Thought about that. I think we kind of all knew, deep down in places we don’t talk about at parties, that we were going to blow in 2013.

So those lackluster wins over Akron and UCONN were kind of almost expected.

Back to the board

I was thinking about the fact that the WMU win was probably the least satisfying win of my UM fandom (which goes back quite a long time). Some other candidates… - By Craig September 11, 2026 at 11:18:33 AM

- I don't see any of those games as a bad win. Plus, here's my list. October 1998 for the win! - By GritsGoBlue September 11, 2026 at 12:11:48 PM
- can throw in the M00N game, too* - By ajs September 11, 2026 at 11:34:49 AM
- I would offer up 2019 Iowa game. A 10-3 home stinker that left me stupidly questioning where the Harbaugh era was going.* - By yarn September 11, 2026 at 11:31:00 AM
- No one mentioned 2013 Akron just yet.* - By LS&Play September 11, 2026 at 11:30:49 AM

    - The Akron one was out of nowhere. We had DOMINATED Notre Dame the week before and beat CMU 59-9 in Week 1.* - By LS&Play September 11, 2026 at 11:37:20 AM
      - Oh yeah…I think I conflated 2013 with 2014 (when ND kicked our ass)*** - By Craig September 11, 2026 at 11:45:02 AM
  - Back to back stink ass wins that year. 28-24 over Akron, 24-21 @ UCONN* - By brick September 11, 2026 at 11:33:08 AM
- Agree. I was thinking about the 2019 Army game*** - By Cincywolve September 11, 2026 at 11:30:18 AM
- Disagree vehemently about 2003 Minnesota win. That was an all-timer. About as fun and exciting as a game can be - By brick September 11, 2026 at 11:25:52 AM
  - I don’t know why I remember this so vividly, but immediately after the game ended, I posted something pretty intemperate here… - By Craig September 11, 2026 at 11:47:00 AM
    - LOL. (nm) - By GritsGoBlue September 11, 2026 at 12:14:25 PM
    - Lol. To me, 38-35 with 1,000 yards of offense, a pick-6, a transcontinental, a completed bomb pass and wild comeback on the road in the 4th quarter - By brick September 11, 2026 at 11:53:16 AM
  - Far less satisfying wins, imo: UMass 2010, Army 2019, SMU 2018, Appalachian State 2014, Utah 2002* - By brick September 11, 2026 at 11:30:10 AM
