Tweet Quarterback Devin Gardner continues to improve at an amazing rate. The better Devin plays, the more Al Borges has opened up the playbook and there has been little drop off in play. Devin made several NFL caliber throws on Saturday that Michigan fans haven’t seen since 2007. Throwing the deep 15-20 yard out route between . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Iowa  Comments are closed  Football  Al Borges, Denard Robinson, Dennis Norfleet, Devin Funchess, Devin Gardner, Fitzgerald Toussaint, Frank Clark, Greg Mattison, Iowa Hawkeyes, Jake Ryan, Joe Reynolds, Jor Kerridge, Jordan Kovacs, Kenny Demens, Michigan Wolverines, Mike Kwiatkowski, Roy Roundtree, Stephen Hopkins, Thomas Gordon, Vincent Smith Tweet Quarterback Denard Robinson remained sidelined thanks to the wrath of the elbow gods and Devin Gardner saw his 2nd start of the season. There were thoughts after last week that Gardner’s performance was simply the result of playing a weak opponent in Minnesota. Those ideas where put to rest on Saturday as Devin led Michigan . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Northwestern Comments are closed Football Brendan Gibbons, Cam Gordon, Craig Roh, Denard Robinson, Desmond Morgan, Devin Funchess, Devin Gardner, Drew Dileo, Fitzgerald Toussaint, Frank Clark, J.T. Floyd, Jake Ryan, James Ross, Jeremy Gallon, Jibreel Black, Mark Venric, Michigan Wolverines, Northwestern Wildcats, Ondre Pipkins, Raymon Taylor, Roy Roundtree, Thomas Gordon, Will Hagerup Tweet Quarterback Devin Gardner was an All-American QB coming out of HS. Even so, his skills and ability at the QB position has largely been an unknown. Gardner beat out Tate Forcier for the #2 QB job during the fall of 2010 and briefly played in relief action but few outside of the coaches had seen . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Minnesota Comments are closed Football Denard Robinson, Devin Gardner, Drew Dileo, Fitzgerald Toussaint, Michigan Wolverines, Roy Roundtree, Thomas Rawls Tweet Michigan heads to Minnesota in another (nearly) annual battle for the Little Brown Jug. After finishing with an amazingly perfect record playing in the Metrodome, Michigan takes its first crack in the new TCF Bank stadium. Normally, even with Denard possibly out, beating Minnesota wouldn’t be all that difficult.

A mix of short precise routes and downfield passes kept Nebraska off balance and passive. Denard threw a beautiful post route to Roy Roundtree that was later ruled incomplete after replay and he continually found Jeremy Jackson in . . . → Read More: Grading The Performance: Nebraska Tweet Quarterback The QB play wasn’t always pretty on Saturday, but Denard Robinson made enough plays in the end with both his arm and his legs to put Michigan in position to win the game. Robinson completed just 48% of his passes on the day but converted some critical 3rd down passes to extend drives.

Despite returning fourteen starters, Michigan came into this season with some key questions. Through the first six games a number of those questions were answered, some continue to be the source of much debate. . . . → Read More: Mid-Season Observations: What Have We Learned?

Wiliams, David Molk, Devin Funchess, Elliott Mealer, Fitzgerald Toussaint, Jake Ryan, Kevin Koger, Michigan Wolverines, Ricky Barnum Tweet Quarterback Eliminating turnovers has been the point of emphasis for Denard Robinson since the spring. Through the early part of the season Denard had seemingly ignored what had been stressed to him by the coaching staff all off season.

With that said the members of team 133 did not give up, played hard and earned the respect of many Alabama players and fans (Editor’s Note: First-hand account).
