Michigan WR Junior Hemingway: A Movable Feast of Receiving Yards
Coming into the 2011 season, it was thought Roy Roundtree would be the go-to guy for the Michigan Wolverines receiving corps. After all, he broke the school record for single game receiving yards (246) versus the Illini last year and fell just 65 yards shy of a 1,000 yard season. But Roundtree only has 8 grabs for 127 yards on the season and it's senior Junior Hemingway … [Read more...] about Michigan WR Junior Hemingway: A Movable Feast of Receiving Yards
Michigan’s Denard Robinson: Overrated, Below Average Passer
Michigan Wolverines QB Denard Robinson is exciting and fun to watch. But he's not a "dual threat quarterback." That term is getting thrown around by the media way too liberally these days.

#11 Michigan Wolverines vs. Northwestern Wildcats: Brutally Honest Game Preview
If you ever needed any more evidence that Greg Robinson was in fact THE WORST Defensive Coordinator in college football history, look no further than what the Michigan Wolverines defense has done this year. They've only given up 10 whole points in their last three games, and the unit is more opportunistic and turnover-forcing (more on that here) Sure, this unit has their two … [Read more...] about #11 Michigan Wolverines vs. Northwestern Wildcats: Brutally Honest Game Preview
#22 Wolverines 28, SDSU Aztecs 7: The Michigan Difference
There was a Saturday like this last season in Big Ten football. Where no one in the conference played anybody at all. I think it may have been the same week- the one preceding the start of conference play, so everyone could fatten up with a won and get their confidence up for league play. Directional Michigan looked pretty bad in the morning games as the Central Michigan … [Read more...] about #22 Wolverines 28, SDSU Aztecs 7: The Michigan Difference
