Rumor mill has it that it is Carr's last year anyway. But still how do you lose to such a small school. The year is lost right after the first game.Originally posted by digitaldeanComment

For a division IAA team, App state is good. They're 2-time defending champions, and they've been in the mix for the championship every year for a while now.Originally posted by BooHoo
The thing I don't quite get is what is Michigan thinking bringing in a IAA team that's not used to losing and isn't going to be afraid of you. Wouldn't they be better off bringing in a bad division I team that's used to losing to the big boys and is likely to be intimidated? I mean, at least if you lose to the latter team you don't have the stigma of losing to a Div IAA team.
Particularly since everyone and their brother knew that although Michigan has a promising offense this year, they're at best suspect defensively. If you're going to be bring in a sacrificial lamb for a tune-up, don't bring in a sacrificial lamb with an explosive, dynamic offense. A fair bit of the shame in maize and blue today falls to the AD making a mistake scheduling this team in this game.</delurk>Comment

In the eyes of the public, all I-AA teams are the same. It doesn't matter which one it is. You're supposed to beat them.
So why bring in the best of the I-AA? It's more risk and no more reward."I've got one word for you- Dallas, Texas, Super Bowl"- Jermichael FinleyComment

Michigan may still be the best team in college football.
College football needs a playoff.
How would you like it if the Packers had a clunker game on opening day, and it eliminated them from playoff consideration?Comment

Kidding.
The problem with a "playoff" scenario is that they have to play more games. Isn't the most important thing for these guys to be in class and get a degree?
How do "playoffs" help that?Comment

I'm a Michigan grad and I used to be a fan, but I often find Michigan fans to be obnoxious and very much fair-weather. Thus over the years I have become much less a passionate fan of that program. This is mostly due to the many whiny fans. They complain incessantly and seem to forget that these players are a bunch of 20 year old kids. So the fans have turned me off from this program.
In fact, I must say I kind of am glad App State won. Why not? Let the little team knock of the smug IA team. It's more fun than Michigan winning a squeaker and the fans bitching anyway."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."
