Michigan State's memory loss

  • Stats C/ATT YDS AVG TD INT

    Cousins 10/18 120 6.7 0 1 (7pts)

    Robinson 11/26 200 7.7 1 2 (14pts)

    I don't think cousins fared any better? You? RTR!

  • Even their own Coach said the same thing.

    The reaction from fans and their players alike really illustrates where they are as a fanbase and team.

  • Cousins got injured and didn't play a full game, also he was a junior qb and Robinson is a senior.

    Robinson had two really good throws deep down the field so you have to tip your hat to him on that, but he looked bad on the short passes and mid range passes.

    At the end of the day my money is on Cousins to have a better career in the pros than Robinson.

    No one directly said that, but several MSU players said MSU's walk on QB (Tommy Vento or something like that) could have done better than Robinson that game against Bama. I am willing to bet if asked, the MSU players who called Robinson out would say said Cousins fared would have better.

    Did the OP mention anything about a career in the pros? confused

    Yeah, that was a hyperbole for the sake of taunting Robinson. Not that I support the Twitter smacktalk, but don't get so butthurt about it. The only purpose this thread serves is to remind people that MSU fared poorly against Bama two years ago. Not exactly a groundbreaking thread.

    I meant that the OP sounded really butthurt. Hence the thread.

  • I don't support the MSU players tweeting what they tweeted, but I've never seen a whole fanbase so emotionally upset about some 19 year olds mocking 21 year olds. Geez.

    Point taken on this thread, but there are other threads out on the interwebs with UM fans being really upset about this. It's weird.

    It's weird that we are angry because a rival team is bashing our star player? Lol.

    Don't act like MSU fans wouldn't get their panties in a wad if somebody starting bashing Leveon Bell just because he had a sub-par game.

    Note to you as a non-B10 fan:

    MSU's players and fans are very jealous of the attention that Michigan gets and they celebrate Michigan losing more than their own victories. MSU fans know they were smoked by Bama during their best season in recent memory, but they know the media/national audience does not expect more out of them than that so they are not too upset about getting blown out by Bama... and Michigan players were not tweeting about it for the same reason. Michigan fans and the media/nation expect more out of Michigan and that grinds Spartans deep down.

    MSU will get blown out a couple times this year (like they do each year) and they know they would not be able to hang with Bama, but they'll never admit it and they'll keep their attention focused on Michigan's stumbles instead.

    Essentially, this is the origin of the "little brother" comment seeping through.

    I didn't bother to read past the "very jealous" part...seemed rambling and non-sensical...I think MSU fans and players just get amused that they have absolutely dominated Robinson the last few years but UM fans think he is Jesus.

    Damn, that's some mighty fine fishing. You're already posting in midseason form. thumbsup

  • Both schools should be bowing down to the mighty Penn State, who played Bama better TWICE than either of us did once. What an awesome sample size. bow

    He's a returning starter, 2nd season in the 247 system. Improvement was inevitable.

    Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

  • I just don't get upset by 18-22 year old kido's. I also don't post things on twitter or where neon high top shoes or eat hot pockets for every dinner. Eventually you just grow up and accept the teens/college kids for what they are...

  • Wasn't some UM recruit basically threatening to shoot OSU fans this offseason on Twitter? Kids do stupid things.

    Pretty sure one of them lit a recruiting letter on fire and posted an instagram pick and Wolverine nation starting building a statue of the 17-year old high school junior in the middle of the diag. When your relevancy has slipped so far that you brag about recruiting victories and non-conference season imaginary awards, it's the little things that make being a fan worthwhile.

    Oh, and Bama kicked our ass. Two years ago. I look to it as a necessary evil for our coaching staffs development and growth. In some ways I am grateful of that beatdown, it was needed to get where we want to go.
