Slick Nick Sheridan

To the victor goes the spoils, look who was seen with #8 in Minneapolis after the game:

So let’s get down to it:
* Sheridan played great, not just good. I, like you, expected a train wreck today so give him a lot of credit.
* His final passing stats don’t do justice (18-30, 203 yards and 33 rushing). He played smart, he protected the ball, and actually threw a handful of very nice balls downfield, at least two of which were flat out dropped by the receivers.
* Give Sheridan half the credit, the rest to Scott Shafer and the defense for protecting the Little Brown Jug, which will now be held in the familiar confines of Schembechler Hall until November 2011. How ’bout dem apples!:
