Granted our football team during my four years at U of M wasn’t exactly extremely “good,” per se, with four straight losses to OSU and an embarrassing loss to Appalacian State the first game of my senior year, but they were not THIS atrocious.

In case you’ve been living under a rock in a cave at the bottom of the ocean, you know that we lost to University of Toledo this weekend, marking the first time EVER we’ve lost to a Mid-American Conference team. Not only that, but we lost to a shitty Mid-American Conference team. Toledo was 2-4 1-4 overall, yet somehow they beat us 13-10 due to the fact that our offense appears to be made up of life-size cardboard cutouts of actual football players.

I didn’t even get to watch the game because the Big Ten network was hard enough to find in Michigan, much less New York, but the fact I couldn’t see the atrocities being committed on the field is probably a blessing in disguise. I did mangage to follow a liveblog of the game on Mlive.com, which proved to be very entertaining watching people write in comments. Some highlights:

“This is worse than App State.”

“I’m absolutely horrified.”

“Why is Sheridan in?”

“Stop giving it to McGuffie EVERY TIME.”

“We could have had Les Miles…”

“AHAHAHA UM SUCKS GO MSU.”

“Why is Sheridan in?”

“Zoltan Mesko is our MVP.”

“Join my Facebook group, ‘Fire RichRod.’”

“What did I miss? NO WAY THAT’S THE SCORE.”

“Why is Sheridan in?”

I'd say that about sums up the day. 

So, what do YOU think is wrong with our god-forsaken team?
