Michigan's rushing attack carved up the blackshirt defense on Saturday in front of the 406th sellout in a row. They ran for more plays over 50 yards than they did all of last year. Justice Haynes is emerging as a dark horse for some postseason awards with his consistent weekly performances. The defense wouldn't let Dylan Raiola improvise in the pocket because they were seeing the Patrick Mahomes doppelganger on the ground for most of the afternoon. Here are some of the most amusing overreactions from Saturday's essential victory.

This is one of the most absurd and asinine tweets I have ever seen, but it occurs every single week that Michigan plays when he tweets. The miracle turned out to be a fluke, and it didn't cost Michigan the win, which makes this an overreaction that belongs in the internet hall of fame for one of the stupidest things ever tweeted.

This is an admission that you have no faith that Michigan can win and you don't know the game of football very well. It's an embarrassment that this guy is a fan of Michigan and astounding why he hasn't been sent to the dumpster yet by the Michigan sports department like James Yoder was.

Michigan's defense should have guarded the goal line with about eight defenders and rushed three. Instead there were four Nebraska players and only five defenders in the area. Position yourself in front of every receiver and you should easily be able to outnumber the wideouts by a two-to-one ratio.
