)I just (re-)watched much of the 2007 Ducks shellacking of Michigan at the Big House with Dixon at the helm on YouTube (readily available, along with condensed versions, under a "Oregon Michigan 2007" search). (Just breaks my heart to see just how terrific Dixon was as both a passer and a runner. I do think it's highly likely we would have seen both our first Heisman Trophy winner AND our first national championship had he stayed healthy.) I hadn't remembered how well Michigan moved the ball in the first half, accumulating over 300 yards. But the Ducks led 32-7 at the half, in part due to UM mistakes.
