The Grand Rapids Press: Article by Howie Beardsley

One quarter isn't good enough for Wolverines

by Howie Beardsley The Grand Rapids Press

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- The most asked question being tossed around the Beaver Stadium pressbox at the commencement of Saturday's Michigan-Penn State game was: Who are those guys impersonating football players in the maize and blue-colored uniforms?

Come to find out, it really was just an act on the part of the Wolverines.

Michigan made a failed attempt at being a worthy opponent against the No. 3 team in the country while continuing its freefall during a 46-17 loss.

Someday -- although it certainly appears it won't happen this season -- the Wolverines might figure out coach Rich Rodriguez's spread offense and will learn to put together four quarters of football and regain their status as one of game's best programs.

Right now, they're nowhere close. They have a 2-5 record, drawing closer to the school's first losing season since 1967, and while on the brink of being denied a bowl game bid for the first time in 33 seasons.
