Ask Wiscy if they would take a win this week? This is a young team, they are winning. Try to enjoy it.
The 2005 game was not unlike the 1972 USSR vs. USA basketball game.
That game took 10 years off my life.
I'm trying to imagine the hysteria if JF had presided over another blown lead against one of the league's marquis teams.
Fortunately, at the end of the day: for the second week in a row we got the critical 1st down to put the game away; we got the critical 4th-down stop near the goal line; we got a little luck with a dropped pass that probably should have been the tying TD; and best of all, we beat freaking Michigan.
Not a bad night's work. Special seasons are built on nights like that.
Time enough tomorrow to ask where the offense went in the 2nd half, why Noah Cain didn't see the field for most of the game, and whether we're going to be able to muster the emotional energy to beat a very good and physical Michigan State team on the road after two straight draining wins against top-20 teams.
For tonight though -- take the W and be happy.

It does. There is a significant drop-off from Tua to Jones and the play calling has changed to play-not-to-lose mode.
Better athletes based on what? Not recruiting rankings.
I agree with the sentiment but Michigan State is neither very good nor particularly physical. They might beat us. Big Ten road games are always tough, but it won’t be because they are good.
Every game is different. MSU, MSU, MSU ! 1-0
Some of our “fans” move the goalposts more than the Beaver Stadium Maintenance crew
Yes, and the QB then attempted to jump over the D-line, got totally stuffed, and somehow managed to fumble the ball over the line and into the middle of the endzone.
It was then returned 105 yards the other direction.
It was bizarre.
Our offense has been very hot and cold all season. It's just a present reality.
The defense is tough, but we have holes.
Most predicted 3-5 losses this year. It's gotta be an excellent coaching job to get us to here, 7-0, right?
Is Harbaugh out looking for his next transfer portal quarterback? Shea is gone after this year right? Maybe he can get that Coan kid from Wisconsin
ooh or Brandon Peters from Illinois.....crap wait....

That was hilarious. From “Finest hour”..., to then embarrassing himself with “fear itself.”
Michigan preseason pick to win the Big. Michigan has just as many athletes and older too. If you honestly believe what you wrote, I don't know what you are looking at.
Don't forget TOP. That's always the foundation for any argument that the better team lost.
Minnesota has not played a ranked team all year. Lucked out that Purdue lost 2 offensive players on one play, and we have a bye week before them.
Michigan St. isn't Michigan, but has a bye, could be tough, who knows, another team in an offensive funk, let's see.
Yes. Throw out the past. Hell, even 2017. This is the deepest, most talented team in the Franklin era. I'm anxious to see how the 2020s go with CJF at the helm.
We scored 21 point in the 1st quarter and beat the 2nd best team we play this season. I think were're 10-0 going into OSU. If you think MSU and Minnesota can beat us without many turnovers and a offensive game worse than tonight than you're out of touch.
Did you see the Tennessee coach yell and tug on the face mask of the QB when he returned to the sideline? Not a great optic.
See, you're exactly a typical Michigan fan. Perfectly content with winning battles but not the war. So you can continue to keep track of our record on our home field against you and we'll keep track of division and conference championships. Try looking in the dictionary for definition of championship, as it's a word unknown in Ann Arbor.
Yeah according to the lemmings that follow Michigan football, good losses are better than ugly wins. As Parcells says, you are what your record says you are. Last I checked, PSU is 7-0.
I was thinking of that great scene in the movie "The Great Mancini"...
"One Two Three Cry... One Two Three Cry"
"One Two Three Cry... One Two Three Cry"
Good balance for us kicking their ass in the first half which counts too.
