Browns fan? Check.
Notre Dame fan? Check.
Ohio State fan? Check.
This is too much to take this season, and I mean that seriously.
I was at the Linkin Park concert last night and I was hearing UNLV was beating Wisconson at 2:00. Now THAT would have made my weekend.
Wow, tough to be a fan right now. I have the Indians and Buckeyes left to support.

Carr should not be fired, he is MICHIGAN. Two games don’t make a season or a carrier.
Evidently the defense is much slower, specially the secondary, and the offense is not playing up to their capabilities. It comes down to every man in every unit doing their job, and doing it well.
Good thing Notre Dame is coming to the Big House. They bring a more or lees a "conventional stile" offense. That should help refocus the Michigan defense. Hopefully they will play more zone to help with their lack of speed. But their DE’s have to start putting pressure on the QB’s. That is the key for a zone defense. If that doesn’t happen it’s going to be an interesting afternoon.
ND's defense surrendered 33 points to Georgia and 31 points to Penn State. They are giving up 340.5 Yds/G, 252 Pass Yds and 429 Rush Yds per game. Against this defense Michigan should simplify their blocking schemes, formations and passing routs and just play Michigan football. Running over them north and south, mixing in some play action roll out passes, quick five step drop passes and some shotgun formation passes. They have to stretch that defense with the TE.
Remember, the Big Ten conference is still up for grabs and if they manage to win it, everybody will be saying what a great coach L. Carr is.
Still believe. Go BLUE.

LOL, good luck to your boy Carr. He's going to need a LOT of it.

Carr is 6-6 with Ohio State, 4-4 with Notre Dame, and 9-3 with Michigan State in his tenure. He's skating on thin ice.

I think actually he has fallen through the ice and is flailing around trying to climb out!

Remember that a National Championship supports a lot of weight.

I always like it when any Pac-10 team beats anybody else... in particular Miami and Michigan.

"...football-crazed region..." That’s stating it lightly

I remember when it was just enough to wear the "Tuck Fexas" T-shirts to Dallas, all the baby-poo orange folks would get butt hurt, but squeezing a guy until his beanbag pops is a new one. There's always been violence and vandalism (we used to strip our cars of OU items at away games due to vandalism), I think this one just "sticks out" due to the nature of the injury....
