A beautiful thing happened today. I spent my afternoon with a cold beer (ok more like 6) watching football with the guys. Yes, live, exciting, real football, college football to be exact. After i was forced to watch a boring unentertaining game between the damn Buckeyes and Youngstown, I was throughly entertained watching my boys in blue, the Michigan Wolverines. Yes, they lost, but it was a good game. What appeared to be a certain win for Utah, came down to the fourth quarter when our new coach, Rich Rodriguez, led our team to a 13 point unanswered comeback. If we had completed that last two point conversion it would have been tied. I don’t see Michigan being a strong contender this year unfortunately though. The loss of everyone from Chad Henne to Mario Manningham hurts, and quite honestly hometown boy Nick Sheridan has a lot of room for improvement. Brandon Minor is still in the Big House, and wide receiver Greg Matthews looks promising, but between the weak QB and adjusting to Rodriguez’s split offense, I am not going to be shocked if we stay low in rankings throughout the season. Don’t get me wrong, I support my teams win or lose, but I have to be reasonable at the same time.
