4:27 AM – Here I am again, up and at ‘em well before the sun has come up to watch the Irish take on one of their mortal rivals. My dedication is starting to push the limits of sanity.
4:43 AM – Kickoff finally arrives. Is that the ghost of Lou Holtz stalking the Irish sideline?
4:48 AM – The rain plays its part in helping along a Michigan turnover on a muffed backward pass. Irish take over at the Michigan 12. Let’s see how the Irish blow this golden opportunity…
4:51 AM – Touchdown, Irish! And even the PAT was good. Asaph Scwhapp paved the way for Hughes to rumble in from the 2. Did I actually write that Schwapp finished a block?
4:55 AM – Michigan fumbles the kickoff again and super Rudy Mike Anello dives in like a heat-seeking missile to recover for the Irish.
4:57 AM – Clausen to Kumara for another Irish TD! They connect on the same fade route that they failed at last week, ya know when Kumara was apparently drunk. This one looked much, much better. The Michigan defensive back named Trent is getting abused so far this game.
It’s 5 AM and I’m actually happy to be up. Amazing.
