I’m stunned speechless
As a University of Michigan student, I was in attendance to watch firsthand the Wolverines’ season hopes blow up. UM lost to I-AA school, Appalachian State, 34-32. While I was definitely angrier over Lilja’s poor play in the second to last game of the Wings’ postseason, I am more upset over this loss. This was supposed to be our season with QB Chad Henne and RB Mike Hart graduating after this season. Well if the Wolverines are still ranked on Monday, I’ll be shocked.
I will post some photos and talk about the game later today once the shock and disappointment starts to wear off. I will have you know that Ann Arbor was incredibly quiet after the football game. I have never ever heard it that silent even after other losses. This one was bad and I’m not really in the mood to talk about the game just yet.

AOL’s FanHouse’s take on the game
Update: I’m still too pissed off about the game to talk about it today. I’ll write about it sometime tomorrow afternoon. Instead, I wrote about Lions running back Kevin Jones actually being taken off the PUP list and Nicklas Lidstrom driving a pace car at the Belle Island Grand Prix.

I was dang near retching watching the 2nd half on TV (thanks to the new Big Ten network). Hart was the only guy who performed out there for the Maize & Blue, the rest were sleepwalking or something.
My daughter was thrilled, though, to see a guy with her name (Hillary) on his jersey for App State. For a five year-old, that’s about as cool as a football game gets.

Oh it was beautiful watching an over ranked UofM team fall. I myself was enjoying the MSU blow out over in East Lasing (Sparta). Maybe they will stop over ranking Michigan, sorry for the loss guys but you really are not that good.

The Forechecker- Yeah, it was definitely a rough game to watch much less experience firsthand. Mike Hart looked great when he played, but he injured his thigh so that totally sucks.
Ronnie- Yep, we looked like crap yesterday. I’m just going to leave it at that.
