Reach out to Cody and Buhler to tell them what's up!What up, Beck?!Yes, former Georgia quarterback Carson Beck has removed himself from the 2025 NFL Draft so that he can transfer to Miami to be with his girlfriend.John Buhler (Staff Writer, FanSided.com) obviously had some thoughts about this, but he only had The Starters to share them with, as Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) fought off something fierce.Buhler then touched on the latest in the Life of Brian Ferentz, Texas' bright future (we think...), and Marcus Freeman absolutely being in his bag at Notre Dame.Win or lose, rain or shine, False Start will be with you until the end of time!

We wait all year for the next football season, and, just like that, 11 game weeks are past and we are on to the final football Satur . . . er, Friday of the season. Before wrapping up with the final Hawkeye 4DT breakdown of the season, Brian and Zach look back on a 29-13 road win against Maryland, which saw the first start of the Jackson Stratton era, two 100 yard rushers, and a first half offensive production by the Terrapins that clearly had Brian Ferentz's fingerprints all over it! The guys also tip their caps to a great group of seniors (and maybe a junior or two) getting ready to play their last game in Kinnick on Friday night. After an up and down 2024 season that saw a resurgent offense and a frustratingly inconsistent defense, Brian and Zach look ahead to one final regular season game, as they break down the Black Friday matchup with the (bowl bound) Nebraska Cornhuskers. Will this come down to yet another last second field goal to decide it? Download and listen to see what the Hawkeye 4DT guys are predicting this Black Friday.

Disappointing loss against UCLA with the defense continuing to decline, and Sully going down helped sink the ship. Next up is Maryland and analyst Brian Ferentz. Fran's boys are 4-0 after a nice win in Moline over Washington State. Some intriguing talent on this team!

Now, they laugh at the offense that plays in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Former Packer and Hawkeye offensive lineman, Bryan Bulaga, joins to discuss the Heartland Trophy game (not the Freedom Trophy), whether Iowa and Wisconsin are still true peers in the Big Ten, his outside perspective of the Badgers as they continue their identity change under Luke Fickell, the mixed feelings from Iowa fans about the state of their program under Brian Ferentz, and he gives his predictions for this Saturday's game at Kinnick Stadium!

After yet another abysmal offensive season, Iowa finally cut ties with Brian Ferentz and brought in Tim Lester as their new OC. The Hawkeye D again looks like a behemoth that will dominate the conference. Will their O bring anything to the table this season?

Hawkeye 4DT - 2024 Offensive Preview The Hawkeye 4DT guys are (finally) back to kick-off another set of pre-season previews as we all count down to the kickoff of the 2024 football season! Starting this year's previews is the offensive side of the ball. Given this is Iowa football, we all know what to expect from Iowa's offense - well, that was the case until Brian Ferentz was relieved of his duties and Iowa (finally) hired a new OC, Tim Lester. This year, Brian and Zach start with their reactions to the hire before doing a position-by-position breakdown of Lester's inaugural offensive campaign. As mentioned (several times during this week's episode), at least it can't be worse!

The Iowa Hawkeyes lead the Big Ten in returning starters this year, but it's the departure of a staff member that could have the biggest impact on their 2024 season.Long-time offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz fell far short of the point total needed to remain in his position in 2023, and now Tim Lester has taken over the reins of the offense. Will that, and the healthy return of players like QB Cade McNamara and TE Luke Lachey be enough to improve the Hawkeyes enough to make the College Football Playoff?Chad Leistikow of the Des Moines Register joins host Tom Orr to discuss one of the Big Ten's most intriguing teams.

The Big Ten has undergone a seismic shift since Michigan lifted the national championship trophy in January. With Jim Harbaugh off to the NFL, the likes of Oregon, Washington, and USC joining the conference, Brian Ferentz finally getting sacked, and much more, 2024 will be a massive year of change. However, with all this change, will Ohio State return to the top of the league as they have for years?

Former Iowa Football offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz has landed a new job with the Maryland Terrapins. Plus, what does freshman OL Josh Janowski bring to the Hawkeye trenches?

Nebraska Football coach Matt Rhule has an absolute rising star at quarterback in 5-star true freshman Dylan Raiola.  We were cautious about starting true freshman at Power 4 schools.  Then we saw Raiola perform in the annual Nebraska Spring Football game in Lincoln this weekend.  He is the real deal!  Tune in here to find out why we think Matt Rhule should start Dylan Raiola immediately this season.  He is ready-built to play college football.  His poise, calmness and ability are not often seen in true freshman.  He is an early enrollee and should actually be going to prom right now instead of leading the Huskers in front of 60,000 optimistic Nebraska football fans.QUARTERBACKS TAKE OVERDylan Raiola was not the only quarterback who looked good this weekend.  Oregon football kicked off their spring game will Dillon Gabriel under center.  He looks like he is ready to take over for first round NFL pick Bo Nix.Maryland discovered it may have to rely on its defense this year and Rutgers capped off its spring game in the coolest way ever.  Tune in here to find out what happened.BIG 10 COACHING NEWSIn coaching news former Iowa football offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz and former Michigan basketball coach Juwan Howard found new jobs.  One of them will remain in the Big 10.Finally, we close things out with our Top 10 Big 10 observations from the exciting weekend.  It is all one click away on Locked on Big 10! Connect on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/talkbig10Website & Merch: https://talkbig10.com Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…

Are you buying what Drake Maye is selling?Maye may be Cody Williams' guy but he is one of the most polarizing quarterbacks prospects in this draft. John Buhler may not love the guy, but he's certainly no Merril Hoge.While Caitlin Clark was the best thing to ever happen to Iowa Hawkeyes' women's basketball, Brian Ferentz was the worst thing to ever happen on the gridiron at Kinnick.And not to be outdone, John Calipari leaves Kentucky for Arkansas like he is Jimbo Fisher or something.Episode 64 of False Start was a wild one. John Buhler (Staff Writer, FanSided.com) and Cody Williams (Senior Editor, FanSided.com) touched on those three subjects, as well as very important Nintendo 64 things, a brief dive into The Beatles' song catalogue and who could ever forget about Spring Break with Antonio Banderas?!

Many internet users have asked us to comment on the story that Brian Ferentz had the audacity to visit Matt Rhule. Connor says this isn't an issue. Producer Josh tells the internet nerds to "touch grass"

Kirk Ferentz and Iowa football over-achieved their way to 10 wins and an appearance in the Big 10 championship game last season.  Despite a true lack of offense and injury after injury the Hawkeyes continued to win games.  Give a lot of credit to Kirk Ferentz.  As far as coaches go, he's a pro's pro.  Sadly for him, he had to fire his son Brian Ferentz as the team's offensive coordinator.  Tim Lester will call the offense in 2024 but he will enter spring football without quarterback Cade McNamara who is still recovering from a knee injury.  A lot of questions remain for Iowa football and whether they can match their amazing 2023 season.CRAZY NIGHT!Find out why Assembly Hall had to be evacuated in the middle of the Wisconsin - Indiana basketball game Tuesday night.  Wisconsin had just stormed back from 13 down to tie the game in the second half when the real excitement began!And Purdue Boilermaker big man Zach Edey set another record with another Big 10 player of the week award.We also discuss whether Caitlin Clark will return for another season at Iowa instead of departing for the WNBA.  She might make more money if she stays.RANKINGSFinally, we close things out with our weekly Big 10 Men's Basketball Power Rankings on Craig Shemon's Locked on Big 10!Connect on Twitter:  https://twitter.com/talkbig10Website & Merch: https://talkbig10.com Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…

He talks about his recruitment, how we ended up playing Quarterback in High School, and what it felt like stepping onto the field for the first practice as a Hawkeye. He also talks about the adversity the team faced over his years in the program, including major obstacles like the pandemic, the Coach Doyle drama, and the Brian Ferentz situation this past season. How did he grow from that as a leader and teammate, and how loud was the outside noise truly. Why they were able to stick together as a team and what led that, and how it felt going back to Ames to play in Jack Trice.

Richard, Godfrey, and Alex start this week's show by discussing the savvy maneuvering of Iowa's new athletic director, Beth Goetz, in announcing the end of Brian Ferentz's tenure as offensive coordinator. Then let's group the remaining Playoff possibilities by how their work is cut out for them, and let's preview a Week 10 slate led by Alabama and LSU.

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI's Pat Forde react to the first edition of College Football Playoff rankings for the 2023 season.Ohio State comes in at the top spot in the first edition of 2023 CFP rankings after a strong resume through 9 weeks. The crew debates not on if they are unworthy of the #1 ranking, but rather when Georgia will make the jump up to the top spot.The Connor Stalions situation continues to amaze as new photos of a person resembling Stalions on the sidelines of the Central Michigan-Michigan State game have emerged. If the figure ends up proven to be Stalions attempting to steal signs, this may be one of the all-time scandals that the sport has ever seen.Alabama and LSU are squaring off this weekend in Tuscaloosa after a hard fought battle last season. This intense matchup could sink Alabama's playoff hopes with an LSU win, but the guys aren't quite ready to count out Nick Saban this season, especially in big SEC matchups.Missouri is facing off against #1 ranked Georgia this weekend, continuing a stretch of tough SEC opponents for the Bulldogs. The guys discuss Mizzou's upside while acknowledging that in ranked matchups, Georgia tends to wake up and take command of games.The state of Iowa continues to misbehave as the Iowa Hawkeyes announced that offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz will not be returning to call plays next season. Amidst an incentive-laden contract that demanded 25 points per game and a very bad offensive output, the experiment has ended for Ferentz.Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney had a fiery reaction to a caller on his radio show on Monday night. After the caller questioned Dabo's contract in a down year, Swinney went on a 5 minute rant explaining the nature of football along with his perspective when fans react this way.In the final Oklahoma-Oklahoma State Bedlam matchup for a long time, Mike Gundy and Brian Bosworth exchanged words leading up to the game. Gundy recalls when the game used to be a true rivalry, while Bosworth is excited to send it out with a bang and meet up with Gundy ahead of their matchup on Saturday. Even though Oklahoma is leaving for the SEC, there doesn't appear to be any love lost between the two schools.To close out the podcast, the Santa Cruz sea otter makes her triumphant return & the People's Court takes on a case of the hungry firefighters.1:00 - CFP rankings reaction9:20 - Was Connor Stalions on the sidelines for Central Michigan vs. Michigan State?17:10 - Alabama vs. LSU preview25:14 - Mizzou faces off against Georgia29:36 - Brian Ferentz will not be returning to Iowa39:40 - Dabo Swinney sounds off on his radio show50:04 - Final Bedlam matchup between Oklahoma & Oklahoma State59:22 - Santa Cruz sea otter has returned with company1:02:20 - People's Court: Hungry firefightersFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger

This week on the Moonlight Graham Show, we delve into the story of Brady Ross, a former Iowa Hawkeye fullback whose journey and character perfectly capture the essence of what this show and Iowa Hawkeye football are all about. Ross, who joined the Iowa program as a walk-on and transitioned from linebacker to fullback, truly embodies the role-player spirit. During his four years starting, Ross's stats might not jump off the page - with only 13 carries, 25 total yards, a touchdown, and seven receptions - but his commitment and selflessness speak volumes about his dedication to the team. Renowned for putting the team's needs above his own and being a consistent and reliable blocker, Ross's contributions extend beyond traditional stats, making him an ideal guest for our show. Though he might not be a headline-maker, his impact on the Hawkeye football program is undeniable, as he's even caught the attention of national platforms like Barstool Sports. Contrary to initial expectations of Ross being a stereotypical "football bro," the interview reveals a different side. Ross surprises with his thoughtful, intelligent perspectives, offering more than just football insights. His background from Humboldt, Iowa, close to Fort Dodge, adds to his relatable, down-to-earth personality. The timing of the episode is particularly relevant, considering the recent developments with Iowa's offensive coordinator, Brian Ferentz. Ross provides an insider's perspective, defending the Hawkeye program and offering insights that regular fans and commentators might overlook. His interview not only sheds light on his experiences within the offense but also eloquently defends the coaching and the program's direction. Brady Ross's story is a testament to the underdog spirit, encapsulating the Moonlight Graham Show's mission to highlight those who make significant contributions in less visible roles. His journey from walk-on to a key player in a top college program, his approach to the game, and his ability to articulate a player's perspective on the broader aspects of college football, make this episode a must-listen for fans seeking a deeper understanding of the game and the people who play it.

Ari, David and Scott Dochterman react to Iowa's announcement that Brian Ferentz won't be returning as the program's offensive coordinator next season. Scott and the guys converse about interm AD Beth Goetz's decision, Kirk Ferentz's future, what the next OC's philosophy should be, and what this move means for Hawkeyes around the world.

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI's Pat Forde review the loaded slate of Week 5 college football games on today's podcast.To kick things off, Notre Dame gets a solid bounce-back win against Duke. The Fighting Irish have played in back-to-back rollercoaster games, but come out on top in this one after losing in the final seconds last week to Ohio State.The Georgia Bulldogs had to lean heavily on star tight end Brock Bowers in order to beat Auburn on Saturday. Auburn showed up to play and made Georgia look a little more vulnerable than everyone projected.Kentucky had a dominant win over Florida behind Ray Davis's 280-yard performance on the ground. The podcast imagines how Florida fans must be feeling after seeing other programs rebuild so quickly while trying to remain patient under the Billy Napier regime.The SEC is a mess this year and there is no clear favorite to win the west division. The guys analyze who could come out on top at the end of the season and separate from the rest of the pack.Ole Miss won in an epic shootout against LSU on Saturday. The Rebels took advantage of LSU's weak secondary and put Brian Kelly on the warm seat in Baton Rouge.Caleb Williams dominated in a big win over Colorado. Coach Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes tried to climb back in it, but the USC offense just couldn't be stopped. The USC defense, on the other hand, raises a lot of questions about whether or not they can really compete for a title.The Red River rivalry returns next week with a now 5-0 Texas Longhorns team facing off against a 5-0 Oklahoma Sooners team. This should be the game of the week, so the guys look ahead as the two teams face off for the final time as members of the Big 12.In other news, Dan, Ross & Pat reflect on the infamous murder of Tupac Shakur 27 years ago, and the arrest of his alleged killer Duane “Keffe D” Davis this week in Las Vegas.To close out the episode, the guys provide a Brian Ferentz scoring update, give thoughts on a sleepy Penn State team, they Say Something Nice & give out their Small Sample Heisman candidates.1:00 - Notre Dame bounces back to beat Duke6:15 - Georgia edges out Auburn11:47 - Kentucky cruises past Florida16:40 - Who will win the SEC West?20:47 - LSU falls to Ole Miss in a thriller25:38 - Is USC's defense a liability?31:37 - The Red River Rivalry returns next week38:50 - West Virginia is heating up after beating TCU42:19 - Tupac Shakur's killer is identified and charged after 27-year mystery48:08 - Iowa's Brian Ferentz scoring update49:29 - Did Clemson restore any faith after beating Syracuse?50:35 - Penn State looked shaky vs. Northwestern52:15 - Say Something Nice58:13 - Small Sample HeismanFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellenger

Offense vs Rutgers Starts at 1:00 Traditionally, this podcast has always started without Lou Holtz, but we challenge him to come here. JJ kept the ball a lot, it felt like Michigan took this game seriously. We're starting to get worried about Donovan Edwards' run game, he's leaving yards on the field. Blake Corum looks like he's all the way back, though, the offensive line will probably grade out well overall. LaDarius Henderson was playing on and off. It feels like we're at the floor at tackle as far as preseason expectations go, we're in game four and don't know who the starters are. JJ's first few throws were questionable or inaccurate, but then he leveled out. When's the last time they threw a tunnel screen? Semaj Morgan looked good but he's small out there. We think the cyan worked? The flea flicker was from Super Tecmo Bowl. Get Trente Jones the ball! The amount of times JJ ran felt about right also, good that he always got out of bounds. Max Bredeson's blocking has been great.  [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]   2. Defense vs Rutgers Starts at 39:34 Rod Moore lets a 69 yard touchdown get by and then gets benched for a bit, Quentin Johnson came in and looked pretty good again. Rutgers got the edge a couple times. The only other time they were able to move the ball was when Wimsatt was possessed by the ghost of Unstoppable Throw God Trevor Siemian for half a drive. Rutgers couldn't move the ball against the starting defensive line but were able to push the backups around. Linebackers played great, Mike Barrett looked like a fully weaponized middle linebacker. Haussmann had a really good game, Junior Colson is just not making mistakes in the run game. Mike Sainristil absolutely dump trucked Junior Colson during his interception. Everyone thinks the play is dead except Mike Sainristil and Kenneth Grant, who is impossibly fast for his size here. Michigan defeats the number one thing Rutgers had, which was a running back lead block for the quarterback. Rutgers felt like a much more functional football team this year.  3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 1:00:38 Brian's Hot Takes voice was actually just a Ryan Day impression this whole time. Aussie punters are annoying, we don't like it. Thaw needs to get to that ball, someone else should be spotting it. Tommy Doman kicked a punt that still hasn't landed yet. The officials had a day, good thing it was a Ref Day in a game where it didn't matter. The Loveland first down was really bad, they marked a clear 3rd and 1 from Donovan Edwards short, they called a pass interference after a receiver gave up on the route. Why do you hate Michigan, KYLE?! They've been slow out of the huddle and had to call timeouts twice. Kalel Mullings could very well be the starter next year, and maybe even take some carries away from Edwards this season.  4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:27:45 Ohio State - 17 Notre Dame - 14 Defensive battle with a lot of drives that end on 4th down. Notre Dame bottles up Ohio State's passing attack and short yardage runs. Sam Hartman throws every possible 4 yard pass en route to 175 yards. The ending was wild and is discussed. JTT and Sawyer look like they haven't developed at all but Notre Dame has two great tackles. Notre Dame puts 10 guys on the field for the final two plays. The way Ohio State runs this game is how they lose to Michigan. The bad half Ryan Day was referring to was not even the one we were thinking of. The Lou Holtz thing is even funnier in context.    Nebraska - 28 Louisiana Tech - 14 Nebraska's QB had more rushing yards than passing yards. They've discarded the forward pass, as God intended. Nebraska has a 330 lbs defensive tackle that wears zero. This next game will be a test for Michigan's rush offense, Nebraska may give Michigan some answers about where they are.    Maryland - 31 Michigan State - 9 George Blaha said what?? Michigan State turned it over FIVE times, even though they outgain Maryland. There were some positive signs that they might be able to hang with some of the middle to lower tier big ten teams but we also saw what happened against Washington. It might be a worse sign for Maryland.    Penn State - 31 Iowa - 0 Cade McNamara, 5-14 for 42 yards. Iowa's running backs combine for 27 yards. Penn State runs almost 60 more plays. It's about if Kirk Ferentz is getting fired at this point, not just Brian Ferentz. Four first downs to four turnovers, the stats just keep getting worse. Not sure you can extrapolate much from Penn State's defense in this. Penn State ground game was bottled up, passing game seemed fine.   Indiana - 29 (4OT) Akron - 27 Indiana's safeties are terrible. Akron outgains Indiana 474-282. Indiana has combined for 8 rushing first downs against three FBS teams this season. Akron is a bad MAC team.    Illinois - 23 Florida Atlantic - 17 Illinois outgains FAU 510-353. Still a little skeptical of this Illinois team but they looked a lot better in this game, even got out of a scoring hole. They're not good but they don't seem dire.    Northwestern - 37 (OT) Minnesota - 34 Northwestern comes back from a 21 yard deficit and gains 492 yards. AJ Henning has a game tying touchdown. These are the games Minnesota usually takes care of and helps them eek out 8 wins. Doesn't look like that will be the case this year. Wisconsin - 38 Purdue - 17 Tanner Mordecai had 13 rushes that weren't sacks. Wisconsin is probably going to sleepwalk to the division title because nobody else is even trying in the West.

The Michigan State Situation Starts at 1:00 ESPN and USA Today have released articles detailing Mel Tucker's investigation of sexual harassment involving Brenda Tracy. Mel Tucker is turbo fired but legally they need to follow the process and put him on administrative leave for now. An alarming number of Big Ten programs have tried to hide damning reports from the media. When will universities hold themselves accountable for their actions? [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Offense vs UNLV Starts at 17:04 Once again, the story is JJ playing out of his mind. The evaluating of his incompletions is, once again, short. Some of his throws are just ridiculous. When the linebackers turn their backs, he sees it and throws behind them. His pocket movement is good enough to give him the extra beat to get a throw off. He even had a couple nice runs. The receivers appear to be reading the coverage and JJ is on the same page as them. The only thing we really haven't seen is a deep ball. UNLV covered the deep and intermediate routes, so JJ just hits Blake Corum for 20 yards. JJ is projecting to be the best Michigan quarterback of our lives. Where is Alex Orji? Jack Tuttle's run looked really nice before he got injured. Jayden Denegal had a nice throw. Tyler Morris has emerged and is a good blocker. The ground game wasn't what you'd like. UNLV did load the box at times but the dive plays are too predictable. They're not rotating the tackles like they said they would. It doesn't look like there's any major issue but there are a bunch of little things. Is there reason to just expect this year's run game to not be the same as last year? Even if that's the case, that's fine because JJ.  3. Hot Takes, Defense, and Special Teams Starts at 1:06:54 Takes hotter than JJ McCarthy, what else is there to say? How upsetting is it that Michigan got the same score as Ohio State? We were all hyped up about the Go-Go offense and then they didn't do anything. The expectations for the defensive line are being met emphatically. Cam Goode is out there making plays. Derrick Moore is moving incredibly for someone that weighs 260 pounds. Who is blocking this defensive line, Purdue? Mike Barrett's ability to locate a swing pass early was fun. No Rod Moore, Will Johnson came in for a series. Keon Sabb played like a promising sophomore. Caden Kolesar shined in this game. Jyaire Hill seems like he's still on track to start by the end of the year. Punt return situation is a bit of a caretaker situation. Tommy Doman is booming his punts.  4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:49:33 Iowa - 20 Iowa State - 13 Cade McNamara was 12/22 for 123 yards and an interception. Oof. Defensive touchdowns do count for Brian Ferentz's 25 points per game goal.  Colorado - 36 Nebraska - 14 Who has the most career turnovers as a player (fumbles and interceptions). Jeff Sims has to be up there (he's at 37). This game had to be so frustrating for the Nebraska defense. They had eight sacks!  Purdue - 24 Virginia Tech - 17 Purdue has a viable run game and destroyed the Virginia Tech run game. It's a road game win against a power five team for the Big Ten! The rain delay in this game was five and a half hours. Purdue spent its time playing spades.  Washington State - 31 Wisconsin - 22 Who isn't rooting for Washington State this season, all things considered? Oregon State fans cheered really loud when this score was announced at their stadium. It's depressing that both of these teams will lose almost all the traditions their fans grew up to love. It's a sin against college football for Wisconsin to not be Wisconsin and they are being punished. Ohio State - 35 Youngstown State - 7 Feels like a vintage Ohio State team should score 70 in this game. Notre Dame is looming in two weeks and the Irish are looking pretty good.  Kansas - 34 Illinois - 23 Illinois had a defensive collapse, giving up 277 passing yards and allowing two rushers to get 120 and 98 yards. Kansas only punted once. Illinois has Penn State up next, this could be a long year for the Illini. Their dudes at defensive tackle got wrecked. The rest of the games were pretty much blowouts, there aren't really any takes. Besides Biff Poggi's arms.  MUSIC: “Bloodless”— Andrew Bird “Valentine”— Drugdealer “Psychos”—  Jenny Lewis “Across 110th Street”

Featured Musician: Cut Worms The Video: 1. UNLV Preview starts at the top Go Go offense is the headliner, even though there aren't many good players to run it. Ricky White returns to Michigan Stadium with a lefty mobile QB who can sling it a little. Not a great OL, but tricksome in a this is the next evolution of the spread 'n shred sort of way. Defense gave up a lot of yards to Bryant—probably is going to get boatraced. They play a Buck 425 with a lot of up-transfers, but defense was their HC's specialty. 2 and 3. The Sklars starts at 17:17 and 45:13 Jason and Randy join us as we talk Lions, Clemsoning, Dabo's version of “NIL” and calling out Brian Ferentz. Where were the rushing yards?

Offense vs ECU Starts at 1:00 Michigan football has returned! The red hat guy chased Brian out of the stadium at the end of this game. ECU kicked The Sad Field Goal to keep their scoring streak alive. Train made all the right people upset so bravo for that. Initial results are that JJ McCarthy has made The Leap and has taken the training wheels off (and also has the ability to “extend the neutral zone”). Are teams going to continue to stuff the run and ask JJ to beat them, especially if he says “ok”? Running dive five times in a row just to get Donovan Edwards a touchdown probably wasn't necessary. The play action approach in this game was much better than last year. Myles Hinton probably isn't going to be the starting tackle once the starting line is set, Trente Jones came in and immediately started moving people. Barnhart at left tackle seemed a lot more smooth. It was an excellent day for the receivers. Roman Wilson doesn't block like Ronnie Bell but can get over the top of a safety playing 11 yards off the line. AJ Barner's blocking wasn't encouraging, Bredeson is probably the second blocking tight end. Is Colston Loveland so good that he's just boring now? [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Defense vs ECU Starts at 42:32 Michigan rotated five DTs and five DEs and there seemed to be no drop-off. Hausmann looked really good, he'll be a dude. You could also move him at either middle or weak side linebacker. The secondary was missing Will Johnson and Rod Moore, Josh Wallace looked really good. The Almost Interception was a great play and an encouraging sign for the season. Sabb looked competent out there, ECU isn't going to stress safeties much though. The way Derrick Moore moves around the field, you have to imagine he'll break out eventually. Kenneth Grant - OH LAWD HE COMIN. Josiah Stewart is looking like a fairly one-dimensional passing down kind of guy. 3. Hot Takes and Special Teams Starts at 1:05:57 Tommy Doman has a cannon of a leg, so punting is back in a good place. His kickoffs were also bombs. James Turner had a really weird game at kicking. Missed an extra point and a long field goal but made the best field goal of his career. We did not see Alex Orji returning punts, sadly. Jake Thaw as a punt returner didn't look comfortable at first. Plenty of opportunities this season to field punts, at least. Nice to see Michigan notice a defense that's aggressive at stopping the run and airing it out sooner, rather than waiting a couple quarters. Keep an eye on Kalel Mullings as the season goes on. The scoreboards are bigger but the replay part of the scoreboards are not. Do we need to keep cycling what 7:30pm games are on that night? Officiating was… kind. That targeting on JJ was egregious, it was exactly the kind of hit the game is trying to get rid of. 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:33:48 Ohio State - 23 Indiana - 3 Ohio State really couldn't do much against the Indiana defense… Egbuka and Harrison combined for 34 yards. This is not going to be the #1 offense in the country in SP+. They're still getting stuffed on 3rd down. Indiana had a great defensive game plan but couldn't do a thing on offense. McCord does not look comfortable being aggressive throwing downfield. Michigan State - 31 Central Michigan - 7 We probably didn't learn much about the Michigan State defense because Central Michigan has a freshman QB who can't do much. Noah Kim had an awful first quarter performance. This was too much of a fight against a bottom half MAC team. Alante Brown was knocked out of the game and went back in later - it was a Shane Morris incident again. Illinois - 30 Toledo - 28 Toledo held a lead for most of this game because Illinois couldn't get out of their own way. 90 yards of penalties in the first half but they got a pick six in the second half. Iowa - 24 Utah State - 13 Did not meet the 25 points required to save Brian Ferentz's career. Cade McNamara resumes his role as a game manager, but they scored on their first two drives. Couldn't do much more after that. Penn State - 38 West Virginia - 15 Drew Allar's first start went very well against a defense that's not supposed to be very good, but an encouraging sign for Penn State. Penn State running game was okay. West Virginia could possibly be really bad? Penn State missed two field goals. Minnesota - 13 Nebraska - 10 You can take Scott Frost out of the state but you can't take the Scott Frost out of the football program. Nebraska had a 94% chance to win this late into the game. Minnesota could not run the ball at all. Nebraska threw three picks, losing in the most Nebraska way possible. Maryland - 38 Towson - 6 Moving on! Wisconsin - 38 Buffalo - 17 Wisconsin has moved to an air raid passing offense and put up 300 yards of rushing between their two backs. Air raid not fully installed yet. Tanner Mordecai was 24/31 for 189 yards and two interceptions. Braelon Allen had 7 catches for 25 yards. Mo Linguist is Buffalo's head coach so they have a good secondary.
