Now THAT is Embarrassing

You can't fire Lloyd Carr, he's been great for Michigan.

3 game losing streak as well

They'll be fine, unless they get 2 wins this year, I don't see why Michigan should fire Carr.

Lloyd Carr has one National Title, five Big-Ten titles (some splits), one Rose Bowl Victory and an Orange Bowl victory.

He's never finished worse than fourth in the Big-Ten and that was during his second year with the Wolverines. He has six 10-win seasons in 12 seasons. Only once during his tenure has his team not finished the season ranked in the Top 25.

This man's accomplishments are endless.... http://mgobl...ent_id=15329

I agree the loss is embarrassing, but I don't think he should be fired after the career he has had at Ann Arbor.

Bye Bye Lloyd Carr. The University is embarrassed, and unfortunately someone has to pay for it. That's just the way it goes.

Maybe Michigan should open next year in the big house against Mount Union. Then they can lose to a quality D3 team.

I'm still in shock. I can't believe it. I'm close to declaring the end of my fanship of Michigan, and I'm not just saying that. I'm headed to college soon anyway and unless they get a new coach or something, I can't take it anymore.

How humiliating!

You schedule preseason home games against Appalachian State for one reason- lookig good, running up the score and hitting the ground running in the new season.

You'd better be sure you're good enough to beat your preseason cupcake opponents!

As an alumnus, this was absolutely sickening.

I think that Carr was going to retire after this season anyway. He's in his 60's. He always said that he didn't want to be Joe Paterno. The nucleus of the current team is leaving after this season. It makes sense.

As far as whether Carr has been great or not for Michigan, I don't think that he really has. It's easy to look at his overall record and praise him. But, masked by those numbers are some pretty poor performances. Carr is known around the Big Ten as the coach that gets the least for the amount of talent he has at his disposal.

Basically, it comes down to the Michigan-Ohio State game. I'm not sure that the dynamic of that game can really be felt by a neutral. But, and I think the same is true for OSU, we would rather have Michigan go 9-3 and beat Ohio State than go 11-1 and lose that game. We always lose bowl games. That is almost a given. It is the Ohio State games that really get under the skin of the fans, and that is why Carr is feeling the heat.

Kirk Herbstreit and Brent Musburger repeatedly mispronounced "Appalachian" State during the Cal v. Tennessee game. You can pronounce the east coast mountain range however you would like, but the college located in Boone, North Carolina is pronounced "App a LATCH an State," not "App a LAY shun State." Impress your friends with the proper pronunciation.

wow, what an upset! There's goes Michigan's chance at a national title in the first week of College Football! -Kwass

Thanks Michigan...if not for today's upset, everyone might be talking about how Tennessee couldn't stop Grandma Moses from running up the gut on their toothless d-line.

Well that was incredibly embarrassing and the truth is we didnt even look like a top 25 team. I will never give up my fanship i mean do u think Tom Brady will stop telling people he went to Michigan just because they lost one game???? Yes this is incredibly embarrassing but those calling for Lloyd Carr's head remember what he's done for us. During the late 90's and early 00's Michigan was one of the toughest team to beat under Carr. He's won 76% percent of his games as head coach one national title, 5 conference titles. Oh and ever heard of a guy named Tom Brady? Yeah well Carr recruited him and started him for 3 years. I agree that Carr should probably go after this season I mean he is still living in the 90's with his coaching styles. But I mean Lloyd Carr has been great for Michigan as a whole unfortunately he seems to be running out. But Michigan fans shouldn't hate him sooooo much when hes done alot for our program.

I think we shouldn't keep saying how bad Mich. is, but look at how good App. State is.... heres to a very good and very well prepared team, congrats to App. State Mountaineers.

Is it as embarassing as the Yankees losing to a team with a payroll lower than A-rod's annual base salary? Rays take 2 of 3 in New York! Yeah!!!!

actually Brady played more than Henson buddy and even if ur right Michigan was very succesful in the Brady Henson days
