Fifty! THANK YOU listeners!! In this milestone ep we discuss the victory on the scoreboard over Arkansas State...but the game made Michigan fans & the coaching staff wiggle. We hit you straight with the concerns, and attempt to squeeze a drop of Brightside out of a stone. Don't look now - with another massive game at the Big House against Southern Cal on Saturday the Pundit will get you ready. The Prof shares a brief note about Michigan's departed Secret Weapon Greg Harden, and discusses the mess at the M Den. We close with a whip around the B1G and nation, and finally -- things only we care about! (Maybe we saved the best for last this time) We are brought to you by Nick Hopwood and Peak Wealth Management! Call Nick (734) 681-7575! Or Visit www.peakwm.com! Go Blue!

All good things? If you open this podcast you came for therapy (or revel in our misery). Either way we've got what you need: a breakdown of the beatdown at the hands of Texas, where we lost the game, and yes - a bit of Mr. Brightside to raise you up. We whip around the Big Ten to find we're not the only ones who struggled, and nationally, smile when we realize at least Notre Dame does not have it better than us.
