The Victors: Halftime
(No. 17) Michigan State 17-10 Michigan (No. 18)

If you had told me before the game that our much-reviled defense would hold the dastardly Spartans to seventeen points in the first half, I would have thought you an overly optimistic prognosticator. Had you told me that the dastardly Spartans would be held scoreless in the first quarter, I should not have believed you. Our defense is woefully inadequate, there's no way around that, but let's give them credit: they're doing a better job of keeping us in the game than is the much-vaunted offense.

But we saw Shoelace be hamstrung for large swaths of the game against the vile Fighting Irish; so, all is not yet lost. The valiant Wolverines can still win this game as a shootout if the offense gets going in the second half. Here's hoping they do.

Go Blue!
