WHarris1 Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Illini leading 27-7 at the half Brasic, PT, EB with rushing TD's Brasic 13-16 in the air If not for a blocked punt the Illini may have a shutout going. Also stud frosh Rashard Mendenhall has 2 carries for 19 yards. As I type Adrian Peterson just bust a ridiculous run to win OU the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Hudler Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Gotta give ND credit today. While Michigan belw several chances, ND's defense made plays. I can't count how many passes they batted down or how many times they stuffed the run on 1st down, forcing Michigan to pass. I was really surprised that the defenses ruled the day instead of the offenses. I figured it would be quite the opposite. Chalk this one up to a good game by ND and Michigan's yearly f***up.

Fotop Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Go Irish. Our defense really stepped it up today. It was defintely a close game (which we all figured it would be), and the turnovers made the difference. Quinn looked shaky all day, his passes weren't as precise as they usually are. Walker had a nice game, hopefully Mcknight will be ok (he did walk off under his own power) but i fear an acl injury. One thing that bothered me about the game was the Michigan fans throwing stuff on the field. It's your home field, your rules, and you've made your bed in regards to Instant Replay. Sleep in it. Of course if this was at ND, they wouldn't have had to worry about IR . Anyways, tt just seemed really classless to me that they had to stop play twice for their shenanigans. Either way, it's gonna be a madhouse here at ND next weekend. Can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, both McKnight and Hart will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 (edited) I was impressed with Michigan's defense. Minus Notre Dame's first drive, they played very well and kept Michigan in the game. Michigan's offense had problems though. Sophomore quarterback Chad Henne couldn't throw the ball today, Breston and Avant were virtually unheard of. Hart, the leading running back, and the Wolverines tight end (can't spell his name) were both injured as well as a couple of linemen.

Glad I didn't have to watch it. I had it on cbssportsline at work. Looked like Michigan stunk it up in the 1st half and than turned it around the 2nd half to turn the ball over in the red zone multiple times. Read that Henne really f***ed up a few times. Did Hart get hurt? Noticed Grady got the majority of the carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 I taped the game and FWD to the end of the game. 2 minutes left and Henne had a nice pass to Mannington who may of made a nice catch if the D-back didn't grab him and stop him from running. Obvious pass interference call, but oh well. When do the fans toss crap on the field? Haven't seen it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 2 minutes left in first half, 16-0 Iowa State over Iowa. If both Iowa and Ohio State lose, I'll feel better about the Wolverine loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda want Iowa to lose just so I can give him s*** and say that Illinois State put up a better fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they had 1 practice in the last 2 weeks. IU pulled it out by driving 89 yards and scoring with under a minute left. Truly pathetic. Hopefully this is the low point in Bloomington.
