Morning Playbook – Michigan’s latest excuse for losing to Appalachian State?

Here is a story to keep an eye on, just in case it is true. One former Michigan football player allegedly admitted that about half of the team was stoned in 2007 for the season opener against Appalachian State. The unknown player was quoted to say some players on the team were trying to see how much they could beat the FCS program to open the season while high. Of course, Appalachian State won the game in one of the most stunning upsets of all time so the question here is whether or not this is a true story or if Michigan is still looking for excuses for one of the more embarrassing losses in recent college football memory.
