Kelly re: Steve Elmer moving from guard to RT, the biggest difference between the two is at guard, "you're working in tandem."

The one obvious play where Elmer got beat, he simply stopped moving his feet after contact. You know Harry saw that and will work on that.

Fuck you! That's my gif!

I'm giving you one chance to pull it down before I ban you permanently!

And you don't even know the right places in South Bend to get weird!

You can't claim a GIF. Just face it, we're GIF weiner cousins or eskimo brothers or whatever you want to call it.

True, but I hear the tutoring lounge can get a little saucy.

Just checked the patent office and didn't see a copyright in place!

Says Riggs too valuable at D, that’s his priority.

Adds that “he could play every snap."

Hanratty was a boss last year when given his "extended" opportunity, and the coaches pulled the trigger finally.

Honestly very worried about Mattison cranking up the pressure and attacking Elmer's side a ton. We saw Golson sidestep Rice guys left and right...but Michigan players are not Rice players. Kelly and Co will need to run the ball well.

Yeah...except Hoke thinks we played Utah State and that we have a big bruiser RB. Maybe Cam? IDK

I'm expecting another par for the course, back and forth game... just hoping ND can get the bounces this time and or have the ball last. It'll be a fight.

Quoted for posterity. This is a serious concern. We haven't seen a tough defense yet, the DL at Michigan should be a step or ten better than Rice. I think Mattison can already see that Golson abandons the pocket quickly and that if he has time, he will find the open receiver.

Imperative that our ground game start out strong and Golson is given opportunities to bomb it deep to Fuller/Brown/Carlisle/Prosise.

I want to believe, like in the matrix, that Golson is really "the One" but until he proves it against stiffer competition, I'll anxiously await the next game.
