Fiesta Bowl - Michigan vs TCU

[GroverCleveland]

Built for comfort not speed. Gotta survive those Michigan winters somehow.

That explains what I saw.

And the crap officials strike again. That was not a catch.

Frogs basic pass rush is terrible. They should be blitzing....

I guess they get the benefit of playing 10 conference games including the conference title game. Other than playing Ohio State and Penn State their schedule was a joke.

Michigan SOS is 8th, TCU SOS is 9th. Tell us again how they played trash all year.

According to ESPN FPI the SOS are 39th and 32nd , respectively

Out of curiosity, where do people go to look at this stat? I keep finding multiple sites with different rankings.

Got me. He provided one. I guess people have different metrics.

 

[AustinMem]

I often wonder how the DBs can throw such a fit about it not being PI.

I don’t know how they do the ratings but every playoff show I saw said Michigan’s SOS as nowhere near the top 10.

Keep that clock rolling

 

[BreatheUT]

It's a shame that 1st down pass play Michigan didn't catch wasn't called back.

 

[CPVOL]

Man they ate up a lot of clock

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

was that a mich td? ws that a rough penalty?

 

[turbovol]

TCU is still vulnerable. 13 point lead....now 6.

Again, ZERO pass rush. TCU could easily lose this game.

It's also another example of what happens when you don't put the game away. Had a chance to do that after the punt return to inside the Michigan 20. Couldn't move the ball, settle for a FG and shaky 13-point lead instead of 17.

TCU will need to make first downs now or it will....lose.

This is more like what I saw all year. And just look at Michigan’s schedule. Common sense would tell you it’s not top 10.

 

[HighRockvol]

Funny they didn’t review that first down catch to start the drive

Simmer down the last drive by TCU is the only one that didn't get points in I don't know when.

TCU field goal should seal the deal.

Michigan's overall schedule was weak.

 

[GroverCleveland]

What the heck were they thinking?

I guess they get the benefit of playing 10 conference games including the conference title game. Other than playing Ohio State and Penn State their schedule was a joke.

ESPN had them at 73 before the OSU game so I wonder if there’s different metrics out there. I can’t imagine they went from 73 to 8 by playing OSU and Purdue.

 

[hUTch2002]

Sonny makes huge mental errors a lot.

 

[BreatheUT]

Good kickoff strategy by Michigan.

 

[TheDeeble]

Really hope TCU doesn’t choke this away.

 

[CPVOL]

Why not use the TO? Waisted some much time

 

[CPVOL]

Holy cow man. Harbaugh holding those time outs like grandmas pearls
