I attended the Michigan - Iowa game yesterday. From the way Michigan was performing in the last two games, I had expected a loss for us. It turned out, I was dead wrong.

We somewhat slacked off in the very first quarter, allowing a huge yard gain for Iowa. Within a few minutes into the game, Iowa was leading by seven points and my intuition of seeing a loss was strengthened. But thank goodness, that was about the only time Iowa looked stronger.

Well into the second quarter, Michigan slaughtered the Hawkeyes. A couple of beautiful passes, it seemed surreal when you were there and saw it with your own pair of eyes, even more if you were less than ten yards away from the end zone with the ball and the play was garnering momentum to your general direction, were made. I have two favorite plays.

First is the one where Henne, our new quarterback, threw a ball that seemingly hung in the air and was guided by the hands of the angels’ right into the hands of the receiver, who was on the far end of the press box. The receiver was Edwards I believe but I can't recall who it really was.

The second was a rush that happened just in front of me. There was this one guy, again Edwards I think, on the near side of the press box, rushing or standing it seemed with four or five, might be six Hawkeyes for all I know, in front of him but at the same time, there was a space between him and me. When I saw that, I shouted a “wow” in my mind. My mouth blurted “Go, go, go!”

The opposing players appeared to see the same thing too and scrambled to close the space. But, alas for them, hurrah for us, he ran past all, as swift as the Greek god Mercury, for a touchdown.

In the end, to my delight, I’m sure it to the Wolverines’ delight, the score line is 30 – 17 in favor of Michigan.

Next week, it’s Purdue. Some say Purdue could overcome us. I say Purdue, like Wisconsin last season, is nothing but a pretender.

The Michigan Marching Band procession. They marched from Revelli Hall near Elber Field right up to the Stadium, chanting "It's all about the Blue".
We’ll see.

errata - next week game is against Indiana, not Purdue. Another win for us. Should be a walk in the park. Thanks Weehong.

errata 2 - Revelli instead of Revell. Thanks Kirah.

p/s - Now, is there any more correction?
