    Penix had a bad game but a lot of that was due to how good Michigan’s defense was. They were the more complete team.

    Exactly my take away. Penix shit the bed but the MI defense had a lot to say about it. Credit to MI.

    Nah, michigan d wasn't actually that good... Penix missed multiple TDs that would have completely shifted the game... not entirely his fault, but he had lots of opportunities, chances that he hit against UT

    If Penix made half of the 10 - 12 dimes he made against UT, this game has a very different feel and possibly different outcome. I don’t recall seeing one in stride ball thrown. Most were behind or over thrown. Not having a serviceable RB and an anemic OL performance was too much to overcome.

    He had some costly drops, Nixons was a killer. He catches that in the flat he scores. Polk dropped another easy 1st down that keeps them rolling.
    He did miss Odunze for 7 early.

    It was good D but it seems like a play they make this year. Just that night. Maybe the Michigan DB is that good I don't fucking know.

    very important. All year, lots of plays eneded up working that "shouldn't" have... Polk, DJ, Rome... lots of plays that shouldnt have worked but guys made plays... not a single time tonight...

    That ball was thrown behind Polk, where the DB was able to make the play to swat it away. This was one of many uncharacteristically poor throws by Penix tonight. Michigan game planned and executed well to negate Washington’s strengths and were able to rattle Penix. Seems play calling didn’t address this to settle him down and get a rhythm. He was the Dr. Jekyll GOAT hero in the Sugar but the Mr. Hyde villain tonight.

    I love him too; he made watching UW football fun again. I can’t imagine anyone feeling more disappointed by tonight’s outcome than him.

    UW looked tight from the get-go. Even DeBoer looked like a guy who just lost his best client to Farmer’s top salesman.

    This seems worth bumping
