Though you may be at your limit for 9/11 rehashes this week, I couldn’t help but make this week’s Way Back Whens-day refer to the day America was attacked. Coming off of the only week where a game has been suspended due to weather, I would like to take you back to the only [...]

Way Back Whens-day: September 11, 2001
Way Back When-sday: September 30th, 2001
Ah yes, summertime is dwindling down, and autumn is upon us.
The Tigers are recovering from a 5-game losing streak by beating up on Sox of a different color. Last night, Bonderman, Ledezma, Rodney, and Jones combined to allow just two runs, then went out and beat up some smaaart kids at a Haaavard Bar. [...]

Out-matched Wolverines Embarassed in Citrus Bowl
First, for those that have never made the journey, let me tell you all a little bit about the Citrus Bowl. It is similar to going to a baseball game at old Tiger Stadium. The parking areas are a mix of gravel and grass. Local shops include a ‘drug’ store, [...]
The Navarre-Ending Story
In the End, It Comes Down to Steak or Fruit
No clock problems, no blocked field goals…just an old fashioned ass-whoopin’ at the hands of the Buckeyes. At the end of the first half, it was 23-0, and despite making a valiant effort to make a comeback in the second half, 5 turnovers at the hands [...]
Birthdays and Buckeyes
The Big Day
One year ago today, I sat down to scan two photo albums filled with pictures and build UMTailgate.com. I remember sitting in front of my computer with Bill at my side, scanning pic after pic for hours on end as Bill created his yearly collage. Never in my wildest imagination did I think [...]
Cheesy: Michigan 20, Wisconsin 17
Behold the Power of Special Teams
I had more fun grasping the udders of a 20 foot tall cow with my mouth full of cheese curds than I had watching the brutal performance of the Wolverines on Saturday. Two blocked punts and a bouncing ball gave the game to the 8-2 Wolverines, 20-17. The post-game catch [...]
Owning the Jug: Michigan 31, Minnesota 10
Little Brown Jug
The oldest trophy in college football remains in Ann Arbor as the Wolverines beat the Golden Gophers 31 to 10 in front of 110,000+ fans at the Big House. Michigan ‘established the run’ gaining 300 yards on the ground as Coach Carr played a little game of musical quarterbacks bringing in Jermaine Gonzales [...]

MSU 26, Michigan 24 (In Magical OT)
How can I screw thee?…let me count the ways
The game ended at Spartan Stadium in dramatic fashion. The weird thing is that the game actually ended more than once. The Spartan’s game winning drive included controversial penaties, game clock fraud, and possibly the most terrible no-call on a holding [...]
North Until You Smell It…West Until You Step In It
Sparty Awaits
It what is typically known as one of the biggest rivalries in the college football, the Michigan vs. Michigan Agricultural College game is upon us. Michigan, looking to stay in BCS contention, travels into East Lansing this weekend looking to make yet another statement. Here are some of the famous dates in the series [...]
Hawkeye Halloween
IVictory From the Jaws of Defeat
Stephen and Bubba remained calm throughout as the Wolverines came back from a 20-7 third quarter defecit to defeat the Iowa Hawkeyes 32-26. It was the smallest tailgate since OSU 2000, as five hungover stragglers stumbled into Iowa City for the game. Click here for the post game recap and [...]
