9/4 Notes
I will be busy for the next week so I won't be able to do any new postings. I am still looking for a writer to cover either the Lions,Tigers,Pistons,Redwings, or Michigan Football. Please email me if you are interested.
Blue Notes-the Michigan Wolverines won their first game of the season on Saturday over Miami of Ohio. They soundly beat them 43-10.
The big story of this game was Michigan's starting quarterback. They were going to start Matt Gutierrez but because he had a sore arm, Michigan started freshman Chad Henne. Henne did good going 14-24 for 142 yards. He threw 2 touchdowns and 1 interception.
Stud reciever Braylon Edwards caught 6 passes for 91 yards and 2 touchdowns. He also nearly got his third at the end of the game but he missed the endzone by one yard. Running back David Underwood also looking good gaining 61 yards on 22 carries. He also scored 2 touchdowns.
Michigan's defense won the game for them. They picked off Josh Betts 4 times and recovered one fumble. At one point in this game, Miami was down only 24-10 and was in the red zone,but Ernest Shazor ended any thoughts of a comeback when he picked off a pass and went 88 yards the other way for a score. It was the third longest interception return in Michigan's history.
This was a good way to start the season and Michigan now looks on too next Saturday when they play their rivals, Notre Dame. Whenever these teams play, you can always expect a great game.
