Five Key Plays: Slippery Rock at Michigan

November 10, 2012
1. Tim Hardaway Jr. starts the game strong
Michigan looked a bit lifeless to begin Friday’s game. Burke and Robinson both missed early jumpers and Slippery Rock was aggressive and built early confidence. Hardaway was the exception to the slow Michigan start. He opened the game with a great pass to Jordan Morgan for a smooth finish and then began looking for his own offense. Hardaway...

Fitzgerald holds Hoke in high regard
In just his first season, Brady Hoke turned a beleaguered Michigan program into a Sugar Bowl squad. The early success stemmed from key schematic adjustments which transformed the dynamic Denard Robinson and a spread-based attack. Hoke has proved doubters wrong and earned the respect of Northwestern's Pat Fitzgerald, among others.

November 09, 2012
It’s unfortunate that we had to wait until the Minnesota game to see Devin Gardner. Based on what I saw, there is zero reason that he shouldn’t have played against Nebraska. He looked like he was a highly recruited five-star quarterback coming out of high school. Sure he had some rust to shake off early, but once he got going he looked great. And sure it was only against...

Comeback! Michigan 38, NW 31 in OT
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) -- Devin Gardner ran for a 1-yard touchdown in overtime and Michigan's defense responded with a stop, giving the Wolverines a wild 38-31 win over Northwestern on Saturday.
D struggles, finishes strong (w/ Hoke video)
Giving up 31 points in one game isn’t something that pleases Brady Hoke and the Michigan coaching staff. Northwestern was able to attack the Wolverines on the perimeter. But a great defensive call late solidified the 38-31 overtime win.

Michigan 100, Slippery Rock 62
For about 10 minutes, Slippery Rock looked like a team ready to provide a challenge for No. 5 ranked Michigan. The Rock played physical basketball, didn’t look overmatched and hit some early shots to hang around. Eventually Michigan’s talent and depth was just too much for its Division II foe. The Wolverines stretched their...
