Michigan football coach Rich Rodriguez addressed a few topics at today's news conference:

• Rodriguez's biggest defensive frustration is that the defense often played two good snaps during Saturday's loss at Michigan State, then faltered on third down.
Yeah, we have seen that drill before too.  Nothing new to see here. 

• He was disappointed because most of the missed tackles came late in the game, possibly indicating fatigue.

Apparently, G-Rob's conditioning program is winning out over R-Rod's conditioning program.
