                                                       As a day 1 Detroit Lions fan, from the 0-16 season and all, the Lions vs Saints game is the same roller coaster game that it has been for the last 28 years of my life. I went from "This is finally the year the Detroit Lions are going to win the Super Bowl" to "This team may lose every game this year." There are a lot of great things that happened in the game, but also a lot of questions and worries for the rest of the season that will hopefully be answered.  The Detroit Lions offense was great scoring 31 points and the offense succeeding in all sections. Jared Goff chants were echoing all around the stadium as they threw for 206 yards and 2 touchdowns, it was not a jaw dropping season, but did everything that he needed to do to win the game. Amon-Ra St. Brown was the star of the game receiv...

                                                      Michigan did everything they had to do, defense be aggressive, Bryce Underwood control the offense, and for the Michigan run game to succeed throughout the game. Michigan was able to do all of these things and able to beat #11 Oklahoma in the Big House 17-10. Bryce Underwood proved himself that he can play in the biggest stage, he made the passes when he needed and become the #1 rusher on the team. Bryce Underwood went 9/17 for 111 yards which isn't jaw dropping, but he was able to move the ball down the field and had no turnovers, which is how to win games. He also had 18 carries for 87 yards and 1 TD, and these carries were not just rushes off a pass play, Bryce is starting to get planned running plays as the quarterback, which I think will have them win more big games throughout the year. Jordan Ma...

                                                            We have been waiting for this moment. 9-8 used to be the record that Detroit Lions Fans used to beg for, and now we think of it as a disappointing season. The team is somewhat injured, but I think we have everyone that we need to beat the Saints in Week 1.                                                                Our offense is what Madden fans would dream of. A strong offensive line that makes holes and time for their quarterback, Jahmyr Gibbs that has a 99 speed and when he has an open lane, he will be reaching the end zone within seconds. Multiple receivers that can score at any moment, you have Amon-Ra St. Brown wh...

                                     Last week was last week, we are on to a new week. Michigan will not be playing the top team in the MAC anymore, we are playing #11 Oklahoma. These two teams played complete opposite in Week 1, but no matter what, it is anyones game for week 2.  Oklahoma defeated UTEP 51-0 with John Matter playing very well going 11/17 with 225 yards and 3 touchdowns. They had a defensive touchdown, a punt return for a touchdown, 9/9 in field goals and extra point kicks. It was overall a perfect game that could be played, the best practice to be ready to play at Michigan the next week.  Michigan… kind of had the opposite experience week 1. Michigan defeated Western Michigan 13-12 with a last second 50+ yard touchdown pass as the extra second ticks. Bryce Underwood had 1 touchdown but 2 turnovers, 1 being an interception and another being a late 4th quarter fumble. ...

Michigan somehow came back and won against a slow but questionable win against Western Michigan 13-12 with a last second miracle 50 yard touchdown pass with 1 second left. And yes, I repeat, with 1 second left. There are many negatives things about the game as a Michigan fan, but also positive things as well.  First off, Michigan’s defense was fantastic. Overall, they did their job the entire game besides one drive. They allowed 12 points, 4 field goals, but 9 of those points were off the offenses turnovers. The Michigan defense allowed a total of 221 yards and allowed an average of 2.9 yards per carry. If you explain those stats to anyone, you would think it would be a blowout because the offense must’ve dominated and score a lot more… right? Right? WRONG Michigan offense was the opposite, I was expecting a lot of sparks with Bryce Underwood having the off season with a new coaching staff and not being a Freshman QB anymore. He finished the game 12/22 170 yards 1 TD, 1 INT. Now if...
