michigan a much better chance against good teams than Robinson does. He should really be the starter the rest of the season.
