Brian Cook, the mgoblog guy

Brilliant analysis of an iconic scene from CASABLANCA with too much contemporary relevance. “The Germans are but one small enclave, finding themselves within a community that’s filled with less traditional power but greater numbers and far superior zeal.”

never wanted to assassinate the clock guy for a game not involving Michigan before but here we are

Those Harbaugh Michigan staffs were really a mix of complete freaks (not in the good way) and generational coaching talents

Every time they cut to Izzo I think about the technical Dusty May got for being too suave

Unfortunate to only be up 16.

My hottest playoff ad-break take is that the real Henry VIII could have absolutely done some damage on a football field

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Mick Cronin do crimes watch in high gear

ND injured Michigan's starting goalie, got rewarded with a five minute major on Michigan, and they were the ones repeatedly cross checking players into the boards at the end of it.

truly one of the most pathetic performances I've seen a visiting team deliver

If you were worried that Wisconsin had somehow changed: when the big grumpy white Wisconsin Center wanted a review on an out of bounds call, he did the soccer VAR motion, instead of the finger twirly motion.

oh no i spoke it into existence

Game plan ➡️ in-game execution

"Guys, remember shot fakes. They're going to jump at everything in the paint. Our eyes have to be up. If you can finish, dunk on their head. If it's not there, shot fake it and go through them..."

After a wedgie in the USC-Michigan game, John Fanta claimed it was unverifiable whether that was the first of 2026, but wedgies are (or can be, at least) recorded in PBP now! That was the 94th of the season and fourth of 2026.
