Woody once again dead on.

My initial look at our replay looked like Nix was guilty-new video brings doubt-I am sorry 4 getting too tough on NIx http://blogs.indystar.com/hoosiersinsider/2013/02/20/indiana-basketball-zeller-nix-you-make-the-call-was-it-self-inflicted/ …

Do you ever get tired of being wrong? or is it just like an old shore you're used too?

OU is a step down?

But reading Woody talk basketball is like watching two mentally challenged people try to play chess in the park. It's just so frustrating after a while you need to move the piece for them or just slap them both and walk away.

i sense and xx sighting coming

That's not what I said. I said DT coach to DL coach is a step down, which it is. I said OU is struggling to stay "elite", while Michigan is trending up. Most would agree.

Huh?

Now do we hear the Michigan was 4th in the rivals rankings and Oklahoma was 15th? Really?

We lost to Bama, ND, Nebraska (w/o Denard), you guys by 5, and we had SCar on the ropes in the bowl game.

While 8-5 is no way an acceptable season, you have to take into consideration what we had to deal with in 2012.

The way Hoke is recruiting, and how much better we're getting on D every year, yes, we're trending up. Please try and refute this.

So, it seems like an old bit, but you're hopes and dreams are on recruiting classes that you hope will step up the lack of quality of starters you have now. You have no solid proof they will, but you believe they will based on recruiting numbers. However, Michigan has had some great recruiting classes before right? Old bit, I know, somehow, these classes are better.

Who says you have to have a signature victory? You?

We played a top-10 SEC team close in a bowl to the point where we were one blown coverage away from winning the game. When you consider what happened the last time we played an SEC team in a bowl game, it's hard to say we aren't trending up. In addition, I consider our play against South Carolina this year to be more impressive than our win against VT last year. I don't think anyone will argue that the 2011 VT team was even close to as good as the 2012 SC team.

So, let me translate this:

No, we didn't have a signature victory. Maybe Northwestern on an end over end pass, or beating a 6-6 MSU team in the last second on a field goal and not scoring a touchdown on them. But we're trending up.

Oh, and last year when MSU and Georgia had an epic game, it meant nothing compared to Michigan VT. However, this year against USC, that game was epic.

Carry on, you guys are so full of yourselves.

Ok. We'll stay at 8-5 or worse for the rest of Hoke's tenure.
