Here are the reaction posts from over the weekend from our Twitter and Facebook accounts.

The Good, The Bad & The Ugly - Michigan.

Good - The WIN. Opening game against a ranked rival.

The Bad - The running game. Needs improvement.

The Ugly - Special Teams. Every thing but field goals.

Honorable Mention: Jafar Armstrong 43 yards rushing with two touchdowns and 2 receptions for 11 yards receiving.


Michigan Grades

Offense: 24 points against a anticipated good Michigan defense is respectable.B.

Passing game was good, as expected Wimbush was better with the long ball. B 

The running game was fair at best C. 

The offensive line needs to block the outside rush better an from the total number of not QB rushing yards something has to improve for the running game C. I don't remember any false start flags.
The receivers did their jobs well caught some impressive passes an let some they should have caught get away B.
Play calling was pretty solid B.
Defense: They only gave up one touchdown and reminded me of the 2012 bend don't break Irish A-.
Defensive Line payed pretty well, long term depth may be the question. B+
Linebackers did well with pressure but pass coverage could be a future concern B-
Defensive backs made some good plays but got burned a few times. B
Defensive schemes we called well be the coaches A-.
Special Teams need work, a lot at this point D+

Kickoff, forget the TD return, the first kick went out of bounds F.
Kick Return, no fumbles is the best we can say C
Field Goals, He did what he is supposed to, once C+.

I know the individual grades don't equal the overall grades but they work in the spirit of the thing.
