"Earmarked as a masterpiece, but it doesn't fully deliver on its promise."

Saturday was "The Game," the big rivalry between the University of Michigan and Ohio State University.

 Compared to the CMU game, the sidelines were packed full of the band, cheerleaders, other people and a countless other shooters.

 The atmosphere was intense. Loud. Colorful.

 The action was consistent and fast.

 The athleticism is was superb.

 The light was nice (for most of it.)

 There were hurdles and hard hits.

 And also a fight!

 But I'm not going to go on and on about it.

 It was fun to shoot.

 So here's an overload of images.

"The episodic story and minimal budget result in a small canvas over which these two huge characters dominate."

I haven't shot as much football as I did last year.

But with a big game coming up on Friday -- big enough to probably warrant its own blog post -- I figured I'd share some frames from the last two games I shot.

Enjoy!
