    the love affair between osu and msu disgusts me.

    Which fan base doesn't have a "weird thing" for their #1 rival? Alabama and Auburn sure have a weird thing for each other. OSU will key cars with Michigan license plates. Texas ATM literal changed conferences to stop getting beat by Texas all the time.

    Hatred is different than obsession. I hate tOSU, and MSU but I don't know random chit about those programs from the 70's and stuff.

    Nigel was talking about attendance from Michigan games from the 90's the other day to prove some ridiculous point. Just sad.

    Nigel is kind of like rain man. He knows a lot about some stuff, but is special needs.

    If that third team is a 'Bama or a USC, it wouldn't matter. We'd get passed on. The odds of us going 13-0 and 2 other teams going 13-0, with one of them being a team of comparable prestige but in a harder conference, is so unlikely that I simply am not going to worry about it.

    And if it was a Big East team or Virginia Tech? Would you not be upset?

    We are at an understanding now.

    My trolls were a direct result of your Appy state jaw, obviously that is a sore spot.

    Sorry for grouping you in with the sunshine blowers.

  • Gotta go with the conference.

    Unlike some B10 fans, I love the conference and the midwest. Just like the SEC fans love their conference and the the southeast! Granted im not going to be killing any trees or anything like that of my rival.

    I hate scUM but I always root for B10 in OOC and bowl games wherever they play. Yes I am kinda oldschool I guess. So what if the SEC chants sec over and over, they have won the NC the last 6 years! It is what it is.

    I know tOSU doesnt have much of anything to play for this season, but to me that could make them the most dangerous team in the B10. The chance to play spoiler to some key teams this year would be priceless. Especialy if scUM comes to the shoe undefeated.

    Now if UM loses then oh well!

    I am with you on that. I don't feel terrible if they lose but I hope they win because it most certainly does have an impact on your perception if you were to beat the team you play if they are having a bad year or a good year and also national perspective for the conference.

  • only a um fan would think they are so important but I guess that all you can rationalize after you lose to us for 4 soon to be 5 years in a row. What I cant ifgure out is why um ever scheduled the game to begin with. Either they are so broke they will sacrifice their football team for some cash, or thy arre so arrogant they acutally think they have a chance to stay in the game beyond the first quarter.

    YOu have aum team coming into a game against the defending national champions with new linesboth staff with players who have little experience. You QB could be in pieces before the end of the secodn quarter. do you think it is jsut chance that the tide are playing you? Saban has been angling for this game since he won the natinal championship. On of his best firend's is still Izzo and th folks he had problems iwth at MSU are long gone. he also hasnt forgotten how he ws treated when he played up in aa.The lack of repsect is something that auses Saban to have a long memory, whihc um will find out when they paly. I see it as pretty much man against the boys with the tide able to name their score. The only question is whether Robinson will make it through the game in one piece. If he doesnt you season is screwed. If you only lose it will be another week before your whole sseason is srewed. sorry.
    Now you can see wh you statment doesnt make any sense you always lose. It is no longer a big deal

    Would you care to place a bet that Michigan loses to a greater margin than Sparty did in the bowl game a few years back?

    I'm up for a sig bet just for the heck of it.

    I meant greater margin but I will do the sig bet if you agree.
    I fully expect to lose the game. Being a sport, how about I cut it to 17.5 points?
    I think it will be about 16 points so I am adding a 1.5 point difference in my favor but will be glad to do the bet at those terms.

    Nah, we can leave it at greater or equal to the margin.

  • I fully expect to lose said sig bet, but it's no fun to compromise that much. How about this, you say it'll be a 16 point game. I say it'll be a 24 point game. Who ever is closest without going over wins.

    Sounds good to me. We just need to work out the time frame then.
    Edit: I will also promise to a minimum post count since I am mostly a lurker.
