Prior to the game the Michigan announcers told about the death of George Parks and asked for a moment of silence. One hundred ten thousand people went totally quiet and many stood and removed their hats.
The Michigan band played "Fight UMass" in their pregame show.
During halftime the announcers again told about UMass's loss. The Michigan fans gave a great reception to the UMass Band.
After the game, many Michgan fans noticed our UMass gear and every one was quick to say "Great Game by UMass". A good number made it a point to express condolences about George.
Today was great football experience and a good part of that came from Michigan and Michigan fans. The Big House is special and today so were all the Michigan fans.
Thank you! From this UMass fan------ "Go Blue!"
