Even though my loyalties lie with the SEC (Especially UGA), watching Keith Jackson broadcast a Michigan-OSU game was always one of my best memories when it came to ABC College Football.
Did ABC air the Ohio State vs. Michigan game on November 22, 2013, yes? Was the game being played at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, Michigan, yes? May Keith Jackson rest in peace.
Cheers Cromulus. I meant to say "helm" which is how the boat is steered--again correct me if I'm wrong. We've ALL got something to learn in this life. Tressel's in control of the rivalry now--like Carr in the 90s when U-M dominated OSU. It's going to be interesting how RR takes over at U-M. This is a crossroads for U-M. A coaching change is a big deal. A new culture as well as an entire style change is happening in Ann Arbor. I can't wait for The Game in November. Good Luck U-M. GO BUCKEYES!
Upon hearing "The Victors" John Phillip Sousa once declared it the GREATEST college march ever written!... and i think he may know something or two about music...
it's not about the effort, its about how well they keep their composure. never in history has any one of these teams put up nothing less than everything into their effor. that's one of the reasons that this is the best rivalry in all of sports.
"As long as they stop expecting to win the Big Ten and beat Ohio State, they'll be fine." Hello. We're Michigan. Thats the standard we set. Thats always been the standard. I personally love RR. I see him as the second coming of Bo Schembechler.
@@geezydoesit6205 I actually went from loving RichRod to hating him like two games into the 2008 season. Times were different back then. Expectations were different. We had like a 25 year Bowl streak going. Last weekend could mark the time where we finally start crawling out of the darkness. Go Blue
Its Michigan-Ohio State week (today's November 18th), and this was the last time we beat the Buckeyes. Here's to a miracle happennig in Columbus this saturday with a Wolverines victory! Go Blue!
Yeah, I'll get to those. Right after I do the ones for 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1993, 1995, 1996, 1999, and 2000. (I've already done the 1997 one). Have somebody older than 12 explain to you what that means.
Agreed. We had to settle with Lydell Ross, who was a backup at best. I think Shitkicker was there too. Supposed to be Clarett 02-04 and Pittman 05-06 then Beanie 07-08. Guess someone on that list had a different idea.
Hey, at least we have a good recruiting class this year. They will be waaay better than last year and you know it. One game isn't what im talking about, but 7 games or more.
Agreed. Michigan needed a complete change of perspective. I think RR will provide that. While I don't necessarily hold out much hope for 2008, once RR is settled I think things will change for the better. If not the 90s dominance of yesteryear, at least a return of parity to the rivalry. GO BLUE
1. 2005 Penn State Nittany Lions - equal to USC and Texas, could have played ball with them that year. 2. 2002 Ohio State Buckeyes - National championship caliber team 3. 2008 Penn State Nittany Lions - A great team that unfortunately lost in the Rose Bowl 4. 2002 Iowa Hawkeyes - A very underrated team that looked at times better than the team that took home the hardwood. Those are just my top 4, but you could switch around any of those and still have a good argument for it.
Hey Timbeau, I'm just speaking from the feeling I get from reading the sports writers at freep. I read one article that was pretty harsh on RR. It mostly had to do with the early days of his arrival and the departure of Mallett. According to Mallett's mom, RR didn't try too hard to make Mallett feel like he wanted him around..the assumption is that RR wanted Pryor and put all his eggs in that basket. I think Mallett was leaning on leaving anyway, with all the WRs going to the NFL...
I agree. He better win at least Big Ten title in the next 4 seasons. I predict he will win one next season, but he had better win one by no later then 2011. Because Michigan has such a rich history, the expectations are high. But I think RR can meet them, and will meet them. Go Blue!
Go bucks! cant wait for the game, should be a good one. im looking forward to experiencing the big house for the first time!! 2 premier programs year in, year out!
IMO the 2003 Wolverines were the fifth best Big Ten team of the 2000s so far, a really dynamite team. And they gave the national co-champions a game in the Rose Bowl.
Thats right, i did say RR is the next Bo. That means RR will have the Wolverines as dominant as they were in the 70's and late 80's. But unlike Bo, RR will win the majority of his bowl games, and at least one national championship, during his time with the Wolverines.
Also, based on what RR was able to do at west Virginia with a bunch of 2 and 3 star prospects (read: Pat White, Steve Slaton, Chris Henry, and Pacman Jones), I think he's going to mold all the incredible talent at Michigan into a dominant jauggernaut, just like Bo did in the 70's. I don't think Michigan will ever own Ohio State again like they did in the late 80's and 90's, but i DO think you're going to see the Wolverines return to their powerhouse form from the 70's.
Typical for an aOSU fan to want to ignore 10-2-1. Just because you weren't alive for most of them doesn't mean they didn't happen. I can't blame you, though - I'd want to forget history too if we choked as badly and as often as aOSU did then. Congratulations for getting *halfway* to matching Michigan's 10-2-1. And keep demonstrating that superior aOSU education.
And as far as this years game. Michigan's offense has weapons, Ohio States Defense is more expirienced then people want to believe. OSUs o-line is going to be really good and I believe Michigan lost 2 big defensive front guys (Branch and woodley). I would be surprised to see a blowout but would not be surprised to see Michigan win.
We will, RR brings the ingredients that beats Ohio State, speed, athletes, spread-option offense (with mobile quarterback of course). We will be back on top! Go Blue!
i thought you loved the spread offense? especially the spread option offense? Has Michigans shitty play changed your mind on the spread offense? (; As for Jackson and Foutes, i think they are the third best announcing team. 1. Nessler, Griese, McGuire 2. Brenneman and Davis
keith jackson has the voice of god.. seriously does it get any better than "he's heading for the coorRRRNNNERERRR! TOUCHDOWN! NO FLAGS...........WHOAAAA NELLLLLLLY!"
Dude thanx for the comment and I completely agree on the Michigan beating ohio state thing. I think Michigan will show up for every game and go 10 and 3
Everybody said that Florida had problems enacting the spread offense when Ue ban Meyer arrived. Yeah, that turned out to be accurate. Based on the way they played in the Capital One Bowl, Michigan should have no problem adjusting to RR's spread offense.
5 outta 6 boys for the bucks. gamble was the best corner in the nation his last two years there. besides the TD that made it 21-0, the rest was zone coverage. and the TD he scored the year before, Edwards shoved him to the ground. Most of his catches in 2002 were little dump offs over the middle and not against Gamble if you actually watched the game.
I beg to differ. Michigan doesn't have as much talent ON OFFENSE as they did last season, but overall, their talent level is as good as ever. If there was one thing Lloyd Carr did really well, it was recruiting. He brought in a boatload of 4 and 5 star prospects every year, and now RR inherits all that talent. Michigan is going to be great right off the bat under RR. Also, considering the way they ran the spread against Florida, michigan should ahve little trouble adapting to RR's system.
I'm glad we're getting the most dangerous type of offense to defend, but it will feel so weird not running a pro style offense like we have for the past 18 years. Man, college football has changed so much, that ABC music isn't as good as it used to be, my favorite commentor is retired (Keith Jackson), and the Big 10 isn't nearly as good as it always was. And the Bo era is officially over :(. Man oh man, RR better win a national championship for us.
Gotta love and miss braylon, but you gotta miss perry also one of michigans greatest and hard workin running backs, what did he have like 52 carries against state that one year.
Man, Keith Jackson and Dan Fouts was probably the best combination of commentors ever, along with that great ABC music! God I miss those days, now it's just spread offense, I like the spread, but give me a break, everybody runs it now, it's not that exciting of an offense anymore now that everybody runs it! Go Blue!
@CTOWN72 you're right, our coach is a joke because he doesn't seem to have any urgency considering he is with the most storied program in college football history; the most wins and being around for over 120 years and still maintaining the highest winning percentage for that long.Tressel won't be around for 20 years and we are too good of a program to ever let a coach continue to stink up the place. We're the last of all the elite programs in over a 100 years to have a drop off. that's amazing.
Yeah, I never thought anybody could get away with out-Lloyding Lloyd (Paterno seems to try it every year, but 9-0 speaks for itself there), but Tressel basically shut down the offense once OSU went up 14-3, because he knew Michigan wasn't going to score again.
We will be able to replace Laurainitis and Freeman just like we did to Hawk and Carpenter. We get 3 out of our top 5 leading tacklers back next year, and our D-Line will be fine. They sure did whip your asses in the trenches last year.
Another reason Michigan won the game, Ohio State's defense was worn down at this point. Playing close games caught up with Ohio State. Having a below average MLB (Pagac was the starter in '03) also didn't help.
Hmmm...THE GAME this Novemeber will be a BATTLE. Senior Day @ Michigan. Ohio State playing for a chance to redeem themselves in last year's N.Championship. Wow! Stakes are HIGH! But they always are! The greatest rivalry in College Football! Go BUCKS!---1995 OSU Alumnus writing from South Korea.
You all would be wise to read a book entitled The Scar of Seven, it has to do with much of the drought that Tressel operated upon Michigan Football, after this day.
Don't worry. If Michigan focuses on the basics of the game (covering receivers (damn it Trent!), catching the fucking ball) and puts in a QB who has their shit together, I can't see why we can't have a winning season next year.
Yeah, he sure looks classic with that solid blue hat and maize M, as opposed to RichRod and the Adidas jerseys. Oh well, I shouldn't complain, RichRod is good for the program.
@redwingsmike3718 try being a program that's played for over a 120 years still maintains the highest winning percentage for that long. That's sick. National titles until recently were totally subjective. And Michigan has been able to control what they have, and thats winning more conference titles than anyone.
Ahhh...The Glory Years...seems like..a few thousand years ago, doesn't it? 2003. The team had a winning record. They had a coach who wasn't an idiot. He actually had a lot of class. There was a bowl game! They beat Ohio State! Ahhh...The Glory days...so long ago.
"The Victors,""Varsity," "I Want to Go Back to Michigan,""Ann Arbor Days," "Goddess of the Inland Seas," "Go Blue," "In College Days," "The New Friars Song," "Michigan Remember," "The Hymn," "Laudes atque Carmina,""I'll Ne'er Forget My College Days,""Memories of Michigan," "'Tis of Michigan We Sing," "A Toast to Michigan," "Bum Army," "Michigan Men," "The University," "Hoover Street Rag," And our alma mater, "The Yellow and Blue." And that's just some...
WOLVERINEBOSS : "whereas Michigan returns 10/11 starters on offense" well those 10 returning starters did fuckin good this past year what was there record?
@chucknorrisworshiper Six wins and you're bowl eligible. Besides, That wasn't BCS it was like Little Caesars Pizza Bowl or similar and any one can do that!
Sure, I agree with you. Patience is what Michigan will need. As long as they stop expecting to win the Big Ten and beat Ohio State, they'll be fine. They'll basically be like the rest of the Big Ten. Crap. Michigan won't have patience with RR because deep down they don't even like the guy. You're a Michigan fan, right? You probably already know that. GO BUCKS! 5 in a row come November.
"I dont see RR dominate like Bo did" I do. And BTW, i'm not saying that Michigan is going to own Ohio State now that RR is in town. I think that we are in for "10 year war II." (Hopefully Michigan will win it again) I think you're going to see Michigan and Ohio State going at it for the Big Ten title everyyear until at least 2015, just like it was in the 70's.
Hmmm....well, the 0-9 vs. SEC teams in bowls is unfortuately true. It's also true that the last two have been in the biggest bowl game of all. Even bigger than the Rose Bowl! Imagine that! Michigan can't claim that. I still respect Michigan's program, but the momentum has changed since Tressel's at the stern and OSU's again the top dog in the Big Ten.
The only input i have is that I remember when michigan had a better team in 2004 and it didnt matter, OSU had better teams in the nineties and it didnt matter. Talent only goes so far in this game. Remember Edwards had a first down in 2004 and he turned early and dropped an extremely easy pass to catch. Plus Henne and Hart really havent shown that they can win at the end of the year(OSU 3 times USC twice) so....
I think they are good players but havent shown they can win at the end of the year(Osu three times, USC twice) They just havent shown enough to finish off those types of games late in the year.
Based on Michigan's 31-7 victory over Western Mich., they will win AT LEAST seven games. I'm thinking Michigan will beat Notre Dame, or at least keep the game close. Penn St. and Ohio St. may also give Michigan problems. I'm picking Michigan to finish 9-3.
"do not comapre things that are not realted get ure facts str8" Carr was great from 1995-2000. But sicne then, he went 1-6 against Ohio State, suffered multiple 4 loss seasons, never won a Bowl game, and has teams that consitently underachieved.....especially on defense. RR's TRACK RECORD PROVES THAT HE MAXES OUT THE POTENTIAL OF HIS TEAM.....a trait that Carr enver really had save the 1997 season
Sigh... I'm gonna miss Pasadena and the Roses... I miss the physical style of play, I miss the deep passes, I miss the strong receivers, I miss the tough runs... Sigh... I miss MICHIGAN football... Let's beat OSU this weekend eh guys? Come on... GO BLUE!
"U of M won two bowl games not never won a bowl game" Sorry for the hyperbole, but a 4 game Bowl losing streak and losing 5 of 6 Bowl games over a lnog stretch is absolutely unnacceptable here at the number one CF program of all time
Look at the facts: we had an 8 game winning streak, crushed Notre Dame and won a thriller over Michigan State, we finished 18th in the nation when everybody else woud have finished unranked, and we ebat Florida in a Janurary Bowl game. Dissapointing season? Hell yes. A shitty season? Fuck no!
OSU has no chance this year,they aren't even ranked now,there's no jim tressel,you've got a freshman starting @ QB,the game is in Ann Arbor,Michigan has one of the best QB's in the NCAA,you just can't deny it but for the next few years this rivalry is going the other way,GO BLUE
I guess... lol haha, don't feel too sorry for us, take your time to gloat, but don't overdo it. We'll be back in time. The Game will be The Game once again. Will it be next year? Hopefully... I want to see more games like 2006 in the future. I almost wouldn't mind losing that game if it meant we were 1 and 2. That's what it's all about, a rivalry game like that. Anyways... Yeah, to the rivalry...
"wut I mean is that they will dominate the wolves in a whole look series wise for this year and couple years to come" Newsflash: Lloyd carr is gone. Carrw as our John Cooper, and he's gone. Good luck against Rich rodriguez coached teams
I just don't see the point in most cases (unless the announcers are completely unlistenable). As for the balance between teams, let's just say that I kicked that habit in later years... :)
Sorry, no. OSU needs five more wins to pay off the note Michigan's holding on them from the Cooper era. Granted, they're about halfway there, but they won't have Lloyd to kick around anymore.
Even though my loyalties lie with the SEC (Especially UGA), watching Keith Jackson broadcast a Michigan-OSU game was always one of my best memories when it came to ABC College Football.
He's away...and on his way...a foot race to the endzone...Touchdown! No flags.
The previous play was a td called back. I helped a man in a wheelchair stand up 2x!
Loved watching that game. I wish they'd put them on dvd for purchase. I'd get all of the 97 season!
Was there....ran on the field It was amazing. Please want it more Sat
Did ABC air the Ohio State vs. Michigan game on November 22, 2013, yes? Was the game being played at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, Michigan, yes? May Keith Jackson rest in peace.
Cheers Cromulus. I meant to say "helm" which is how the boat is steered--again correct me if I'm wrong. We've ALL got something to learn in this life. Tressel's in control of the rivalry now--like Carr in the 90s when U-M dominated OSU. It's going to be interesting how RR takes over at U-M. This is a crossroads for U-M.

"As long as they stop expecting to win the Big Ten and beat Ohio State, they'll be fine."
Hello. We're Michigan. Thats the standard we set. Thats always been the standard. I personally love RR. I see him as the second coming of Bo Schembechler.
This didn't age well lol. Go Blue.
@@geezydoesit6205 I actually went from loving RichRod to hating him like two games into the 2008 season. Times were different back then. Expectations were different. We had like a 25 year Bowl streak going. Last weekend could mark the time where we finally start crawling out of the darkness.
Go Blue
That was a great michigan team that year Navarre was an awesome qb and of course Chris Perry #23 great season that year! GO BLUE!!!

Have somebody older than 12 explain to you what that means.
Agreed. We had to settle with Lydell Ross, who was a backup at best. I think Shitkicker was there too.
Supposed to be Clarett 02-04 and Pittman 05-06 then Beanie 07-08.
Guess someone on that list had a different idea.
Great game, i remember running on the field after with the rest of the student section
Yeah, about that 'showing highlights of the other team' thing...
I corrected that bad habit in my more recent reels.
Hey, at least we have a good recruiting class this year. They will be waaay better than last year and you know it. One game isn't what im talking about, but 7 games or more.

@CTOWN72 Hows Maurice Clarett doing?
1. 2005 Penn State Nittany Lions - equal to USC and Texas, could have played ball with them that year.
2. 2002 Ohio State Buckeyes - National championship caliber team
3. 2008 Penn State Nittany Lions - A great team that unfortunately lost in the Rose Bowl
4. 2002 Iowa Hawkeyes - A very underrated team that looked at times better than the team that took home the hardwood.
Those are just my top 4, but you could switch around any of those and still have a good argument for it.

look at the star receiving power in this game. santonio holmes, braylon edwards, steve breaston. all are top receiving threats in the nfl currently
lol why is Tressel at the back of the ship in your analogy?
Go bucks! cant wait for the game, should be a good one. im looking forward to experiencing the big house for the first time!! 2 premier programs year in, year out!
Eight measure song that repeats the same phrase? Sounds like a great song to sing while you're drunk at a football game!
Go Blue!
What part of FIVE IN A ROW do you not understand?What part of BOHICA Here comes #6 do you not understand?
I wonder what Tressel's Wiccan satanic spell meant to him that day. He sure as Hell got the #7 out of me, and the Wolverines until his resignation.
IMO the 2003 Wolverines were the fifth best Big Ten team of the 2000s so far, a really dynamite team. And they gave the national co-champions a game in the Rose Bowl.
you know you were nervous at 28-21. and that was with lydell ross.
I was in a bus at the school across the street.
Thats right, i did say RR is the next Bo. That means RR will have the Wolverines as dominant as they were in the 70's and late 80's. But unlike Bo, RR will win the majority of his bowl games, and at least one national championship, during his time with the Wolverines.

Congratulations. You're halfway to matching M's domination of Cooper.
Tressel and meyer exceeded that now. It's okay, 9 years ago you wouldn't have known the misery you were about to go thru :)
Typical for an aOSU fan to want to ignore 10-2-1. Just because you weren't alive for most of them doesn't mean they didn't happen. I can't blame you, though - I'd want to forget history too if we choked as badly and as often as aOSU did then.
Congratulations for getting *halfway* to matching Michigan's 10-2-1. And keep demonstrating that superior aOSU education.
Never mind that that's an apples-and-oranges comparison; it says NOTHING about who was the better player in collee.
take me back to a better time lol. I was 6 during the 100th meeting. Now all Michigan vs Ohio State does is bring me pain ahahaha
And as far as this years game. Michigan's offense has weapons, Ohio States Defense is more expirienced then people want to believe. OSUs o-line is going to be really good and I believe Michigan lost 2 big defensive front guys (Branch and woodley).

Yea, how's Troy Smith doing?
This was the 100th game of the rivalry.
We will, RR brings the ingredients that beats Ohio State, speed, athletes, spread-option offense (with mobile quarterback of course). We will be back on top!
Go Blue!
that game was great. i hope we beat them this year at home.
it's too bad chris perry hasn't played much in the NFL -- he was easily one of the top 3 RB's we've ever had at michigan i think
i thought you loved the spread offense? especially the spread option offense? Has Michigans shitty play changed your mind on the spread offense? (;
As for Jackson and Foutes, i think they are the third best announcing team.
1. Nessler, Griese, McGuire
2. Brenneman and Davis

The spread can and will work. It's the defense that is terrible. We'll be fine once we get some defensive talent.
Games and wins like 👍 these make you miss and appreciate LLoyd Carr even more I know he was not perfect 👍 and Keith Jackson whoa Nellie is classic
Ahhh...The Glory Years...seems like..a few thousand years ago, doesn't it? 2003. The team had a winning record. They had a coach who wasn't an idiot. He actually had a lot of class. There was a bowl game! They beat Ohio State! Ahhh...The Glory days...so long ago.

WOLVERINEBOSS : "whereas Michigan returns 10/11 starters on offense"
well those 10 returning starters did fuckin good this past year
what was there record?
@chucknorrisworshiper
Six wins and you're bowl eligible. Besides, That wasn't BCS it was like Little Caesars Pizza Bowl or similar and any one can do that!
Sure, I agree with you. Patience is what Michigan will need. As long as they stop expecting to win the Big Ten and beat Ohio State, they'll be fine. They'll basically be like the rest of the Big Ten. Crap. Michigan won't have patience with RR because deep down they don't even like the guy. You're a Michigan fan, right? You probably already know that. GO BUCKS! 5 in a row come November.
"I dont see RR dominate like Bo did"
I do. And BTW, i'm not saying that Michigan is going to own Ohio State now that RR is in town. I think that we are in for "10 year war II." (Hopefully Michigan will win it again) I think you're going to see Michigan and Ohio State going at it for the Big Ten title everyyear until at least 2015, just like it was in the 70's.
Tough call wish you would have been right
no u can explain to me how rr lost in his openor game in michigan to freakin utah, no excuses
what makes you think that?
Hmmm....well, the 0-9 vs. SEC teams in bowls is unfortuately true. It's also true that the last two have been in the biggest bowl game of all. Even bigger than the Rose Bowl! Imagine that! Michigan can't claim that. I still respect Michigan's program, but the momentum has changed since Tressel's at the stern and OSU's again the top dog in the Big Ten.
The only input i have is that I remember when michigan had a better team in 2004 and it didnt matter, OSU had better teams in the nineties and it didnt matter. Talent only goes so far in this game. Remember Edwards had a first down in 2004 and he turned early and dropped an extremely easy pass to catch. Plus Henne and Hart really havent shown that they can win at the end of the year(OSU 3 times USC twice) so....
I think they are good players but havent shown they can win at the end of the year(Osu three times, USC twice) They just havent shown enough to finish off those types of games late in the year.
Based on Michigan's 31-7 victory over Western Mich., they will win AT LEAST seven games.
I'm thinking Michigan will beat Notre Dame, or at least keep the game close. Penn St. and Ohio St. may also give Michigan problems.
I'm picking Michigan to finish 9-3.
"do not comapre things that are not realted get ure facts str8"
Carr was great from 1995-2000. But sicne then, he went 1-6 against Ohio State, suffered multiple 4 loss seasons, never won a Bowl game, and has teams that consitently underachieved.....especially on defense. RR's TRACK RECORD PROVES THAT HE MAXES OUT THE POTENTIAL OF HIS TEAM.....a trait that Carr enver really had save the 1997 season
Sigh... I'm gonna miss Pasadena and the Roses... I miss the physical style of play, I miss the deep passes, I miss the strong receivers, I miss the tough runs... Sigh... I miss MICHIGAN football...
Let's beat OSU this weekend eh guys? Come on... GO BLUE!
@chucknorrisworshiper
we'll wait n see then.
"U of M won two bowl games not never won a bowl game"
Sorry for the hyperbole, but a 4 game Bowl losing streak and losing 5 of 6 Bowl games over a lnog stretch is absolutely unnacceptable here at the number one CF program of all time
Look at the facts:
we had an 8 game winning streak, crushed Notre Dame and won a thriller over Michigan State, we finished 18th in the nation when everybody else woud have finished unranked, and we ebat Florida in a Janurary Bowl game.
Dissapointing season? Hell yes. A shitty season? Fuck no!
@bouwadi3 I agree!!!! Signed A Huge Michigan Fan
i wish perry wasnt injured anymore
Congratulations, you're halfway to matching M's pwnage of Cooper. Come back in six years, IF aOSU wins five of them.
OSU has no chance this year,they aren't even ranked now,there's no jim tressel,you've got a freshman starting @ QB,the game is in Ann Arbor,Michigan has one of the best QB's in the NCAA,you just can't deny it but for the next few years this rivalry is going the other way,GO BLUE
I guess... lol haha, don't feel too sorry for us, take your time to gloat, but don't overdo it. We'll be back in time. The Game will be The Game once again. Will it be next year? Hopefully... I want to see more games like 2006 in the future. I almost wouldn't mind losing that game if it meant we were 1 and 2. That's what it's all about, a rivalry game like that. Anyways... Yeah, to the rivalry...
57-42-1 Michigan leads the overall series.
Go Blue!
"wut I mean is that they will dominate the wolves in a whole look series wise for this year and couple years to come"
Newsflash: Lloyd carr is gone. Carrw as our John Cooper, and he's gone. Good luck against Rich rodriguez coached teams
I just don't see the point in most cases (unless the announcers are completely unlistenable). As for the balance between teams, let's just say that I kicked that habit in later years... :)
JIM TRESEL IS LOOKING mad!!! go blue
@PoorManProduction
Now, your win against Ohio State is a forfeit game? Is that how desperation make you think?
Sorry, no. OSU needs five more wins to pay off the note Michigan's holding on them from the Cooper era.
Granted, they're about halfway there, but they won't have Lloyd to kick around anymore.
