i was on the roof of the GM lordstown [ohio] plant listening with a hand held transistor radio. i could just make out WJR from 250 miles away....the next morning we watched the highlights on michigan replay. oh and my first daughter was born. 10-2-88.
Saw this game in Madison, the growd were cheering first downs for Wisconsin, they didn't have much to cheer about. There wasn't 20'000 people in the stands, we sat where we wanted.This game was Men vs boys!
The Badgers looked completely overmatched in this game during the pre-Barry Alvarez days. Were they in the group of teams in the Big Ten back then just to stay ahead of Northwestern?
Tony Boles was a beast! Man he was quick! Also, I could have ran through those holes (they were as big 4x4 truck) the OL created! haha!
Mark Messner was a beast in this game, they kept running away from him but to no avail.
Wow: My Younger Sister Was Born Almost 3 Months Before The Game (7-12-88)

@WolverineHistorian do you get these games from torrents?
@famguy218 Nope. VHS tapes and DVD's.
Do you have the 89 game?
The only thing that stopped Michigan's offense was the goal line passing beneath their feet.
was this game broadcasted by WPT
Yes
No. I'm looking for it but I haven't found anyone yet that has it.
Sad when Boles hurt his knee. He might have broken all the records.
Wisconsin ran the veer. They really slipped after Dave McClain passed away. But Alvarez brought them back.
GO BLUE!!!!
Bo looks very bored at the end.
