And we are back, folks, here on the Michigan Insider, on the Big 1050 WTCA, online at the big 1050.com.

Sam Webb, Mr. Irawine Tribe on the other side, joining us as he does every single Monday.

Bottom of the 8 o'clock hour, the mayor of Michigan Twitter, Scott Bell at S. Bell 021, joins us to reflect.

It's a victory, though, with much consternation in Michigan land.

Scott Bell, how are you this morning?

I'm doing well. Happy to be here, as always.

So, my friend, a lot of hand-wringing.

It is hand-wringing time.

These last two victories have brought lots of angst from Michigan fans because while they

have been victories, they have been victories with a lot of struggle, right?

Have not looked quite like we've wanted them to look. And that has brought forth a lot of

complaining from Michigan fans. So against that backdrop, Scott, I ask you for your thoughts and,

you know, obviously for you to share your impressions of the Michigan fan base and whether or not

you think anything short of, you know, beating Ohio State will appease them at this point?

Yeah, it's it's tough spot to be because in general, I feel like I kind of find myself

talking some people off-ledges more more often than not, and I'm a little more measured

in a lot of these situations. But at at the same time I get where there would be

frustration here I have frustration over some of the things I've seen and I think when it comes

down to it a lot of what you hear from the team is all of our goals are still in place we

we still have everything available at the table, everything to play

for. So when the team is sort of putting itself out there that, hey, yes, our goals are still

contend for the Big Ten, beat Ohio State, get into the CFP.
