    WHo played in the capital one bowl and who played in the rose bowl? You may have split the big ten title but you got the lower half....basically, since the big ten didnt have a legit way of determining the winner you backed into the split title...if the smaller portion of sharing the crown is what you guys strive for, then I apoligize for offending you. Probably better if you made the rose bowl....lord know alabama didnt take it easy on you guys!!!!

    I forgot to add, two big ten teams played in BCS games that year...explain how MSU missed out on that? I hope that legitimizes that "title" for you guys. You title was as legit as OSU's titles in '05 and '08, didnt deserve it but since the big ten didnt have a way to determine the true champ your name slipped into the record books.

    Is that why those guys are wearing championship rings? lol

    Whatever, we can win our division and have the fourth place team in our conference go to a bcs. We get it. Ticket sales and old blood. I hope it makes the lads hungrier. We need to do more. We don't have the prestige that a paterno brought to you guys. Oh wait, sorry bout that.

    and I'd rather win a division title than play in one of the worst rated BCS bowls shrug

    I like how you didn't have a rebuttal to my statement so you just attacked me and brought up BCS bowls. Typical.

    It's still a BCS Bowl, and yes Reggie Bush was still on the team and the fact that they didn't vacate the season doesn't change the fact that Reggie Bush got paid when we played them.

    rumor We have tried to explain how OOC games come into play, but MSU fans don't seem to understand. Could be since they have never had their team play in one, but honestly I don't know why they don't seem to understand. shrug

    They obviously don't strive for anything else since their recruiting has fallen back with Hoke, Meyer, and O Brien in the conference they don't care even though they can't even find a 2 * offensive lineman who wants to play for them. Seems like they embrace the return to 6-6. shrug

  • Attention cope: So Nebraska just gave Michigan the game last year, huh?

    It's a long read, and is full of some stupid jokes, but the analysis is top notch.

    [Ed-H: Bump. There, I did it. No more Urban Meyer.] So, yeah.    I got a little busy at work during the winter, and then recruiting magic was happening, and then I figured it was too late for this post.

    Oh I get it, I'm somehow responsible for a guy name after a character from slap shot, and I should somehow stop said idiot from posting crap on the Internet and if I can't all posters should get revenge by posting MSU will go 6-6 and that's all there is to it.

    lol.

    Ok. Whatever let's you feel good. Jebus, you are rabid. You go on big guy. Have at it.

    Btw, I'm a bit worried about you taking the RCMB. Seriously. And " my friends" will not be stopped because, em, well this is the innerweb, and I have no idea who the hell they are. You realize that right?

    What is your predicted record for MSU this year?

    12-0.

    Ive predicted that forever. If you can tell me what the weather is going to be like, whose injured and how the first three series go on October 20th, I'll try to be more accurate with the MSU/um game. Short of that, if I'm going to guess, I'm guessing we win. If im wrong you can bump it. Maybe it will get. You some promotion at work or something.

    I hope you're right. I've followed MSU for years. I've suffered seasons more than I've enjoyed them. In the last 40 years 20 times we've had seasons of five wins or less. We've had ten coaches in 36 years. Duffy and Biggy were a long time ago. I was lucky enough to be a guest coach with Dantonio for about five summers. He's a very serious man, good teacher and fairly single minded. Seems like he has the ship steady. You'll forgive some of us if we sometimes hold our breath going into the season. I've seen the wheels come off too often not to. It seems different this time but MSU as a program is still miles away.

    As much shit as UM fans give you about Dantonio (including me), he's a good coach. I don't like what he says sometimes, but he's a good coach. Also good at finding diamonds in the rough. Like Jerel Worthy, he was a 3* if I'm not mistaken. Even though I don't like him, I hope he continues to have success at MSU. The rivalry is better when both teams are good.

    Ive seen a lot of fans with the mentality that they want OSU undefeated going into the last game.

    I never understood that. I'd rather have Michigan and Wisconsin, the two teams i hate, winless all year.

    Coach Perles used to tell us that nothing good can come out of a Michigan win. I got what he meant. However, think about this, The teams you hate losing to you, then needing you to lose for them to pass you in the standings, and all year long you keep winning. It's a slow burn. Their fans are bitter, their team is scoreboard watching, their coaches are going crazy. More fun in my opinion, and frankly, if you just win, everything takes care of itself.

    And I don't understand that logic.

    What's better? A matchup between two top 10 teams, or a blowout win that everybody could predict the outcome of before the game?

    lol Wisconsin is a rival of MSU now? What happened to IU?

    Seriously though it would be nice if Delaney made them your guy’s crossover instead of IU. Their crossover is Minnesota right? Minnesota can play IU.

    It’s better for the rivalry when both teams are good. If not then you get a rivalry like Tulane and LSU where no once care’s because LSU destroys them.
