Michigan 20, Northwestern, 17

We'll see how good Harbaugh is in the 2nd half. Can he rally the team? I have my doubts. This does not look like a well coached team.

Michigan not playing well blows but this announcer opposite of Gus Johnson makes watching this game insufferable.

Northwestern counts for anything at all?

This game is already an embarrassment, no matter what they do in the second half.

[paul daugherity]

This is so disheartening and disappointing. Just crappy.

[Kstat]

Just 2 quarters away from losing to a school even Brady Hoke owned.

[WM Wolverine]

M with only 65 penalty yards.

Agree with that. M is not good. Harbaugh is overrated and not doing what he was brought in to do.

[Tom W]

I am really beginning to hate that head referee, whoever he is.

[maxreturn]

Had an icky feeling before the game even started but I didn't think it would be this ugly. Harbaugh and his staff suck, plain and simple.

We've got ourselves a game.

Secret to beating UM...quick slant. It amazes me that they haven't been able to figure this out. And please...this defense is SO overrated. Other than Winovich nobody has played well.

[Detroit Dan]

I disagree. Collins has been fine, from my perspective.

We had one bad offensive mistake in the first half -- the drop by McKeon. These things happen to the best of us. Otherwise, we got a couple of bad breaks on that last drive (holding penalty that is often not called; catch with toe over the out of bounds line). These things also happen and are not major mistakes.

Give Northwestern credit for having a good game plan and executing it well. Let's hope we continue our comeback and prevail.
