from our readers everything up the middle, or, heck, let's even call a timeout on fourth down, and we'll fool them with another run up the middle. Amazing to me. I feel we deserved to lose when you give a game away and make it so easy for the other team. I don't see Ohio as beating us, but us beating ourselves and letting them start bragging all over again. I throw it back in Ohio's fans' face about what bowl they are going to this year and all I hear is we won our bowl game — beating Michigan. Talk around here already is for another 12-0 season for Ohio this year then a national championship game. I do believe if Hoke doesn't make the same decision he did this year we will beat Ohio next year and ruin their so-called undefeated season, which would make it all well worth the wait since they are eligible for a bowl next year. Let's just hope. I think Brady is a good coach and good recruiter, but he needs to start showing it on the field when big games are on the line. All Urban Meyer needs is a loss or two under his belt, and they will be looking to get rid of him here because that's how ignorant Ohio fans are. Amazing how all this trouble happens at Ohio, and they come out smelling like a rose with an elite coach. I feel they knew about all the problems ahead and had the whole Urban Meyer thing set up to all fall in place. Coach Hoke, the ball's in your court now and it's your time to be hated here in Ohio by beating Ohio and ruining their whole season. I know you have it in you, and I'm backing you 100 percent. Matt Kull Columbus, Ohio Matt, you do realize that Robinson was hurt the entire latter portion of the season, and that just a year earlier, he'd put on two of Michigan's better quarterback performances against Nebraska and then Ohio State? Obviously, Michigan thought Robinson would experience a better second half against Notre Dame, a team he had destroyed in the past. Michigan's best chance against Nebraska obviously involved Robinson. When he went out, Gardner hadn't played quarterback for weeks and had no clue about the game plan, etc., from the QB position. Versus Ohio State, Robinson played very little quarterback, and Gardner was besieged by the pass rush. Gardner gets his full opportunity this season, and that's great for Michigan. Moving him past a two-year starter and a captain and leader on the 2012 crew — one who led Michigan to an 11-2 record and a Sugar Bowl victory a year earlier — was simply not in the plan. Be Heard!
