Michigan Football: 3 overreactions from the Indiana win

3. The crowd was justified in leaving early because of the score and the weather

When the calendar turns to October the weather usually doesn’t cooperate. That was the way it went with the rain on Saturday and the lopsided score didn’t help either. The student section was basically empty by the fourth quarter and not filled to capacity to begin with. Besides students have more important things to do, like study.

Going to a home game in Michigan Stadium is sacred and only happens about six or seven times a season. Enjoying the experience is momentarily, but worth it if you travel the country and visit these stadiums that are treated like religions in some parts. Saturdays in the fall at Michigan Stadium are as wholesome as it gets. That makes this an overreaction.

Imagine a kid going to the Big House for the first time and walking through the tunnel to his seat. That is a life-altering experience and makes you want to do it over and over again.

The other side of the argument would be going to every matchup and it becoming like a second nature to those folks. For me personally, it will always be special and I think more people need to be reminded of that.
