They should give Harbaugh 2 million extra in discretionary income to incentivize his players for bonus play pay and coach pay. This way, he can have more control over getting and keeping key positions
They woke the monster! I tell you what-you’re gonna be sorry you ever messed with us Ryan Day, this is just the one of three beatings that you took and we’re just gonna keep doing it -so please don’t leave Ohio. We need to be able to show you that you need to keep your mouth shut when it comes to Michigan. Here we go folks. This is our year --the national championship.
No matter what is said, Iowa has only beaten Michigan 15 times in 63 games over 123 years. However, Kirk Ferentz has beaten Michigan 7 of those times in his 24 years. Furthermore , he's done so with 2s and 3s mostly from a 250 mile radius. Dude is a great coach with how little he has. They have absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain so we better be on our toes for anything!
really wish Cade was still the qb for them. I haven't watched Iowa games this season, after his injury;has Cade been on the sideline or up in a booth during games?
@@BowensBlvd I've seen a few sideline shots and he's been there with headset at least one time. I usually doze off, for obvious reasons, when Iowa is playing on network TV which isn't often...they're painful to watch lol
The ONLY thing UM has to worry about is an injury. This game will be over after the first quarter. I have watched Iowa football. An utter debacle. That side of the BIG is a JV abomination.
Was the most important play of the game that kept the crowd and the team emotionally charged. I was in attendance at the Illinois game last season when Corum went down and I have never witnessed Michigan stadium completely quiet like when he went down so it was absolutely necessary to get the team to rally around each other and finish the job. Go Blue!
I will remember that moment for the rest of my life ! And I was only watching on the tv…I cant fathom what it was like at fhe stadium . As upset as I’m sure zinter was …I hope hearing the absolute roar as they were rolling him through the tunnel lifted his spirits when they scored
@@lulud7540 Obviously you’re an uninformed Michigan Wolverine hater my guess is you’re too ashamed to admit you’re an Ohio fan after three straight years of losses. President Santa Ono was prepared to offer Coach Jim Harbaugh a lengthy contract extension until this latest phony scandal emerged. I suggest if you can predict the future you do so to help yourself and stop wasting your time trolling the fans of the winningest program in the history of college football with 1001 victories. Oh and Coach Moore just beat Ohio! I believe Coach Moore would be a fine Head Coach at Michigan if it comes to that. Tune in Saturday night and watch us win a third consecutive Big Ten Championship. GO BLUE! 💙〽️🏈🇺🇸
Go Blue! What a game. It’s one thing to beat a bitter rival when they are down but beating them at the peak of their powers is quite an achievement. I’m really proud of the team and how tough they are. And here’s to hoping Ohio fans keep making excuses! It’s working great for us.
Iowa being in the conference championship shows how weak the Big 10 conference is. There's half-a-dozen teams in the PAC-12 that would EASILY beat Iowa. Even Washington State would give Iowa all they could handle. Another weak opponent for Michigan. Nothing new. In the meantime, Alabama must play Georgia.
You are speaking facts as A Michigan man that has lived and breathed The University of Michigan my entire life and being born and Raised in Columbus Ohio. This win has meant so much more than any other. Go Blue
I think this was the most significant win in the history of the rivalry. If Michigan loses, it's nonstop chatter about the last 2 years being fraudulent. It would have set us back to the stoneage. What. A. Game.
The touchdown after the injury to 65, Reminds me of the 47 yards touchdown pass JJ threw for his buddy .. This is a team of destiny I want them to hold that championship this year and finish the story
You squeaked out a win at home thanks to a gifted (virtual) pick six. We fixed our problems from last year except we have our worst QB in two decades. Win a playoff game for once and then maybe you can talk.

Thank you, Steve, for keeping this fan base informed and in tune. The last 6 weeks couldve have broke us, as well as the team. But your insight has given me perspective on the entire situation. Frankly, you kept me a fan of this great team when I was ready to just give up. The haters are still out there, but performance and time will heal all wounds. Go Blua and Go Gators!
Thankfully Iowa is another top 25 opponent on our schedule that will help solidify our strength of schedule. I'm predicting a 37-13 final. Close first half, then Wolverine comes out of hibernation. Go Blue 〽️. Beat the Hawkeyes
Iowa's offense looks a bit weak or questionable. Also, Iowa didn't have a strong schedule. I am guessing their defense is little over-rated. Michigan should dominate this game.
@@ashwinrebbapragada7626I would agree about defense being over rated if it was any other team ..except it’s Iowa. Their defense is ALWAYS legit . Take it to the bank . Even in their worst years they’re defense keeps them in just about every game . But I still think Michigan should win ..not easily but..convincingly
@@dustinschalk8825 Yeah it was really legit against the one sole good team they played all year in PSU when they lost 31-0. Michigan will have to implode for this game to even be close.
It was amazing being at the game. My second Osu game . Was at the 2017 game also. So glad they won this game. JJ was amazing . OC Moore was amazing and the td after the Zinter injury by Blake was special . It was so quite then Blake hits that hole ! The turnovers were the difference just like you said Steve. He was hit and they sealed the game with a Int by Rod Moore ! Come on Boys no let down Saturday against Iowa !
Sherrone Moore is not Michigan's coach nor should he be Michigan's coach. Even if you keep the bulk of the championship infrastructure, if Michigan is to win at this level than you do everything you can to retain Harbaugh. You take a great risk when you just take Harbaugh for granted and fall under the delusion that Moore will be as good. Michigan won because Harbaugh still leads this team.
Amazing how many Buckeye fans dont realize that Ryan Day changed the signs before this game and last years game. Also, can you imagine the despair at ESPN? ESPN, Ryan Day and Tony Petitti must be devastated Michigan won without Harbaugh, all that effort and coordination these past 2 months for nothing.
Ryan Day said he changed his signs, not Michigan fans. You guys that cling to a narrative that has been dead for weeks because you cannot take an L is just sad.@@kevinjohnston4923
oh lord, enough with the sign bs. I would have to imagine if big ten commissioner pulled another attempt at suspension the legal rectification would have to be in place after the agreement the Thursday before Maryland.
Hope we can keep this coaching staff together for another year (or more). This next team will need their leadership and guidance against what I have to believe will be the toughest schedule in the country. Go Blue 💙
You are dead wrong about JJ McCarthy. He is the best and most complete elite QB in this " Year of the QB." Barring an injury, he is already a high 1st round draft pick. He has the highest IQ, has a strong and accurate arm, is a great leader ,and rarely makes a mistake. He has 4.4 speed and can scramble for yards. JJ has the highest winning percentage of any QB in the last 25 years at: . 960 The next 4 in the top 5 ( Lawrence at .950; Burrows etc.) All won a NC, a Heisman , and or are starting in the NFL! McCarthy has a higher college winning percentage record than any of those college legends did .As a starter ,McCarthy is a mind boggling off the charts 24-1 ! Let that sink in. 24-1 and his only loss was by a slim 6 points. Case closed.
I completely agree with you. He’s the whole package. Don’t forget that he was a high school student when he was recruited by Harbaugh into Michigan program that’s never beaten Ohio State. Of note, JJ McCarthy was also recruited by Mike Yurcich at Ohio State as well. As a young high school student, it’s so easy to join the established team and just continue to win, but NOT for JJ. He chose the harder path. It shows maturity, how coachable he is, and most importantly, he has the ability to stay committed to his words. He, amongst other key players, are the face of a “student-led” football culture at Michigan. That’s priceless. We already know his exceptional athletic ability on the field, but all the off-field intangibles that’s required in a QB, he has them. He just has that friendly and approachable aura to him as well and you can see that effect has passed over to everyone in that locker room. I think if Harbaugh was to go off to a NFL team with #1 draft pick (fingers crossed he stays at Michigan for LIFE unless he goes to my Raiders lol), he’s picking this kid up with the first pick.
First off, love what you do Steve and GO BLUE! This team has something that I've never seen before. They fight for each other, they play for each other, they feed off each other. Here is another thing people don't understand about this team, this team is deep across the board. They can and will wear you out throwing things at you. That being said the game being suspenseful as it was, was a great game. So much like a Bo and Woody game. When Rick Leech had his run against ttds is when I became a fan. Living here in big 12 country (down the road from Ronnie Bell's high school) it's definitely a pride thing. It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!
Amazing game and sad result for me. Both teams played great michigan just didn’t make mistakes which won them the game. Very well coached. Sad that the game won’t mean as much anymore as it did growing up. We’ll be back next year. Go bucks!
GG Bucks. It was truly a dog fight til the very end. I was crapping my pants when OSU had the ball in our territory with under a minute left, knowing that Maserati Marv could end it for us on a single play from there!
There’s only one thing that I disagree with you Steve. JJ McCarthy is the whole package and I think he’s completely underrated. Don’t forget that he was a high school student when he was recruited by Harbaugh into Michigan program that’s never beaten Ohio State. Of note, JJ was also recruited by Mike Yurcich at Ohio State as well. As a young high school student, it’s so easy to join the established team and just continue to win, but NOT for JJ.

Mark, if i am not mistaken, OSU did a trick play, Halfback throw back to the QB. So, they did do some outside the box stuff. I think a huge thing is what Marvin Harrison said. He said he never has seen coverage like Michigan gave them.
This game was epic. Born on third base Day has Buck Nuts pulling their hairs out.....and Harbaugh took a dumpster fire he inherited to 3 straight B1G titles.
At the risk of sounding very cheesy, I am at an age where I no longer care about what my inner cynical mind thinks so here we go. The Team. A Team is made up of individuals, all of whom need to be melded to a specific goal. These people need to trust and love one another, much like a family. A team needs to not only have a center focus, but they need to also be laser focused. All of which is present here in the Team. A team can be all of these things and still not achieve their main goal, a championship. This team is yet to know, how much they understand this. That team knows all too well, for they have suffered for three long years no, the indignation from their arch enemy, what defeat looks and feels like. A talented team yet one of great folly, its own self love, conceit, cynicism and the worst trait, denial. They also have not been nearly as tough these past few years and it shows. When a team is manhandled and literally beaten up physically, what then is a team to do? The Team goes through much in any season, media, lies, conjecture, envy from opponents that are desperate to sling arrows and make much a do, about nothing. Does this break a team apart, surely it could. This Team is Galvanized. You have made it stronger, a facinating power to obtain especially so late in a season. A Team sees past the season, they see the rewards to come, can almost taste it. The enemy points fingers, cries and whales in jealousy and frustration. In conclusion, you know when you have the upper hand, the victory over the enemy when they refuse to even say your name. Darkness can not survive where there is light. Now the light shines abundantly upon...The Team. That darkness has been vanquished for another year. If The Team keeps the humility and the light, they will win forever. Where might this Team of Victory reside, in you and in me? Possibly, on occasion sure, but it especially resides in one place in particular. Up North! So then, as per usual, let us all sing aloud, Hail to the victors valiant, hail to the conquering hero's! Hail Hail, to MICHIGAN! TTUN! THE TEAM UP NORTH! (in the creepiest whisper full of anger, Say my Name!) MICHIGAN!
Some truly do. Anyone calling for Ryan Days head needs to have their fan card revoked. Is it not enough proof how bad people in the south wanted him at A&M? They want what we have so bad and peoppe just want to push a top 5 coach out the door. Iv been trying to talk my fellow fans off the ledge for 3 days.
2023 was a great win, in the face of the scrutiny, but there has to be some recency bias there. That 2021 victory, finally getting the monkey off the back, was epic. Good show, Steve... loved the breakdown vs Iowa. #GoBlue
You can tell the level of discipline at Michigan because right away the players were all looking toward the championship game. These guys are focused and you can see the relationship they have with one another and staff. Michigan is a well oiled machine hitting on all cylinders.
Jim Harbaugh has to stay. We cannot underestimate the Baltimore Ravens relationship and football knowledge the Harbaugh’s jointly bring to the program.
I am a big Michigan fan have been my whole life and I am so happy and excited that we have now done at 3 years in a row and there's no excuses that anybody can say but JJ has only one two against Ohio State not three in the reason I say that is because when we won in 2021 JJ was not the starter it was Cade McNamara what is the quarterback JJ was a freshman and was sitting the bench he is 2-0 against Ohio State but with that being sad at the end of this year he will be the first Michigan quarterback to bring a national championship to the wolverines since 97 with Tom Brady and greasy
Ohio State needs to improve at QB next year whether it be Devin Brown, Lincoln Kieinholz or Air Noland. It should not be McCord under any circumstances.
2021 for me, but that's more because I was there and the atmosphere with the snow was amazing. This year would be a close second because of everything going on. Insulting OSU and its fans has never felt better than it does right now.
Born on third base, lost third straight game to great Michigan wolverines and going to hire third PI firm soon... Oh wait need help call uncle Lou Holtz.
Let’s not forget the fact that in 2021 Steve said he had given up hope on Michigan and wasn’t going to watch the game. Fast forward 2 years later and this is where we are lol. It’s comical.
Im pausing at 24:01. If Josh Perry has such a problem, and hes Been VERY VOCAL, HE NEEDS HUSH AND TAKE HIS ASS TO THE WOODY. otherwise this isnt you anymore and these new players dont need to hear it. They need to feel it.
Ohio State fans are losing their mind with Ryan Day. The guy is 56-7. Only three losses to Michigan, Clemson once, Alabama once, Oregon once (reg season), and Georgia once. I hope they keep him. He is a near-elite head coach. Day needs to realize he needs to hire some assistant coaches who can develop their five-star-laden roster. This oversight might be Day's greatest weakness: The idiom cannot see the forest for the trees comes to mind. Day is too preoccupied with elite recruitment of talent and he seems unable to see the big picture. Michigan recruits three and four-star talent and develops them into five-star level talent over several years. It takes time, but it clearly works as evidenced by three regular-season losses to Michigan... I wouldn't complain if they fire Day but really? Who else would be able to handle that schizophrenic fan base for more than a few losses along the way?
Kinda bugs me how when Michigan is dominating the rivalry osu has to settle with a season so bad they still go 11-1 still having a chance in the playoffs and 10-2 along with winning the rose bowl to finish 11-2 while Michigan was just average to above average when osu was dominating and before my time of watching Michigan we were terrible with rod and hoke outside of one season
On one of his recent podcast, Mark Rogers said that he still believes that OSU is a slightly better football team than UM. He has had three football seasons to see that that isn't the case. Go figure.
It’s only cause osu on paper should be beating us like they have been the last 20 years before these 3 seasons cause their recruiting rankings are insane and Michigans are average yet we still whoop em
But YOU, Steve, PICKED OSU to win! PUBLIC APOLOGY or unsubscribe! Even logic said Wolverines were going to win this game at home without all the sign-stealing motivation going on! SHAME ON YOU, STEVE!
Everyone who voted for 2023 as their favorite win is suffering from recency bias. It’s definitely close but that 2021 win, I think a lot of ppl forget how incredible that win felt. That was my absolute favorite moment in sports all time. 2023 was bigger because if we’d lost everyone would instantly be saying we were only beating OSU because of “cheating”.
This one felt bigger for the narrative but 21 definitely carried more weight. That was the best offense in OSU history and Michigan simply ran them over in a game no one expected to see.
News Alert: Ohio governor Dewine has issued a medical emergency alert. The state of Ohio has issued a SUICIDE WATCH due to THE Ohio State University losing to UM for the 3rd year in a row. Dewine offered emotional support as buckeye fans work thru the 5 stages of grief, suggesting they share their feelings with a group hug. Good news though..only 366 days till the next meeting. Happy holidays! 😂😂😂😂
I'm sorry but any episode of Michigan Podcast after a win over Ohio State that doesn't start with Steve pouring blue kool-aid all over himself, is a failure.😂
As a Hawkeye fan I just want to say watch out. Watch out so you don’t fall asleep after the halftime score will be 45-0….wolverines. Congrats on the win Michigan…lol.
They haven’t played a good QB at least. Seriously, if you played any one of our other QBs for the past two decades you would have lost. It took a gift for you to squeak out a win at home. You guys are down this year. Last year was your year.
Michigan has yet to play in the big game. They have merely qualified to play in their league championship. If they win then they will qualify for the CFP. There is some tough sledding ahead before Michigan can get into the big game.
Osucks JR classmen were the number two recruiting class of 2021. Unlike 2021, there is no collection of talent in all of CFB too big for UM to run with.
@@gabeswitala2292 You may be right but that remains to be seen. Michigan's last three games were only won by one score and both the Ohio State coach and the Penn State coach's were widely criticized for their poor coaching.
@@KenAlbertson And without their HC might I add? If HCs didnt matter that much then why bother having them on the sideline at all? Why cant they jusy sit up in the box too? I'm not saying they are infallible or unbeatable. Just saying that in 21 against UGA they were out of their depth and plain out matched physically. That disparity no longer exists. Just the same as last year, for them to lose it would require a total team effort. I say UMs O is good for at least 35 against UGA. However UGA is the best offense UM would face all year long.
No, Michigan fans don't want to win all the time, we want the games to be competitive every year. We want a healthy rivalry, win or lose. Winning is great. I'm not going to lie, but its not everything.
Pay the man. Give the man his money. Hell with the NCAA and Paul Finebaum. Go Blue!!!
Finebaum is insufferable. If this scandal was happening at Bama he’d be on the frontlines defending Saban.
They should give Harbaugh 2 million extra in discretionary income to incentivize his players for bonus play pay and coach pay.
This way, he can have more control over getting and keeping key positions
@@Jazz-lifeLmao! That too me a second! 🤣🤣🤣

Hope we can keep this coaching staff together for another year (or more).
This next team will need their leadership and guidance against what I have to believe will be the toughest schedule in the country.
Go Blue 💙
The NCAA won’t allow them to stay another year.
One of
If we just get a slap on the wrist and use the transfer portal for a qb and maybe some oline and linebackers we could definitely be as good as 21
I’ve been waiting for this video since the Rod Moore put the turnover Buffs on 〽️〽️〽️〽️〽️
You are dead wrong about JJ McCarthy. He is the best and most complete elite QB in this
" Year of the QB." Barring an injury, he is already a high 1st round draft pick. He has the highest IQ, has a strong and accurate arm, is a great leader ,and rarely makes a mistake. He has 4.4 speed and can scramble for yards.
JJ has the highest winning percentage of any QB in the last 25 years at: . 960 The next 4 in the top 5 ( Lawrence at .950; Burrows etc.) All won a NC, a Heisman , and or are starting in the NFL! McCarthy has a higher college winning percentage record than any of those college legends did .As a starter ,McCarthy is a mind boggling off the charts 24-1 ! Let that sink in. 24-1 and his only loss was by a slim 6 points. Case closed.
I completely agree with you. He’s the whole package. Don’t forget that he was a high school student when he was recruited by Harbaugh into Michigan program that’s never beaten Ohio State. Of note, JJ McCarthy was also recruited by Mike Yurcich at Ohio State as well. As a young high school student, it’s so easy to join the established team and just continue to win, but NOT for JJ. He chose the harder path. It shows maturity, how coachable he is, and most importantly, he has the ability to stay committed to his words. He, amongst other key players, are the face of a “student-led” football culture at Michigan. That’s priceless. We already know his exceptional athletic ability on the field, but all the off-field intangibles that’s required in a QB, he has them. He just has that friendly and approachable aura to him as well and you can see that effect has passed over to everyone in that locker room. I think if Harbaugh was to go off to a NFL team with #1 draft pick (fingers crossed he stays at Michigan for LIFE unless he goes to my Raiders lol), he’s picking this kid up with the first pick.
First off, love what you do Steve and GO BLUE! This team has something that I've never seen before. They fight for each other, they play for each other, they feed off each other. Here is another thing people don't understand about this team, this team is deep across the board. They can and will wear you out throwing things at you. That being said the game being suspenseful as it was, was a great game. So much like a Bo and Woody game. When Rick Leech had his run against ttds is when I became a fan. Living here in big 12 country (down the road from Ronnie Bell's high school) it's definitely a pride thing. It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!
Amazing game and sad result for me. Both teams played great michigan just didn’t make mistakes which won them the game. Very well coached. Sad that the game won’t mean as much anymore as it did growing up. We’ll be back next year. Go bucks!
GG Bucks. It was truly a dog fight til the very end. I was crapping my pants when OSU had the ball in our territory with under a minute left, knowing that Maserati Marv could end it for us on a single play from there!
We're all "Go Blue" right now, Steve.
I like Mark. He is the most reasonable bucknut. Great show Steve and Go Blue! 👍
There’s only one thing that I disagree with you Steve. JJ McCarthy is the whole package and I think he’s completely underrated.

Only one thing to say: GO BLUE!!!
It feels so good to watch this, after The Game (I was THERE too! 😃🏈〽️🟡🔵)
Mark, if i am not mistaken, OSU did a trick play, Halfback throw back to the QB. So, they did do some outside the box stuff. I think a huge thing is what Marvin Harrison said. He said he never has seen coverage like Michigan gave them.
Michigan hit harder than osu
Love the show!!! GO BLUE!!
You have to add the Rod Moore interception in the beginning.
Will Johnson had the first interception
For all the young fans that think this is new. No, the rivalry is back to normal. #GoBlue
This game was epic. Born on third base Day has Buck Nuts pulling their hairs out.....and Harbaugh took a dumpster fire he inherited to 3 straight B1G titles.
Harbaugh cheated.
Great show!
At the risk of sounding very cheesy, I am at an age where I no longer care about what my inner cynical mind thinks so here we go.
The Team.
A Team is made up of individuals, all of whom need to be melded to a specific goal.
These people need to trust and love one another, much like a family.
A team needs to not only have a center focus, but they need to also be laser focused.
All of which is present here in the Team.
A team can be all of these things and still not achieve their main goal, a championship.
This team is yet to know, how much they understand this.
That team knows all too well, for they have suffered for three long years no, the indignation from their arch enemy, what defeat looks and feels like.
A talented team yet one of great folly, its own self love, conceit, cynicism and the worst trait, denial. They also have not been nearly as tough these past few years and it shows. When a team is manhandled and literally beaten up physically, what then is a team to do?
The Team goes through much in any season, media, lies, conjecture, envy from opponents that are desperate to sling arrows and make much a do, about nothing. Does this break a team apart, surely it could. This Team is Galvanized. You have made it stronger, a facinating power to obtain especially so late in a season.
A Team sees past the season, they see the rewards to come, can almost taste it. The enemy points fingers, cries and whales in jealousy and frustration.
In conclusion, you know when you have the upper hand, the victory over the enemy when they refuse to even say your name.
Darkness can not survive where there is light.
Now the light shines abundantly upon...The Team.
That darkness has been vanquished for another year. If The Team keeps the humility and the light, they will win forever.
Where might this Team of Victory reside, in you and in me? Possibly, on occasion sure, but it especially resides in one place in particular.
Up North!
So then, as per usual, let us all sing aloud, Hail to the victors valiant, hail to the conquering hero's! Hail Hail, to MICHIGAN!
TTUN!
THE TEAM UP NORTH! (in the creepiest whisper full of anger, Say my Name!)
MICHIGAN!
It's cope pandemonium in Columbus. They can't handle it 😂
And you still can’t even win a playoff game. Keep coping 🤭

@@mgoboskiwe will, and the win won’t have to be vacated!
You cannot bottle the culture of winning, it is
The Coach, The coach, The Coach.
Ohio State fans take “delusional” to another. It’s just glorious to watch.
Some truly do. Anyone calling for Ryan Days head needs to have their fan card revoked. Is it not enough proof how bad people in the south wanted him at A&M? They want what we have so bad and peoppe just want to push a top 5 coach out the door. Iv been trying to talk my fellow fans off the ledge for 3 days.
😂😂😂😂well said😂😂😂Gooooo Bluuuuuueeeeee Baby
2023 was a great win, in the face of the scrutiny, but there has to be some recency bias there. That 2021 victory, finally getting the monkey off the back, was epic. Good show, Steve... loved the breakdown vs Iowa. #GoBlue
I played my College Football in Michigan
I won my Golden Gloves Boxing in Iowa
DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE Iowa
Go Blue!
You can tell the level of discipline at Michigan because right away the players were all looking toward the championship game. These guys are focused and you can see the relationship they have with one another and staff. Michigan is a well oiled machine hitting on all cylinders.
HAIL!
Congrats Michigan!
I didn't get to answer your poll, but if I look at these games individually, this win in 2023 was the most satisfying....
GO BLUE!
First time I’ve teared up watching Michigan Podcast.
Jim Harbaugh has to stay. We cannot underestimate the Baltimore Ravens relationship and football knowledge the Harbaugh’s jointly bring to the program.
Just win / Just leave the B1G.
You sir have the best video opening intro
The best part is that bucknut fans will have to replay the game again and again to scour the crowd and sidelines for Harbaugh and Stallions.
😂😂😂
😂
Been waiting for Steve’s thoughts! 😂
GO BLUE BABY.
Not sure how can you say that this years window is more open than last year. That’s quite the take
Outstanding....
I am a big Michigan fan have been my whole life and I am so happy and excited that we have now done at 3 years in a row and there's no excuses that anybody can say but JJ has only one two against Ohio State not three in the reason I say that is because when we won in 2021 JJ was not the starter it was Cade McNamara what is the quarterback JJ was a freshman and was sitting the bench he is 2-0 against Ohio State but with that being sad at the end of this year he will be the first Michigan quarterback to bring a national championship to the wolverines since 97 with Tom Brady and greasy
Another great episode Steve 👍🏻
I thought it was an overreaction to fire Harbaugh in 2020. I knew he would turn it around.
Ohio State needs to improve at QB next year whether it be Devin Brown, Lincoln Kieinholz or Air Noland. It should not be McCord under any circumstances.
2021 for me, but that's more because I was there and the atmosphere with the snow was amazing. This year would be a close second because of everything going on. Insulting OSU and its fans has never felt better than it does right now.
Steve, I couldn't believe that you threw away $100 bucks, bro. Hail. Coach Sherrone Moore called an incredible game.
Born on third base, lost third straight game to great Michigan wolverines and going to hire third PI firm soon... Oh wait need help call uncle Lou Holtz.
39:06 Steve had to let one rip real quick 💩. You can hear the mute button quickly get clicked.
Let’s not forget the fact that in 2021 Steve said he had given up hope on Michigan and wasn’t going to watch the game. Fast forward 2 years later and this is where we are lol. It’s comical.
Im pausing at 24:01.
If Josh Perry has such a problem, and hes Been VERY VOCAL, HE NEEDS HUSH AND TAKE HIS ASS TO THE WOODY. otherwise this isnt you anymore and these new players dont need to hear it. They need to feel it.
Ohio State fans are losing their mind with Ryan Day. The guy is 56-7. Only three losses to Michigan, Clemson once, Alabama once, Oregon once (reg season), and Georgia once. I hope they keep him. He is a near-elite head coach. Day needs to realize he needs to hire some assistant coaches who can develop their five-star-laden roster. This oversight might be Day's greatest weakness: The idiom cannot see the forest for the trees comes to mind. Day is too preoccupied with elite recruitment of talent and he seems unable to see the big picture. Michigan recruits three and four-star talent and develops them into five-star level talent over several years. It takes time, but it clearly works as evidenced by three regular-season losses to Michigan... I wouldn't complain if they fire Day but really? Who else would be able to handle that schizophrenic fan base for more than a few losses along the way?
A very entitled fan base
We don’t want Day fired. Michigan had to resort to cheating to beat him. Michigan will be exposed in the playoffs yet again.
Kinda bugs me how when Michigan is dominating the rivalry osu has to settle with a season so bad they still go 11-1 still having a chance in the playoffs and 10-2 along with winning the rose bowl to finish 11-2 while Michigan was just average to above average when osu was dominating and before my time of watching Michigan we were terrible with rod and hoke outside of one season
Incredible how many OSU fans have taken time to come to this video and make excuses. I can’t stop laughing at these idiots 🤣🤣
They don't have anything else.
It's their sense of entitlement.
Can't accept it.😂
On one of his recent podcast, Mark Rogers said that he still believes that OSU is a slightly better football team than UM. He has had three football seasons to see that that isn't the case. Go figure.
It’s only cause osu on paper should be beating us like they have been the last 20 years before these 3 seasons cause their recruiting rankings are insane and Michigans are average yet we still whoop em
Then if your so much better…then if you lose in the playoffs, then your season is a paper Wolverine! You have to win it all. Go Bucks 😎
GO BLUE!!!!
If Michigan is the best team, then we shouldn't worry about who we go against. That makes us seem weak.
But YOU, Steve, PICKED OSU to win! PUBLIC APOLOGY or unsubscribe! Even logic said Wolverines were going to win this game at home without all the sign-stealing motivation going on! SHAME ON YOU, STEVE!
Everyone who voted for 2023 as their favorite win is suffering from recency bias. It’s definitely close but that 2021 win, I think a lot of ppl forget how incredible that win felt. That was my absolute favorite moment in sports all time. 2023 was bigger because if we’d lost everyone would instantly be saying we were only beating OSU because of “cheating”.
This one felt bigger for the narrative but 21 definitely carried more weight. That was the best offense in OSU history and Michigan simply ran them over in a game no one expected to see.
@@NicklausMiller hey come on man, it was snowing 😂
Michigan had 3 penalties for 34 yards - all defensive, I believe.
One was the penalty after Rod's INT for removing a helmet... so 2 penalties that mattered!
@@VictorValiant24Good point!
And another was that ridiculous phantom one on Mason G.
@@AFS67good point. Who remembers the 3rd?
I had never heard of what Michigan is doing with its NIL until about the 29:00 mark here. Is there a way to find out more about this?
Ryan Day leaving OSU would be a great decision for Michigan.

News Alert: Ohio governor Dewine has issued a medical emergency alert. The state of Ohio has issued a SUICIDE WATCH due to THE Ohio State University losing to UM for the 3rd year in a row.
Dewine offered emotional support as buckeye fans work thru the 5 stages of grief, suggesting they share their feelings with a group hug.
Good news though..only 366 days till the next meeting. Happy holidays! 😂😂😂😂
I'm sorry but any episode of Michigan Podcast after a win over Ohio State that doesn't start with Steve pouring blue kool-aid all over himself, is a failure.😂
That was a good one 😂
I usually skip the intro even tho it's great..... but after a Ohio State win.... I watched the whole thing like I never seen it before #GoBlue
As a Hawkeye fan I just want to say watch out. Watch out so you don’t fall asleep after the halftime score will be 45-0….wolverines. Congrats on the win Michigan…lol.
"Michigan still hasnt played anyone good"
-OSU fans
They haven’t played a good QB at least. Seriously, if you played any one of our other QBs for the past two decades you would have lost. It took a gift for you to squeak out a win at home. You guys are down this year. Last year was your year.
You guys beat us with Patterson, speight, peters, Okorn, ruddock, forcier, threet, and Sheridan. Don't tell me about having less than good QBs.
@@98593le I know Michigan is used to it but OSU isn’t. Our offense depends on a good passer more than most.
@@kevinjohnston4923
let me guess… you probably still think the hit at the end of the Georgia game was targeting too?
@@wcart0322 there was helmet to helmet contact that could have been avoided. D was weak last year though
The ohio state will be sitting at The home, this Saturday.
Michigan has yet to play in the big game. They have merely qualified to play in their league championship. If they win then they will qualify for the CFP. There is some tough sledding ahead before Michigan can get into the big game.
Iowa, tough sledding? I don’t think so.
Osucks JR classmen were the number two recruiting class of 2021. Unlike 2021, there is no collection of talent in all of CFB too big for UM to run with.
@@gabeswitala2292
You may be right but that remains to be seen. Michigan's last three games were only won by one score and both the Ohio State coach and the Penn State coach's were widely criticized for their poor coaching.
@@KenAlbertson And without their HC might I add? If HCs didnt matter that much then why bother having them on the sideline at all? Why cant they jusy sit up in the box too? I'm not saying they are infallible or unbeatable. Just saying that in 21 against UGA they were out of their depth and plain out matched physically. That disparity no longer exists. Just the same as last year, for them to lose it would require a total team effort.
I say UMs O is good for at least 35 against UGA. However UGA is the best offense UM would face all year long.
No, Michigan fans don't want to win all the time, we want the games to be competitive every year. We want a healthy rivalry, win or lose. Winning is great. I'm not going to lie, but its not everything.
