COMPLETE THE CONVERSION

You don’t have to let previous setbacks and defeats define you. The 2005 Wolverines didn’t. In life, you have to make peace with your past failures. Cut yourself some slack. We all mess up and experience failure. Shake off your past failures and regain control of your life, one decision at a time. Your failures don’t define you. Successful people are always defined by how they overcome setbacks and push forward to triumph. Every great quarterback has a short memory of incompletions and interceptions, you too need to have a short memory of life’s hurdles and disappointments. Go Blue!

What do you need to do to make that game-winning throw in your life right now?

October 27, 1979: Michigan 27, Indiana 21

THE GAME WAS TIED AT 21. Lee Corso’s Indiana University Hoosiers had knotted the game with one minute to play in the final quarter. In 1979, there was no overtime rule, and a stalemate would have a negative impact on the University of Michigan team, which was 6–1 overall and 4–0 in conference play. The Wolverines took the ball and drove to the Indiana 45-yard line. They needed a miracle to win.
