Sponsors
The reason we can put out so much audio content now is it’s paid for. The show is presented by the Bo Store, UGP& Moe's and frankly would not be happening without them; Rishi and Ryan and their people have been huge MGoBlog supporters from the start.
Our other sponsors are also key in the expanding empire: thanks to Homesure Lending, Ann Arbor Elder Law, the Residence Inn Ann Arbor Downtown, the University of Michigan Alumni Association, Deo Bookkeeping, Michigan Law Grad, Defensive Drivers Group, and Peak Wealth Management.

1. Indiana After Review
O’Korn wasn’t any better close up than you thought he was when you left the stadium. De’Veon Smith got very De’Veon Smith-like runs, but Chris Evans has a really effective short area juke. Taco and Glasgow killed outside zone, which doesn’t let you ignore the nose—Taco becoming a first rounder.
2a. Across the Crooked Blue Line, with Steve Lorenz
starts at 19:36
We say names and Lorenz gets us excited. Hicks. Price. Haaarrrris? December should be good.
2b. The History and Culture of The Game, with Greg Dooley
starts at 43:34
The history of Michigan-Ohio State, how it became The Game, and why are Ohio State fans so insane (hint: Woody). Brian tells the cape story. If Penn State wins the Big Ten, who goes to the national championship? Also Brian gets served.
3. Gimmicky Top Five: Ways to Pass the Time Until IT
1:06:51
We don’t want to contemplate it. We just want to get to there or worry about it. Time refuses to comply. Schnepp is the act of turning gypsum into a useful substance.
4. The Preview of Ohio State
starts at 1:20:50
Ohio State’s offense is really hard to get to 3rd and long, but can be kicked off the field when you do. Their receivers are burly Noah Brown and eh other than some crazy slot stuff, but keeping JT Barrett from turning 2-yard gains into 7-yard gains is the key. Michigan is going to throw the kitchen sink at a defense with a couple of holes. Ugly it up and get that one big play. We’ll take a fumbled punt.
