Henne moving the ball a little, but now we’re going to punt. Oh my Michigan.

I suspect this has something to do with State winning their game.

Iowa has the ball at about the 24.

Iowa is moving the ball pretty well. I don’t like it.

Michigan punts.

Iowa at the 24. Deja boo.

They’re moving the ball again.

Gimme some big blue wall here, fellas.

(hello to Iowa’s Dominique Douglas, who is from Detroit)

Iowa still moving the ball, getting their downs. Not liking this at all.

Still moving the ball. :(

On the Michigan 26. QB was nearly sacked, but he actually just fell on himself. I think he hurt his hand.

Commercial. Buy stuff at Best Buy.

And now Iowa is sacked, and Michigan recovers!!!

THAT’S MY BOYS!!!!!

Michigan has the ball at their own 42.

Arrington is down at the 36. 1st down for MI. We’re moving the ball, moving the ball, gotta love it.

Mike Hart gets it up to the 33. Oh dear, it’s a flag. Doh! holding on 85, 10 yards. Bugger.

2nd Q comin’ up

Pass interference. That’ll give us another chance.

And now Henne was sacked.

This hurts me.

This hurts me bad.

2 & 24

Another sack.

Jeesh.

and we punt. Shocking.

Here we go, Iowa at the 8 or so.

Ok, Iowa punts. Sigh …

By christine on Oct 21, 2006 | Reply

Henne moving on down the field, to the 40.

At the 17. We’re gettin’ there.

Definitely a game of D-FENCE today.

Up to the 4.

Breaston had it, but Ref says its bobblin, so no TD

NO NO ON REPLAY, HE GOT IT, AND HIS FOOT WENT DOWN.

Oh well.

And the 2nd time he was out of bounds.

They’re reviewing this one, but they should have reviewed the other.

This one is probably too close to overturn.

FG good, MI 3 - Iowa - 0

(oh yeah, buy Aflac)

False start, the entire line????? Never heard of that.

(I’m new to the game)

Iowa punts.

Mi moving the ball.

And now we punt.

By christine on Oct 21, 2006 | Reply

Iowa to start at the 1. (HA!!)

Iowa to punt from the 5 or so. 18 seconds left in the half.

Breaston gets knocked down by one of our own. How sad.

And the half is over.

3-0, Michigan.

Well now here we go …

Iowa to kick off, and we catch, drop, pick up, and get tackled somewhere in the first 5.

Sigh.

Hart gets us out to the 9.

Run you guys! Run!

Henne sacked. 2nd & 22. Gettin’ tired o’ this.

Intercepted.

This bites the big one.

THIS BLOWS!!!!!

Iowa’s moving right along, just got a first down.

Isn’t that sweet.

By the way, I’m going to take a moment now to plug the Detroit News Big 10 blog.

Iowa’s-a-goin’ .. doh! incomplete.

Rats! Iowa’s at the 10.

Ron English always looks mad.

Time out.

They’re back. 3rd & 4.

Incomplete.

FG Good. 10-6, michigan

QB sack, but no ball.

Iowa at the 11.

This is one boring game.

Did you know there was a Mark Foley action figure?

Time out Iowa. Coaches challenge. Coach loses.

Iowa punts.

(shout out to Notre Dame, who won their game)

Michigan starts at the 43. Or so.

Nothing much going on around here.

10 minutes left in the 4th.

Michigan punts.

yawn.

By christine on Oct 21, 2006 | Reply

Iowa starts at the 8. Or so.

3 & out and it looks like another punt.

How can I make this game more exciting?

By christine on Oct 21, 2006 | Reply

I will blog in Canadian, eh.

Michigan starts at aboot the 43.

No, that’s boring too.

Hart gets it moving a little.

Hart fumbled? And Iowa gets the ball?
No, Hart is down before the ball is out. Review please.

The Iowa head coach sure does get mad. Yikes.

ok, fumble overturned, Hart was down.

Iowa coach is just plain pissed off. His language was pretty colorful. That spiced up the game a bit.

OH MY GOD … this is taking forever for them to figure out where the ball is.

This is longer than it took my cousin Timmy to pick a card when we played Uno. (Timmy was color blind, but we didn’t know it back then)

The only way to make the game slower was to completely stop it. And that’s what they’ve done. Maybe there’s some really complicated math involved.

Ok, first down.

Another first down, Michigan.

Touchdown Michigan!!!!!!

FG good! 20-6, Michigan.

(ok, that was a little exciting)

Michigan kicks off. Iowa takes a knee in the end zone.

Iowa runs it up to about the 40. 3:42 left on the clock.

Iowa’s moving. Down to 2:51 on the clock, they’re at the Michigan 29.

At the Michigan 19. QB is sacked.

Up to the 16. Under 2 minutes.

Pass - incomplete.

4th down.

(ok, it’s not as boring now)

Almost intercepted.

Michigan has the football.
