RIT @ Michigan, Thursday and Friday....

Re: RIT @ Michigan, Thursday and Friday....

Hey, we finally woke up in the last minute!

I don't think they were sleeping. It sounds to me like they're not playing poorly, just maybe a step behind the Wolverines... much like AIC tends to play a step behind the Tigers.

Re: RIT @ Michigan, Thursday and Friday....

As a Tiger fan, I truly appreciate that perspective. We know we're growing, but we also know our place in the NCAA world. I can tell you from closely watching the Tigers of the last 4 years that we can just as easily upset a team as we can look like a joke compared to them.

We've been beaten before by a Niagra team that wasn't supposed to be good, too. They turned out very good. IMHO, once a team establishes a program is real, the coaching staff ususally can keep something going.

And Michigan is building again- it's part of college sports.

We left the game after 2 (mrs alfa is nursing a cold), and while the play is mostly in the RIT end, it's not as if the Tigers are not getting some good chances- BC constantly shows that you can play that way and win, convincingly. Only the first goal was a real gaffe on the RIT D- the other two were pretty good plays, especially the 3rd by Trouba.

You are still good.

Cool. Never been happier to lose a point in the pick 'em. Congrats Tigers!
 
Re: RIT @ Michigan, Thursday and Friday....

Thanks for the link Alton, it was a great 3rd period and OT to watch live!

Blue had lots of chances there too but Watson kept them out.
 
Re: RIT @ Michigan, Thursday and Friday....

So uh.. what happened to the Michigan fans?

Thursday night games tend to do that. No offense, but it's not like this was MSU or another big rival. Typical crowd for a odd night, non conference game. It actually works in the opponent's favor, anyway.
 
Re: RIT @ Michigan, Thursday and Friday....

Michigan, what's up against the D-III playups? You lose to "the weakest 4th team in GLI history" in 2009, get whupped by Union last year, and now lose to RIT in overtime.

Sorry, but the lack of dominance must extend. Go tiggers! :D
