I watched gamecast at work until it was 21-0. Did some work, came back and it was 21-14. Not looking at that thing again

Denard Robinson has a bunch of that in a few series before leaving with an injury.

Our slow start is going to really hurt us today. Pankratz looked nervous, some dumb penalties and a few dropped balls by Jorden could end up being the difference. Michigan's D is not good at all. When executed, our offense looks good. We could really benefit from a larger running back with speed (who wouldn't benefit from that?).

It's not over, but there's still a lot of football left to play. I'm cautiously optimistic about the 2nd half. It's been ugly, but they havn't been able to to put us away. They keep letting us hang around, which is always dangerous.

Looking better thru the 2nd quarter. Pankratz has settled down and we're only down 2 scores...and get the 2nd half kickoff.

Our tackling...ugh. Need consistency there...

GO FALCONS!!! ROLL ALONG!

That could be the theme of the season so far!

Pankratz settled down and made some nice throws on that 1st TD drive. The second was a great play by Pronty.

The thing that still disgusts me is the PUTRID tackling. And I'm not talking about being out athleted either. I'm talking about how all of our guys coming up to tackle and throwing their bodies shoulder first at the ball carrier. Time and time again we're having tackles broken because we don't even TRY to wrap up and drive through the ball carrier. Fundamentally the tackling is just garbage. *blech*

If we can start to wrap up, and they don't bring Robinson back, we may be able to get a couple stops defensively. Probably going to need turnovers though to win this thing.

a safety because of a bad long snap.... fantastic

[goofyeuph]

there's a reason I said cautiously optimistic...

[musicman2343]

thanks refs for that BS pass interference call... clearly uncatchable

as i just text brother, who is at the game, "what is it, BG looks at a Michigan receiver and we get a call?" I personally don't think any of the three interference calls we've gotten have been right.

on a side note, I am getting really sick of the victors.

[VDub26Falcon]

But no flag on scUM right there...Jesus

[hammb]

That was a BS non-call there! Not that it matters at this point, but good god...

[Falconboy]

Wow such bs on the non call of PI.
