More bad news for a thin defense, as Cissoko is out at Michigan, becoming the 7th loss from the class of 2008 which was mostly a product of the previous regime.  This news, along with the 2007 class, which had unceremonious exits of Mallet, Tony Clemons, and Marell Evans (among others) means that the cupboards [...]

The turn out was again ridiculous as we perused yearbooks from yesteryear and ate large amounts of brisket, pork loin, and jalapeno poppers.
The pictures, and there’s a lot of them, are available here.

The bulk of the Michigan faithful stayed around longer than I expected them to, no doubt clinging to the hope that Tate might have another rabbit left in that winged hat.  The one redeeming quality of losses of this nature?  When games are over just a couple of minutes into the second half, you have [...]

Don’t forget to bring your high school yearbook, old photos, etc. for this weekend’s Old School tailgate.  Food will be a American style potluck.  See you Saturday morning, GO BLUE!, and remember….WE OWN PENN STATE.

MVictors wrote the article that I had already written in my head when Stevie Brown said the Wolverines still had hope for the Rose Bowl.  The only way I think it’s feasible is if we win out, and Iowa and Michigan State find a way to both lose this Saturday…which would be tough since they [...]

Pictures from the Urban themed tailgate are here.  Enjoy!

I was pissed when we scheduled Delaware State.  Of course I know that these things are beyond our control, and that we did our due dilligence to get an FBS opponent, but there’s something slightly embarassing about scheduling a game like this.  It’s diffiult to explain to the not-so-football-savvy co-worker, to outline the complexities of [...]

Soul food is the plan, and I’ve got this blueberry cheesecake flapjack recipe that seems like it will sidle up nicely with a pile of ham that I know is coming and some sausages.  So grab a cheap ticket and get ready for a brown bag morning leading in to what we all hope is [...]

I can’t recall a time when I have ever tailgated in falling snow.  It was cold, wet, and windy, but it didn’t dent our spirit and it didn’t slow down the pregame festivities in Iowa City.  We prepared and devoured five full meals over 36 hours, tailgated for 11 hours straight on Saturday, prepared and [...]

AnnArbor.com’s finest journalist James Dickson wrote an article featuring UMTailgate.com entitled The Road Warriors.  It can be found here.
Pictures (albeit only 17 of them) from the @ MSU tailgate/game are available here.
The All Time Sagarin ratings for NCAA basketball can be found here…you’ll find Michigan basketball two spots BETTER than MSU.  Why?  I have no [...]
