There was a 10-hour drive ahead of us, so as Mark Moundros broke the plane, we were up and on our way to the concourse. We’re Michigan fans. A win is something we can always take for granted. Beat the crowd, beat the traffic…it’s been a long day, a long weekend in an alcohol induced [...]

Something
Minnesota. 10 Hour Drive. Nick Sheridan. Who’s With Me?!?!?
First, here’s the pics from Purdue. Hook and lateral…ya.
Yes, I’m still alive. Still uninspired. Still waiting for somebody, somewhere, to SHOW ME SOMETHING.
It’s getting old, this losing shit. They say you get used to it, and that’s when the real problems set in. Teams will forget how to win, forget what it’s like to play [...]
Wanna Go To A Road Game?
In a little over a month from now, several of us will transition from our normal everyday lives to a state of unreality. Those unprepared will crumble under the pressure. They will neglect to go to bed early enough the night before. They will forget to pace themselves. They will drink too much. They will [...]
Michigan vs. Kate: Sort of Live Blog…
Life is full of difficult choices. Tonight, it was Kate vs. Michigan. Michigan wins. Kate and I will meet up in TiVoLand this weekend.
Thanks to Rhode Island vs. UMASS, which was a sweet matchup 12 years ago, we missed the tip live from the barn. No matter, because as they switched [...]
The Future is Now
The 89th battle for the Little Brown Jug went to the Wolverines on Saturday, 34-10. Once again, fans were treated to a tale of two halves. A first half of fear and loathing, and a second half of proper adjustments, inspired defense, and taking advantage of the opponent’s weaknesses. If I had [...]

If you need an invite, send an email to tourney2k7@umtailgate.com to let me know who you are, and I will [...]
These Night Games Could End Up Killing Someone
It’s a long drive from Ann Arbor to Minneapolis. It’s a long night when a bar offers 2-for-1 on all drinks from 9pm to midnight. It’s a long tailgate when the game starts at 7pm. It’s a long but satisfying walk from the Michigan sideline to the Minnesota sideline to open that [...]
Predicting the Destination of the Jug
The Hammer:
I’m willing to concede that Minnesota’s offense will be a stiffer test than Wisconsin’s. They have more balance and a somewhat less predictable attack. With that being said, their defense should be no match. I’ll give the Gophers 17 points but we’re dropping 31. This will be another game that frustrates me at [...]
The Minnesota Preview: Give Me Back My Jug!!!
We’ve crossed over mid-week and I’m feeling pretty confident. I just can’t see coming back here without the jug. There’s an empty spot in Schembechler Hall without it. I mean, it really is our jug. You know how the story goes. Lloyd tells it every year like a drunk uncle [...]
