To say it was a stressful game for Ohio State and Michigan fans Saturday is an understatement. I ended up on my knees with my forehead pressed against the floor so many times I began to think I may never be able to get up. My hands shook throughout the entirety of the game and for a few hours afterward.

I am thankful I have a year to recover before enduring this level of stress again. Although I think I’d prefer having multiple years in between.

My pacing had me praying up to Bo hoping for some kind of divine intervention. A few times, it even looked like we may have gotten it but I’m thinking Woody had to have been intervening as well and won out in the end.

Yes, I know football is about talent, not divine intervention but you have to admit, a lot of crazy things happened.

Durbin missing not one but TWO field goals?

Speight throwing not one but TWO interceptions?

ALL IN ONE GAME?

Incredible.

I must admit, it was a great game. It was a football game fans hate and love to watch at the same time. A football game the players love to play. Boy did they play.

To all the Ohio State Fans out there, congratulations. Your team won and I cannot take that away from you(as much as I would like to try).

To my fellow Michigan fans, it may not seem like it right now but it is okay. The Team. The Team. The Team. The Team showed up and proved to us and everyone else in the world that Michigan Football is back and ready to play at a highly competitive level. That is something to rejoice about. To the coaches and players, I think I speak for all of Michigan (even over there in Lansing, although they won’t admit it) when I say that you have made everyone proud. You have not only played your hearts out, but inspired thousands with your drive, love for the game, and commitment to academics, your teammates, and your favorite sport. You have created a legacy that will live on for years to come. Thank you for that.

Do not hang your head, Michigan Football is just getting started. Plus we have the NFL Draft to look forward to this year. Our favorite seniors play on!
