More amazing than cheese-whiz was that the U of M Wolverines beat the Minnesota Golden Gophers last Saturday 29-6 improving their record to 3-6 this season and giving them hop that they could end the season with a 3 game winning streak.
I was very surprised that Michigan came prepared for this game. After losing to Utah, Toledo and Michigan State the season was essentially over, and all they had left to play for was pride. Not that a potential 5-7 record is anything to boast over, but if the Wolverines can beat Northwestern this weekend and OSU in the following weekend they will have shown the potential exists to turn around next season, and give hope to the massive following that IS Michigan football that all may not be lost forever. It's just lost for this season!
The additional benefit of Michigan’s win is that the little brown jug stays with us for at least another year. And after the terrible season this team has had they need to enjoy every victory they can!
