Michigan as the 2021 football champions of the B1G?
It's not possible.
But it really happened. I saw it.
There's film and everything.
I am still trying to understand it, but it's the best possible bafflement. Georgia is a beast, and a wounded one. But we're here, and that was unimaginable in September.
But we weren't done, apparently. There was still Sunday to consider.
The Lions winning their first of the season on the last play of the game? Walking off instead of being walked off?
Not the DETROIT Lions, right?
No, really--our Detroit Lions:
Good. This team has earned some joy after so much heartbreak.
And Steelers fans, enjoy an early Christmas present. Your tie is fast fading from memory.
As for the home team: if worse comes to worst, 1-15-1 is a lot easier to bear than a second sixteen loss season. And after an infusion of top-of-each-round draft talent into a band of energetic scrappers who have rarely quit despite the mounting losses...maybe a fast return to mediocrity is in order.
Which, given my life of Lions fandom (1 whole playoff win), is all I dare let myself hope for.

Be reasonably civil. Ire alloyed with reason is fine. But slagging the host gets you the banhammer.
