DE-FENSE! DE-FENSE!! DE-FENSE!!!

Wow! My Michigan team’s 2039 season has started off better than imagined and it’s all about our defense! In our 1st 3 games we’ve allowed a total of 7 points and have had back-to-back shutouts (we only had 2 shutouts in our previous 3 SEASONS combined).

And this has been complete and total domination. We've only allowed a total of 487 yards (162 YPG), 290 passing yards (97 PYPG) and 197 rushing yards (66 RYPG). And this isn’t from crazy amounts of sacks (“only” 4 per game) or turnovers (1 per game). The real key has been our ridiculous 3rd down defense as we’ve only allowed 4/28 conversions (14%). We usually allow in the neighborhood of 40%, but this year my boys really know how to get off the field.

And this hasn’t been against scrubs either. We beat up an outmanned Western Michigan in our token “easy game” but we also beat #12 Arizona in the season opener and unranked, but 2-0 and 89 OVR Auburn in Jordan-Hare.

Here’s hoping the fellas can keep this impressive showing going for the rest of the season!

Nice to see defense in this game get some love. High octane offenses are fun and all, but when defenses shine, it is a truly different (and wonderful) experience.

And holy hell, lookit that Michigan Oregon start time!

Lol. As I said this is 2039, and I’ve coached in 221 games (174-47, .787) and this is the 1st game ever that I’ve noticed the start time, and that’s only because you mentioned it.

I think it's Eastern time, not local lol. I've got a 10:30 pm home game scheduled. And the 7:30 pm home game I've got isn't a night game.
