- Steve is back for the new year and says you just witnessed the best 5-loss season, ever. Mark Rogers, The Voice of College Football, gives his take.
Jordan Marshall’s work ethic is on par with Blake Corum’s, he’ll be a rockstar
Huge Buckeye fan here, but I couldn't agree with this more. You beat us, Bama and MSU (USC too), all while having a barely functioning QB.
Vanderbilt beat Alabama.
If Michigan just had an average qb they more than likely win 10 games and or make the playoffs
Yeah and bama beat georgia lol@michaelschaefer1904
@@michaelschaefer1904 Michigan beat ohio 🤔 in Columbus 🤣 and then THEY started a fight with the Flag planting on their field.
We should've beaten Washington and Indiana too
Steve, Happy New Year 🎉🎉 ! You owe our coach an apology. He's done a very good job and he is proving that he's up to the task to be a coach for Michigan.
Steve crapped on harbaugh. Lol don’t listen to Steve
Harbaugh is his favorite Michigan player of all time. Hell a lot of us were getting worried about Harbaugh in the covid year.
Mark is right on with the “pulling Warren for Orji in the red zone” comments. I had the same frustration at both of the times he referenced and a couple others.
Yeah he does, some of his crying is becoming unbearable 🤔🤨😳
Coach Moore is new he still needs time to get comfortable we seen mistakes this season like the time out in the alabama game but I think he'll be a great coach
I'll remember the end of this season along with last years 15-0 run. It was the perfect follow up, most hilarious beating of OSU ever.
It was an early and completely unexpected holiday present. And it was JUST what I wanted.
I describe this win over OSU the exact same way. Hilarious. There are many other ways to describe it. But hilarious is the top. For like a week after the game I would actually bust out laughing while doing random things like driving and putting away dishes, just because I thought about how we actually beat them and Ryan Day standing there shell shocked saying "what happened". It actually makes me thankful for all the losses earlier in the season, because the hilarity wouldn't't have been the same if we were like 8-3 or something going into the game.
Most people still don't get why. They think it was just OSU playing bad or Ryan Day coaching bad - but what it really was was that Michigan had the best pass rush and run defense they had seen all year.
@@MoneyIsSilver yes. the dline was so fricken legendary that they could get away with only having 6 in the box allowing for 5 dbs almost every play with half quarters on Jeremiah Smiths side to bracket him then the other safety taking away the 2nd option. then cover 2 on the other side. It was as Steve said it. bracket jeremiah smith, take away that second read then trust the d line to get to Howard before he gets to his 3rd read. he often got to his 3rd read, but it was intermediate routes in the vacated middle area behind the linebackers underneath the safeties. They couldnt do it consistently though with the pass rush and especially not in the red zone.
@@Brettwbeyer14 100%. I also think Howard doesn't handle getting hit that well.
Absolutely LOVE coming to your channel for the beginning entrance!!!❤❤❤
Pretend for a second that instead of Texas, UM plays Akron. Then they draw Purdue and UCLA instead of Illinois and I guess Oregon. Michigan probably stumbles into the playoff. However they’re not really any better…. Do we have Bryce Underwood? No. We absolutely do not. The middle of the season was pretty tough to watch. But the guys never quit. They had plenty of buy in. They just didn’t have enough talent on offense. You can add talent to a locker room. Mental toughness? Well, we know what a Michigan team that doesn’t have enough of that looks like. It’s tough to grow that. Successful as 8-5 can possibly be.
13-10 UM Winners and MICHIGAN Winners of THE GAME. 4 in a row 👍
Great Show!
I appreciate the objectivity of the Buckeye fan
Been waiting on this one! Go Blue!
Was Tate forcier better? I started following Michigan in 2011 so idk
*Sometimes, you need to take a step back to launch forward. I’m unsure if Michigan is ready to win it all in 2025, but I’m betting they’ll be competitive and legitimate title contenders moving forward. Go Blue!*
Michigan v OSU might essentially be the National Championship next season.
At times(first half vs MSU comes to mind) I thought this team was trending down and might fold and not even make a bowl game. And instead they turn it on and improve tremendously the second half of the season, flip the number one recruit in the country, beat OSU and Bama(giving the entire country a win by silencing the SEC fanboys) to put the cherry on top. The best close to season I can think of, outside of obviously last year. Go Blue!!!
We beat rival Minnesota for the Little Brown Jug. MN.has won 8 straight bowl games . We beat Intra state rival MSU. We welcomed historical top 10 powerhouse USC by welcoming the trojans to the Big 10 who were ranked #12 in the nation before we ruined their season. Our high school recruiting and portal recruiting were we both top 10 nationally. We had a winning season and we're bowl eligible. As a double digit underdog we beat SEC superpower Bama. This was the we best 8-5 seadon ever. We gor the #1 player in the the nation in QB UNDERWOOD. We slaughtered Northwestern for the we Inaugural Jewitt trophy. Best 8-5 season ever.
The best 4 year stretch in school history? Go Blue SMASH!
That’s why you will never be Ohio state? We haven’t gone 8-5 in like 30 years! Ryan day would be fired if he went 8-5 even if he best Michigan! 🤷♂️
@@michaeltabor2077 How many Nattys y'all got? Yea stfu with your thinking your Bama. OSu paid players before anyone else in a very very weak big 10 and still was getting owned by the SEC. Enjoy your lil Tennessee win😂😂😂
You might want to check the early years of Michigan football before saying these were the best years ever.
8-5 is NOTHING to celebrate. This was embarrassing for us.
@@michaeltabor2077but look at your schedule easy to cake walk your team through a year, but that's why you lose when the hard games come at the end of the year. But now that everyone can pay the five stars we will see how good your bucknuts are.
As A Mich Fan I still want Ohio State to win it all this year
Crazy talk. I would rather root for Russia.
I agree with Craig.. you've been drinking too much of the Jimmy Jones punch...
WELCOME BACK STEVE
The first few min description of why this is a great season is spot on
Steve give us some new clips of the national championship team in the into.
You were wrong about Wink, though
Not really. Wink and the defense had to make some adjustments during their bye week because Wink was trying to have these guys do too much. That's why they constantly looked slow and confused for the first half of the season. He simplified their responsibilities and the defense took off.
Wink wasn’t good for the first portion of the season then he made adjustments and was good…
@@CertifiedClapaholic That's not the case at all. Michigan held onto a lot of guys for 2023 - some dude's were 6th year seniors starting. So last year was a defense of almost all new starters. All defenses need time to gel as players find their roles and become accustomed to the abilities of their teammates (like how much they can cover, how fast they are, etc.). These guys were talented and well coached from the beginning, but just needed to gel and get used to the system.
@@CertifiedClapaholic Also, bear in mind that all season the offense was putting the defense in crappy situations and couldn't stay on the field long enough to give the defense rest. Despite all that, we still had one of the best rushing defenses in college.
@MoneyIsSilver yes, it literally IS the case. I understand the defense was put in bad positions by the offense, but go back and watch the games. The players were slow to react to plays and constantly standing around flat-footed during the first half of the season. After the bye week, they were flying around and looked like last year's defense.
Thank you B10.
Yes Steve & Mark "pound the football 🏈 and play defense".
Mich 929 yards rushing over OSU last four games.
All the while Michigan was cheating.
Only a Michigan College fan could say a 5 lose season is a success!
You’ve got to get some recent highlights in the opening
I do think it’s funny how little Steve mentions beating MSU because of how trash that program has become 😂
Saw Dantonio at the recent Rose Parade on account of his being inducted into the Rose Bowl Hall Of Fame. The permanent scowl on his face seemed to say, Hi - remember me ? I once coached at MSU and we were good once back then ... yes, back then ... 🤔
@ As much as I couldn’t stand him as a coach, had to respect him. I’ve always thought the 2013 team in 4-team playoff format may have had a shot at the natty.
That said, it shows how important a coach and recruiting is. Because they have been pretty much dog shit since Alabama beat the crap out of them in the playoffs almost ten years ago.
So it’s good to see that scowl 🤣🤣🤣
Their delusional fans still think they have some actual pulse and presence in the big ten when realistically they are becoming a feeder program for bigger schools
MSU potentially has a large alumni and donor base, but their endowment and giving records are astonishingly - even embarrassingly - low. In this NIL age, who is going to pony up the dollars needed to attract even good talent ? I dunno ... 😕
He doesn’t say much about them because that’s his alma mater
Michigan state didn’t even land a single 4 star recruit in this recruiting cycle . How that’s even possible idk but they figure out how to do it
Really hope Underwood is the rare true Frosh QB who can step in and start day one and be successful. Don’t want to hang the whole season on a Fresno State QB transfer.
I bet more than half of Bugeye fans rather have our 8-5 record (with win in the Game) than winning the Natty. By the way, I always root for OSU. It makes us look good if they win.
Not a single Buckeye fan would trade this year for yours.
Not a single Buckeye fan wants anything that Michigan has
You really want that game to matter more than it really did 😂 We still won the natty...you can't tell us nothing
O-H!
@@ShaneMichealCuppWell, I said 50% . 🤷♂️
You put in titles like the sky is falling, the worst coached team in program history, and why Sherrone Moore is in trouble
Just for you to come back and say this is the best 5 loss season ever. *CIRCUS BEHAVIOR*
Anyone remember when Michigan entered the National Championship game at 6-5 against BYU?
That was only a potential national championship for BYU…if Michigan had won they would have been fortunate to be in the top 20…
Michigan played lousy that game and nearly won leading 14-10 entering the 4th quarter with a dog crap offense. The M defense had 6 turnovers and lost 24-17.
Undefeated Natty Champs 2025! Go Blue!
Where can I bet my money Michigan will win the 2025 National Championship! Go Blue!
I think they will make the playoffs next year and then they will win it in 2026 and possibly 2027 back to back
If you’re giving money away, I’m happy to take it
Probably get some extremely good odds and taking that into consideration it’s not a bad bet
MGM 😂
@@JohnMandockGo Blue!
Happy New Year, can we PLEASE, get some Bob Ufer ?
So, will Michigan be ranked in the final Top 25 polls after Jan. 20th, perhaps, what, anywhere between 18 - 21 say ? 🤔
I think they'll be somewhere between 20-25 especially considering virtually everyone will have three losses at best by then.
Preseason rankings mean nothing
No, michigan gets no respect, may crack the top 25 if they start 6-0. If there all blow out wins.
Recently, Auburn finished with five losses, played as tough a schedule as Michigan's, and finished in the Top 20, as I remember.
We are the champions we are the champions OSU!
Crazy to rhink that had UoM beat Washington, they would have had a no redemption rebuild year. No worries. Great season, great outlook for next. GO BLUE!
What concerns me is the possibility of being in a successful recruiting class for Michigan in the years. No WRs
we haven't had a fast downfield flanker since Braylin Edwards. To showcase the howzzier arm of Bryce Underwood. Happy2025🎉 to gentleman and your families. Always,GOBLUE🤘🏼& INSIGNABOWL#W🏆!
I'm not making excuses for their losses, you have to beat the best teams to be champions, however.... When three of those losses were against CFP teams and a fourth against a really good Illinois bowl winning team, things definitely look a little different than the record shows. Especially with a win over a fourth CFP team and another highly ranked one just outside of the playoffs. After losing so much talent to the NFL, players and coaches, I think it's impressive what first year coach Moore as done with so little time and options. The identities of a lot of these playoff teams will look a lot different next year and I think Michigan will be in a great position to make a run at another B1G Conference championship and playoff spot. Go Blue
Water is wet
Now apologize to Sherrone on your podcast like a man because you sure did complain about him like a 5 year old. Dont be that guy! Its pathetic tbh
Need divisions back in conferences. Can’t convince me otherwise.
One more thing Ty for waking the monster
😂😂😂😂😂😂☠️ Just handle your business. We know how you guys get.
@ true lol
Yup.....Buck Nut should send the Wolverines a thank you card......that embarrassment turned it all around for them.
@@doctordetroit4339 sometimes that is what it takes.
〽️〽️〽️〽️
Lets just hope that Underwood lives up to his reputation. He wouldnt be the first "#1 (insert position here) recruit to be a bust. Lets be cautiously optimistic.
People act like David Warren doesn't make the wrong read
This is the most satisfying season in years aside from the natty. Not just beating ohio....but EMBARRASSING THEM IMMENSELY at THEIR HOUSE......even got them maced!!!! 3 TD underdogs and pull that off? And then beating Bama AGAIN.....twice in a calendar year. You do realize the SEC fanboys riot and tear down goal posts if they beat Bama ONCE....and there are almost no SEC teams that beat Bama twice in the past decade let alone back to back (Clemson is not SEC).
GO BLUE BABY!!!!
If it was so good do it again next year. Anything to make yourself feel better😂
Michigan football team will end the 2020s as team of the decade.
5:55 Steve kinda guy to bring up an Earth shattering tweet from himself LOL .. jk
GO BLUE 〽️
OSu had 33 pass attempts against Michigan in 2024 never forget the lies.
I personally think tenn and Oregon had the SEC arrogance thinking they could play man to man against to Ohio St because we “have SEC guys.” You can’t leave your guys one on one coverage against OSU. You have to play cover 4 coverage and make them go the length of the field and hope to win on 3rd down with your front four. If Texas does the SEC thing, you reap what you sow.
This season is the worst UM will be under Sheronne Moore… Get ready B1G, be very afraid.
We are already talking to a top 20 wide receiver from one of the big playoff teams, we’ll definitely throw NIL at him
Actually I'm not expecting much more from next season than last.
If they were playing the same teams they did last year they would be lucky to finish at 7-5.
An easier schedule might make them look better but it takes time for a team and coaching to gel.
If last season was any indication. It could be another long season.
The problems started with coaching and losing a lot of players.
Sounds like the same problems going into next year they had this year.
Texas has a great defense. We shall see if any team will copy Winks defense. I keep wondering that Texas keeps hearing how bad they are in the media. I think they play tough
Michigan should be doing better with skilled positions. Running back is not an issue, but WRs dont want to come here given the most recent history of being a run heavy offense. We should also be pulling in elite corners, Edge rushers and DL in general... They develop very well here and for some reason teams out recruit us that quite frankly shouldn't be. Admissions also need to get their heads out of their asses when it comes to credits. Fans don't care about a kid playing school, the kid has to care about that. We want true ballers, that's what we pay the money for, for tickets and jerseys etc.
I would say that this was a good season.
I believe Orji had a longer run than Warren had as for a pass.
Maybe double, triple, or quadruple, or even quintuple the intro time. It isn’t long enough. Maybe even just a 27 min intro and that’s it.
Except I have some reservations about Sherrone's maturity.
Eh, I kinda see what you mean, but I’d be willing to bet his attitude is a BIG reason those boys get up to play for him.
Can I ask why?
@Bill609 cringe worthy post-Penn State interview last year was a red flag. I think he lost the team after how he handled the QB room this year. Then to taunt OSU fans after "winning" a game by 3 when the Buckeyes missed 2 field goals and your QB threw a horrific INT in the endzone. Then there's the obvious, he doesn't have the resume for this job.
@@DubLubb and you take the cake for dumbest post of the day 🙄
@taylorlucas8282 we'll see how he handles this talent haul but I'm disgusted with his maturity level already.
We Up
Tell us anything we do not already know. What I do know is that Steve during Michigan's championship run picked the Buckeyes to beat them and Alabama to beat them. Utterly senseless and not exactly pro-Michigan. Can never forgive him for that..
Who loses to a bad Michigan then crushes Tenn and Oregon and handles Texas? Wow.
Marshall reminds me of Mike Hart
2025 OSU Texas game is in Columbus
Ohio State didn't have to cheat for their national title.
Osu came out fast & strong vs Oregon yes mark but... They also scored 7 points the last 38 to 40 mins. Of the game no? Well enough to win but what happens when a team stops osu from scoring 27 or 34 in the 1st qtr.?
You do realize the play calling over the last "38-40" minutes reflects OSU being 3 to 4 scores ahead? So, to answer your question, OSU would not have "slowed" their offensive play calling had they not scored 27 - 34 in the first quarter.
Nobody knows because it hasn’t happened in the playoffs yet! Lol! Go Bucks!
Amen brother! When you smash opponents in the first half, the second half don’t even matter because the game is over! Just ask Tennessee and Oregon! 😂😂 Go bucks!
@@Unknown-mx3wri know, just ask michigan about OSU trash talking for a whole year, but still losing.
It was a good year only because you beat OSU. The shame is OSU can wipe their ass with that loss now they won the natty 🤣🤣🤣
Not really understanding the Mikey Keene love. He's an okay quarterback who will hopefully bridge the gap for Underwood but, in my estimation, that is it. Nothing to write home to mom about.
Wait, didn't you want Sherrone fired?
Exactly who went 10-2 and lost in the quarter final????
College football is the minor league of the NFL now. But the players did deserve a cut of the big programs and the bucks they bring in.
I thought Alabama was a glorified scrimmage and didn't mean anything
Love the show
Go Blue!
When will you people learn, Oregon has never won a National championship and will never win a national championship, they have never and will never have the defense to win one
Happy New Year's fellas
Good to see you back Steve.
Hey. How did OSU wiff on
J Marshall, Mr Football for state of Ohio?
They probably did not want him in favor of higher out of State players. This is routine these days. I would love for UM to pick up all the Ohio guys that are 4 stars that OSU doesn't want. It gives them and edge in the game....
@@legend71been working for us the last 4 years! Keep on grabing those media proclaimed 5 stars with 2 star coaches. The best thing for michigan was when day stole 2 of our coaches, haven't lost to ya sense. GO BLUE!
@@michaelziel7571 - I agree. I am a UM fan dude.
That natty* was thanks to cheating.
Need OLs
I'm sorry, a 5 loss season is crap after a national cheating title. Means recruiting was terrible.
Perhaps it’s best to say that they’re the best 8-5 team. Can’t see 8-5 as a success. Other facts such as singing Underwood are not relevant to the statement concerning their record.
It's not a success. Just sniffing your farts if this is what success looks like. Get to the gd playoff. Ohio is never going to miss another one again but we're applauding failure?
Hehe I can still see 7-5 again next season even with that schedule is the problem 🤷♂️. I can also see 10-2 with same schedule too. A lot to replace on D and will Michigan not have a passing game and be one dimensional again?
You said absolutely nothing
Hehe I can see you with an imaginary girlfriend again in 2025.
Sanctions are coming soon
You must have missed the Alabama beat down with all the top players sitting out.
NATTY NATTY NATTY
3 out of those 4 wins was thanks to cheating, stop being so arrogant.
You’re correct Steve. Michigan’s first Legitimate season in 4 years. Except 4 years ago Michigan dodged OSU in Columbus. 😂
aww cry cry. based on cryin day michigan prob spanks osu in 2020 too 🤣
Texas @ Ohio State in 2025
Generational player? GTHO !
Every year is a success when you fill over a 100000 people in that stadium and the amount of money that rolls around in Ann arbor to be enjoyed the few that will manipulate their ways to draw in recruits . It's just since it's a legal to pay players where all schools have always done it now you go out and see how you did in that . Just because your going pay a big shot high school player bunch of money doesn't guarantee you anything ask Ohio State even or other universities when it's game day nothing else matters. Yes Michigan finished better. We all knew they were probably not going be like the season before . Actually I kind of respect this team more cause no cheating garbage is in the news Harbaugh is gone
Regular season week 14 world champions🎊🎊🏆🏆
Still more accomplishments than the graduating 2021 osu class 😂
Bro we just won a natty and beat Ohio with a walk on qb. You should be embarrassed.
@@cangle37 I'm so embarrassed in the semi finals bud.
@@jekscie2131 which class in on the couch right now?
@@KnifeyBuckeye I think they’ll survive with their undefeated natty, three big ten chips, and 4-0 record in the game. Good luck backing into a pantsless 2-loss natty though!
Nonsense. The better season would have been to get QB you got and at least be ranked, not to speak about getting into playoffs and have there a meaningful run. To finish season unranked is simply shamful, no matter if you won agains OSU or Alabama.
Does that analysis take into account that UoM reported paid nearly 16 million in NIL for that 8-5 record and only beat 3 teams with winning records?
Because jim left late we didn't get much transfer Portal people. But even if they did, what a bargain 6 million under what OSU spent and kicked your ass! Now thats priceless!
Go bucks
1865 and counting
〽️〽️〽️〽️
I do not like Ohio State.
@Bill609Best comment.
Short and to the point.
O-4, I-O!
Bowl ban 2025 😛
lol the cope is real
Bring on the sanctions
Yawn....... You should enlist for Ukraine. They need the fodder
Give it up bud, it isn’t going to happen.
Maybe herbstreit will lose scholly
Best 5 loss season??? That might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen.
It's absurd that we even find this acceptable
The first few min description of why this is a great season is spot on
