I blame the problems on the fact that Arizona and Az State bolted the original WAC for the promise of Sushi and Leftwing politics in the PAC.

The standard for overturning a call on the field is something like "incontrovertible video evidence that the call was incorrect".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9Z4Pc5XmlM&fmt=18

The call on the field in this case was 100% correct. Not only is there no way to over-turn it based on the replay, there isn't even any real doubt about it.

I have to wonder what the replay guys are doing. They over-turn this play, and then turn around and do NOT overturn another play, where there was clear proof that the call on the field was wrong, and manage to get both calls wrong.

Pac-10 refs...they have a history of being idiots.

Right now I'd say they are enjoying the hookers and blow they got from UDub for making those two calls.

Hey is everything ok in Wolverineville?  I know you are not there but I am wondering if the natives are getting restless.

The bandwagon fans have deserted them.  Right now in the Freep forums the Michgan fans are mostly posting on how much Michigan State sucks as a University; I haven't seen anyone call for Rich Rod's head yet.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

The MSU game went about like people should have expected it to; MSU has a great run defense, and UM's freshman quarterback was unable to take advantage of the crappy corners well enough to make MSU back off from stuffing the run.  The Iowa game was lost because of poor RR decision-making, but then he is the kind of coach that will do that sometimes, and it comes with the territory.

I'd say the bigger concern for Michigan fans is that the defense gives up bug plays and does not seem to be getting any better.  Shades of last year, even with a new DC.

You actually read the FreeP forums?  I thought only mouthbreathers were ever there.

That kid's gonna be very fucking dangerous in two years.  I know I'm not looking forward to it.

If the could teach Denard Robinson, the other Frosh QB, to make better decisions in the throwing game, he could be just as dangerus, if not more so.  When you watch him in a game, it is almost like he is in bullet time, reacting and cutting with a quickness that doesn't look humanly possible - and then he can turn on the speed.  He is possibly the fastest person to ever don the Michgan helmet.

Edit:  with most freshman QBs a good game is to throw at least as many TDs as interceptions.  With Robinson, it is to throw at least as many completions as interceptions!
