This really pissed me ( Read more... )

Michigan football won today by a score of 67-65 in triple overtime against Illinois at home. It was a thrilling game, but the defense still sucked. How many times do you see a team give up 65 points and still win?! Michigan even had 5 turnovers. You don't usually win when you turn the ball over that many times either. Today's game was Michigan ( Read more... )
