September 3, 2005: A Luau tailgate before Michigan thrashes Northern Illinois 33-17. More pictures and a recap here.
Tailgate themes have been released for all 2019 home games. You can find them here: http://umtailgate.com/2019-schedule-and-themes
The NCAA Tournament is the friggin’ best. Round one is done, and there were just a few hiccups in an otherwise chalky bracket, but I’ve got a funny feeling about Round 2 - just don’t want UM to be a victim of it.
Current NCAA runner up Michigan looking to make it to their 3rd straight sweet 16 when they tip off against Florida at 5:15.
Tom Izzo is an asshole (similar to Brian Kelly) with a Napoleon complex. What he does probably flirts with the line of acceptable, which is always moving based on the latest “rant of the people” on twitter. Twenty years from now, when the NCAA Tournament gives National Championship trophies to all 68 teams, yelling and pointing will likely be outlawed. But for now, I think it’s important to remember that Aaron Henry could beat the living shit out of Tom Izzo, so if Cassius is late restraining the angry little bastard, Tommy will be in the hospital while they appoint Tom Sizemore to oversee the investigation. Sparty plays the Gophers looking for their first escape of the opening weekend of the NCAAs in 4 seasons. Tip off 30 min after Michigan-Florida ends.
Over 100+ entries in the 2019 UMTailgate.com tournament challenge, and only 1 person made it through round one without losing a team from round two. Hats off Caroline: 27/32 and the most possible points remaining.
Enjoy the games and GO BLUE!
