Wolverines Wire update on injured players for both teams. https://wolverineswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/wolverines/football/2026/11/12/michigan-football-vs-oregon-full-thursday-injury-report/92753397007/

I wonder who didn't put their cell phone in airplane mode to cause this.

No, I'd be pooping (PG version) on it.

At Whit's End? Is Kyle Whittingham one-and-done at Michigan? Why Wolveri...Kyle Whittingham was a stop-gap hire that has gone awry.

FWIW - SP+ - Oregon by 9.3 FPI - Oregon by 15.4

I have to hand it to Sco Ducks Xs & Os, they have been doing an excellent job in reviewing the key factors in Duck games. I also like Landon Tengwall's Youtube channel which is focused on B1G mostly including a lot of Duck stuff. Highly recommended if you haven't already connected.

Game on!

Okay... I'm done with the reverse psychology predictions. Oregon 31-14 2 2 252

I couldn't imagine they would travel 3 times zone just one night before the game. Thanks for confirming this with the correct information. But at this rate, and for all we know, after we kick their butts tomorrow, we might be hosting those boys for a little while. And I bet there are a lot of disappointed Michigan fans out there hanging around airports.

I really like the Purina Puppy Chow stadium.

ROAD TRIP!!!

Ducks win 34-7 1 TO 2 Sacks 275 yards passing

They should have renamed it “The Mistake by the Lake.”

Update - Michigan flight has landed in Eugene. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/11/13/oregon-football-michigan-arrives-in-eugene-before-faa-grounding/92767517007/ Only the second ground stop since 9/11.

Michigan football planning to leave day early for Oregon gameWhittingham has opted to have his team travel out Thursday night, after practice, in order to help players and staff adjust their body clocks. “It’s the first time in my career that we’ve traveled three time zones,” Whittingham said. “We’ve traveled two a few times, but never experienced a three time-zone trip.” https://www.mlive.com/wolverines/football/2026/11/michigan-football-planning-to-leave-day-early-for-oregon-game.html

Correct, Michigan left Thursday Michigan football planning to leave day early for Oregon gameWhittingham has opted to have his team travel out Thursday night, after practice, in order to help players and staff adjust their body clocks. “It’s the first time in my career that we’ve traveled three time zones,” Whittingham said. “We’ve traveled two a few times, but never experienced a three time-zone trip.” https://www.mlive.com/wolverines/football/2026/11/michigan-football-planning-to-leave-day-early-for-oregon-game.html

It appears Michigan went wheels up about 54 minutes before the ground stop. If teams were scheduled to travel late....like Oregon did last Friday....there will be a lot of host teams sweating whether and how a game might be rescheduled. You are correct, about TV crews. The TV crew that is scheduled for the game in Eugene on Saturday is doing the Illinois at UCLA game tonight. They are probably already in L.A. But, might the ground stop continue long enough to affect their post-game departure to Eugene?

there could be problems with tv crews too

At this moment on Friday afternoon the FAA has implemented a nation-wide ground stop which disallows departing flights. Based upon what I can see via the Internet, it appears the Wolverines' flight had departed before the ground stop. They are due to arrive in Eugene about 4:50 local time.

I read somewhere they were traveling on Thursday to help adjust to time change

With an AIRLINE TRAFFIC STOP in place it's entirely possible there will be no game on Saturday, unless the Wolverines are already in town.

An offensive adjustment that seems to separate Mehringer’s strategy from Johnson’s is to not only get the ball out of Riaola’s hand faster by limiting his number of reads, but to immediately toss it out of bounds if those reads aren’t open. Less time = less pressure. That strategy is probably a focus going up against Michigan. Their secondary is solid across the board, but our receiving corp ain’t too shabby either.

Probably too costly. Should have partnered with Sassy Woof Potty Dog Poop Bag Holders.
