LCCMOTW - Lloyd Carr Coaching Move of the Week. This award has its genesis in Lloyd's decision to utilize the Stupid Ass Punt Formation in the Wolverines' 2003 game against Iowa. In the two weeks prior to the Iowa game, Michigan had punts blocked in a loss to Oregon and a win over Indiana while employing the non-standard punt formation. The third time was obviously not the charm, as Michigan rolled out the formation again and had another punt blocked in a 30-27 loss to the Hawkeyes in Iowa City. I'm not even a Michigan fan, and that sequence led to me hurling a string of expletives at the TV.

What. The. Fuck. Way to give one up for the team, son.
