Renaissance Acquisition Corp., Pompano BeachMark Seigel, 954-784-3031 Copyright Business Wire 2009. ) After a tough loss at Kinnick Stadium, The Michigan Wolverines stand at 4-2 with what seems like a lot of questions coming from the fans.Of course, there is the decision by Coach Rich Rodriguez to stay with Denard Robinson to provide what he called a spark.The vast majority of Wolverine Nation almost certainly strongly disagreed even before the end result occurred (validly).There are two sides to every coin though, and certainly the coaching staff believed Robinson gave them a shot to win, and also felt Forcier wasn't on his game as he had been. Maybe the "feel thing" Coach Rod was talking about was recognition of the mild concussion before it was diagnosed. Maybe Robinson completes the pass to Odoms.Maybe our kicker hits a game-winning field goal and Rodriguez looks like a genius. Lots of maybes and frustrating questions about what still seems like a questionable coaching to many, and a decision at a key moment in an important game. Now, at this point what we need to do is to keep things in perspective.

That loss may have been one of the mostembarrassing losses I have experienced as a fan, and that following Juice Williams setting records in the Big House for total offense.The Illinois game followed a great second half comeback victory over Wisconsin, that followed one of the worst offenses performances I have ever seen out of the Wolverines. They were abysmal against Wisconsin in the first half and really shouldn't have even had a chance to comeback.Michigan's other victory was over Miami of Ohio, which was actually a tough game over a really bad team. Michigan was a team with very little progress, success or identity at this time last season. They have better speed and talent on offense, way better quarterbacks and they are constantly working on correcting their defense. Greg Robinson appears to have it headed in a better direction even if slowly. They were definitely more physical in the trenches against Iowa than in previous games.Michigan was ahead frequently in 2008, and lost the lead in the second half.
