"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.

"He just wants to live, and is willing to don an exoskeletal combat suit and fight robots to do so."

Growing up, my Dad would always tell us about the days of Bo Schembechler. I was, and am, a Michigan fan. I grew up in the Lloyd Carr era. I remember watching Charles Woodson's amazing interception against Michigan State, and the string of quality quarterbacks including Tom Brady. I had never made it to The Big House, so when Central Michigan opened their season there Neil and I figured, what better time to see and shoot a Michigan game?

To see The Big House in person was awesome. What I'm most looking forward to is at the end of the season when we return to cover the Ohio State/Michigan rivalry match, or known simply to many as "The Game."
