Robinson was flushed and flustered for much of the game as Michigan State's No. 1-ranked defense bullied a Wolverines offensive line that, more or less, had held its own this year.
Mark Snyder• The Detroit Free Press
Those calling to remove Denard Robinson as Michigan's starting quarterback have amnesia, are ill-informed or are simply shouting absurdity.

The first edition of the 2011 Bowl Championship Series standings were released Sunday, and the Michigan football team is at No. 18.
George Sipple • The Detroit Free Press

Terry Jacoby • Heritage Media
Brady Hoke has a big job, a big heart, and as we found out on Saturday, a big finger - which he pointed directly at himself as the one responsible for the loss at Michigan State.

The rookie coach's attitude is contagious, and his plan is already producing results

The win over the Cowboys must have energized Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, because he woke up extra early today to do his regularly scheduled interview with WEEI Radio's Dennis & Callahan Show. Brady was in the 6:15 a.m. slot, gushing pretty proudly about what it took to yank out a win in the final seconds.
BASKETBALL

Coach John Beilein looks to have the talent on the roster to make a title run in the Big Ten, but the question mark at point guard is a barrier.
RECRUITING

A week ago, Crete-Monee (Ill.) junior wide receiver Laquon Treadwell was still looking for his first offer. Sunday night he was sitting on two offers from two of the Midwest's most tradition-rich programs.

Concord (Calif.) De La Salle has been kind to Michigan in the past. Wide receiver Amani Toomer starred for the Wolverines from 1992 to 1995, and quarterback Matt Gutierrez played two years at Michigan, before injuries led him to transfer to Idaho State after losing the starting position to Chad Henne. The Wolverines have turned their attentions in 2013 back toward De La Salle, offering 6-2, 210-pound linebacker Michael Hutchings.

The Nittany Lions found another way to win.
