The Michigan Daily football writers break down the weekend’s stats that don’t show up in the boxscore. The defense-o-meter measures the intensity of the defense, the Carr-o-meter judges Lloyd Carr’s demeanor following the game, and the hypemeter measures the fans’ game performance.
Defense-o-meter
3/4 LaMarr Woodleys
The front seven dominated for a second straight week. It forced two fumbles and didn’t allow LeFevour to get comfortable in the pocket. The score dropped due to a few secondary lapses.
Carr-o-meter
2/4 Lloyd Carrs
Our buddy Lloyd wasn’t doing backflips following Saturday’s game, but he was excited to get young players in the game who gained “invaluable experience.” He’s also relieved to get through this stretch without major injuries.
Hypemeter
3/4 Student T-shirts
Probably a third of you left when the rain started pouring down. But those that stayed were champions, celebrating nature’s wet fury as only college students could. The result was a fun atmosphere for a pretty crappy game.
