PLAYERS: Donovan Warren
TEAMS: Michigan Wolverines

We're crossing enemy lines this week with a Q&A session with Penn State blogger Mike from Zombie Nation. We decided to do this one home-and-home style with both of us fielding each others questions about this week's match up in Ann Arbor. Here's Mike's answers to my completely off the cuff questions. Enjoy! 1) Now that Penn State broke their 9 game losing streak against Michigan last season, are fans any more confident heading into this year's contest? Fans? Probably. Me? No way. Penn State has played Michigan too many times "expecting" to win. I've fallen into that trap (read: 2005) before, and was punished in the most painful fashion. Even last season's 46-17 blowout in Beaver Stadium, Michigan went up 17-7, and had every white-clad fan crapping his pants. I wanted to throw up, then throw it at the TV screen. The Wolverines this season are a better team. They have every shot to beat Penn State, so no Lions fan should feel confiden...

Michigan - Penn State Preview

Via Maize & Blue Nation  |  October 22, 2009
MAIZE OUT!If you're going to the game, wear your maize shirt over your sweatshirt. If it might rain, take 3 dollars to Target and buy a yellow poncho. Seriously people...let's make this maize out thing real! I don't usually dive into a full-fledged preview of up-coming games. But this week feels like it's worthy of a really good look at the matchups and what I think will be...

Wednesday Presser Notes: 10-21

Via MGoBlog  |  October 21, 2009
Personnel David Molk practiced in pads yesterday. He will start against Penn State on Saturday. David Moosman will move to right guard, with Perry Dorrestein and Mark Huyge competing for the right tackle spot. Tate Forcier and Carlos Brown should be fully recovered from all their injuries. Minor's injury is still nagging, but he should be healthy enough to play (as he has...

Unverified Voracity Pulls Around

Via MGoBlog  |  October 21, 2009
Programming note: the Martin news and AD search was clearly more important than slapping up half of the Delaware State UFR, so both halves will land tomorrow. A couple AD clarifications. The thing about Dave Brandon politicizing the AD position was not meant to suggest a staunch anything couldn't run the department—Bo, good God. The thing is: Brandon almost made a run for...

Upon Further Review: Defense vs Delaware State

Via MGoBlog  |  October 22, 2009
Personnel notes: Um, well, there were a lot of them. The most interesting things from my perspective: Sagesse reclaimed his spot as the backup NT, and Kovacs was the deep safety whenever Michigan went to eight-man fronts, which was frequently. Kenny Demens and Brandon Smith didn't even see the field, IIRC. And James Rogers moved to corner. On with the very boring show: ...

An obligatory look at Michigan

Via The Nittany Lion  |  October 21, 2009
About the University The university was founded in 1817 in Detroit as the Catholepistemiad, or University of Michigania, about 20 years before the Michigan Territory officially became a state. The university moved to Ann Arbor in 1837 onto 40 acres of what is now known as Central Campus. So Michigan (the university) was around before Michigan (the state)?!? You just blew my mind...

Hart's final-game fumbles were a cause for concern

Via Indy Star  |  October 23, 2009
Mike Hart's tenure at the University of Michigan was long and illustrious. Yet everything the Wolverines' record-setting running back accomplished during four seasons and 43 games nearly was overshadowed by his final appearance and two of his 1,015 career carries.
