Social media reacts to Oregon crushing the under matched Michigan Wolverines

Michigan fell to 5-4 on Saturday after losing to Oregon 38-17. The Wolverines had a valiant effort in the second half but the 28-10 halftime deficit proved to be too much. Between execution and questionable calls, the Wolverines are on the brink of being bowl-eligible.

The Wolverines entered the game without starters Jyaire Hill and Will Johnson and while Dillon Gabriel tore up the Michigan secondary in the first half, Michigan did clamp down some and played better. But playing against the top-ranked team proved to be too difficult.

Offensively, quarterback Davis Warren played well once again. Michigan remained turnover free but a late rally fell short after the Wolverines didn't convert in the red zone in the middle of the fourth.

Here are some of the top reactions following Michigan's loss.

Heading to the press conference and almost every fan is discussing that 4th down play call...#GoBlue

Michigan lost 38-17 to Oregon.

The Wolverines shot themselves in the foot far too often against the No. 1 team in the country. The Ducks outgained U-M in total yards, 470-264. pic.twitter.com/IPuvlcg4qL

Ballgame. Oregon 38, Michigan 17

at Indiana, vs. Northwestern, at Ohio State left. Need one more win to get to bowl eligibility

Coaching 100% lost Michigan the game today. Let the players down big time.

No I’m not expecting him to actually be fired. This is about accountability. This staff has completely mismanaged this QB room all year, has the worst offense in the big ten and is staring 6-6 in the face. https://t.co/2a3zuL8BwQ

#1 Oregon beats UM 38-17.
But Warren probably made the best passes of any UM QB this year, and the offense often looked decent.
5 penalties, some very dumb, and some curious play calls cost 'em. But if UM had played that well vs. Washington or ILL, think they would have won.

Michigan may have lost on the field but more wins on the recruiting trail could come soon. Just logged a pair of flip picks in favor of the Wolverines #GoBlue. https://t.co/hfo3L6hPRI pic.twitter.com/xFEogtq4S5

OREGON REMAINS UNDEFEATED 🔥

They are the first team to defeat Michigan and Ohio State in the same season since 2015 💪 pic.twitter.com/xgLsQaTykA

This isn’t the season many of us envisioned. Still, Michigan has improved over the last month. They fought hard and made it a competitive game against the #1 team in the country.

Have to continue that climb, because it gets no easier moving forward. Finish strong! #GoBlue

As someone who hates how quickly the vocal majority of fans blame coaching more than players, it cannot be overstated how objectively bad Michigan’s coaching staff was today.

Scheme, in-game decision making, situational play calling, managing timeouts, knowing rules, etc.

Oregon covers the spread with 20 seconds left instead of taking the knee. The world we live in.

There’s a depth issue at DB for Michigan. Very important they lockdown these recruits.
