Pfft...Robinson is the best athlete in the Big 10.

Blaec Walker is really struggling. I feel sorry for the kid. Obviously there's no one else they can put in, so he's left out there swinging in the wind. 2 penalties so far today

Pankratz is not our #2 QB. I would personally put our two other freshman Qb ahead of him. There is a reason why Clawson didn't name a starter until game time. I think Pankratz is like 4th on our depth chart. He looks lost out there. Only reason he had 100 yards passing last week was from YAC yards. Forget the redshirt we need to play our best athletes.

Indeed. We're not capable right now of competing with upper mid-level bcs teams. In a couple years or so maybe. A couple more recruiting years by Clawson will be needed to recover from the ineptness of a GB led program.

UT's passing O must be pretty potent right now. On side note on our defense. Can we not over pursue on every stinking play?

Dernard Robinson is done for the day. Not like it matters.

You do realize that we play Buffalo next week, right?

We would have a shot in this game if we had a competent offense. Unfortunately missing the OL guys really shows against a Big 10 Defense. Throw in the fact that Pankratz looks REALLY lost out there and we don't have a shot.

I'm still optimistic for next week because I'm pretty sure we'll have Schilz back. No way we'd start Pankratz if Schilz were gonna be out for any length of time. I think it's pretty clear that he was our 3rd QB, at best. We just don't wanna waste the RS for a game against Michigan that we don't win either way.

We need to run some QUICK hitting plays, followed with mis-direction. Michigan has some HUGE guys on their O-line who are pushing our defenders everywhere. The best thing we can do right now is keep our defense off the field for a few minutes.

Not a good year to play Michigan. Why don't we play Indiana, Purdue, Northwestern, Minnesota and Illinois more often?

Man. I thought Pankratz was better than this. He can't hit the broad side of a barn today.

Our best game plan should be to get Geter in space as much as possible. So far all we've done is try to force passes to blanketed receivers.
