Fuck me in the goat ass. I can't handle these next 3 minutes. If the Newports don't kill me the Wolverines will.
This game has been unbelievable… an instant classic either way.

And a bad no call for targeting seals it. Bullshit.

Well, at least it was fun. :razz That non-touchdown in the first half will be talked about; a very poor call in my eyes.

Harbaugh got outcoached today. The opening drive should have been 3 points, and the refs fucked us for 4 points. But we also fucked ourselves with piss poor tackling. No way you can win a championship like that.

They reviewed a should have been targeting call on the 4th down. Farrow Stewart led with his helmet.

New rule: the OSU game is the new championship game. Michigan forgets there's a game after the end of November.

I give McCarthy a lot of credit; he showed tenacity under great adversity. Kept the game more interesting than I anticipated. He is one helluva gamer.

Michigan's defense turned in a disappointing performance for sure.

That targeting review was a coin toss, in my judgment. It was almost cruel of the refs, though, to give Michigan fans hope of extended life and then determine no targeting occurred! Even if the call had gone Michigan's way, the odds of scoring a TD would've been long.

Naturally, Michigan had to lose by less than a touchdown in a shoot out after that horrible fumble on 1st & goal from the 1 yard line, a snap that should've never been necessary. Michigan made way more mistakes than the refs, though.

Michigan was defeated by themselves, with some help from a horrid officiating crew...TCU was the beneficiary...

Lowered head… hits with crown of helmet dead square on player with the balls helmet. Textbook targeting. He got part of his neck for good measure with it too.

I'm not interested in blaming refs. Shit calls happen in all games. Michigan knew what was on the line and didn't bring it with them. Such is life. They can't hang with the big boys.

If I were the lead ref, I would've called it targeting. Some review angles looked worse than others. Still would've been a big hill to climb to get a score.

The better team didn't win today, and that's unfortunate. Captain JJ will lead us to the promised land next year.
