Tempo hurting Michigan defense. Our PA Flood set should be successful as well.

IU scores on a pick play. Flag comes out. Right call from McGuinns crew.

Emory Simmons now a Hoosier. Former WR we were after.

Near pick, then a pick. Michigan ball IU 42.

Unsportsmanlike conduct on IU for trying to strip the ball a step after going oob.

Yuck there.

Indiana blocks Michigan's field goal attempt. This is kinda entertaining. Score is 10-10

I think Harbaugh planned to rest Corum today. After taking his first 2 runs 50 and 1 for a TD, they cut back.

Now they've let IU hang around. A porous run defense is now shutting down Corum and co.

Michigan DL has kept them in the game at critical times. They aren't last years unit, but they are beating the OL and hitting IUs QB.

Kansas forces a fumble, then the backup QB leads em down the field. Wide open TD pass.

17-10 Jayhawks

Michigan is flat. Whether it was Hart leaving on a stretcher or more likely getting caught looking ahead to PSU they are struggling. Indiana is a team you can't sleep on, their offense is good and can put up points. They better wake up this second half or they can easily walk out with a L today.

98 yard drive puts Michigan back up. Michigan's best passing is the underneath, short crossing game. I expect to see a lot of 7 DBs on those 3rd downs.

So tired of hearing the announcers that this a trap game for Michigan. Everyone knows that going into Indiana and playing this well coached team can be a problem. PSU knows that. Eventually you come out with a win but it's tough.

Now 2:25 left, Purdue ball, Maryland calling timeouts. Wow, this would be a bad loss for Maryland.
Purdue ball at the two, up one point. I expect them to take some knees here.

They're warming up already. A dropped pass (hit the ground) by Michigan that's called a completion.
Agreed. Ruled an incompletion on the field there is no way the replay supports overturning. If anything it confirmed by the call - the top of the ball clearly hit the ground while the ball was still moving.

One thing Michigan does that I wish we'd do: shotgun snap runs, they block the DE vs leaving him for the read. Usually down block the play and let Corum find daylight.

I thought that was a "blindside block" if the receiver blocks downfield, face to face on Michigan's last TD. That's NEVER called except against PSU

MD TD with 35 secs left. Go for 2 to tie. It’s good. Flag. Retry. No good.
PU still leads.

Should Purdue have not scored when up 24-23, they have the ball on the 1, MD out of time outs with 1:29 to go, it is 3rd down and PU scores. They could have taken a knee and run the clock down to around :45 seconds, used one of their own TO’s and decide to score or make MD go 99. I think I would have tried to score on 4 th down

TCU edges KU 38-31.

Final KU drive in the final minute stopped inside the TCU 20 by a zebra 4th down no call on a PI.

Tough loss.

They won. So it's tough to say they were wrong. I think you HAVE to try to score on 3rd down, but know hell is coming.
