After Saturday, after App. State, after the 2008 season, you get tired, and sort of, used to losing. Which is really sad, and not the norm for Wolverines' fans. With that said, there are some things I just don't understand. Like:

• Why is Mike Williams still the starting safety? How many big plays does it take to be taken off the field?
• Why did Michigan have two walk on's starting on defense for the Illinois game? I would rather see four freshman making mistakes then walk on's.
• Why hasn't Michigan developed more depth at linebacker, and in the defensive backfield? I know recruiting is an issue, but there has to be "fast" players elsewhere that could learn the position and contribute.
• Why aren't they calling more roll outs for Tate? He likes to throw on the run, and the O line is having serious trouble pass protecting.
• Why is the Freep running articles like this: Where might MSU go bowling? State is 4-5. Get to .500 before you start talking bowl games for goodness sake.

Also: I re-watched the goal line stand by Illinois and those Big Ten officials should be suspended . I think Carlos might have scored on 1st-and-3rd downs, and you can't tell that Minors elbow hit outside the goal line (there was a leg in the way of the video) that play should be called 10-out-of-10 times a touchdown. They didn't have any evidence to overturn that call, none.

I'm not saying Michigan wins the game with that touchdown, but if your going to review the Roundtree and Minor play, they needed to review at least one of Brown's runs. Terrible Big Ten, Terrible. If your going to suspend players, you better look in your own house as well.
