November 23, 20223 yr Ohio State has a slight edge in talent and a bigger edge in coaching. Throw in +7 for the home team. 50-degrees and a 40% chance of rain on Saturday, so weather isn't likely to be a factor. I'll miss my post-game celebration with my father-in-law this year. He was a hardcore Buckeye with a healthy respect and love for Texas and Longhorn fans because he's never been treated better anywhere than Austin in '05.

Ear to Ear. 😁 OSU LBs were legit that day though. Toughest three we'd seen in a while. Edited November 23, 20223 yr by Droopy Still rooting for Michigan
November 23, 20223 yr One thing Michigan had last year with Hutchinson and that defensive line was to put a lot of pressure on OSU just rushing 4 and dropping everyone else into coverage. They don't have that talent level this season and it's going to change the dynamic when OSU has the ball.
November 23, 20223 yr 22 hours ago, Helobious said: This game is going to be very ugly afterwards. Ohio state will rush the field if they win, and their trailer trash army will 100% try to inflict serious violence on the Michigan team. It could be a historically bad event that may end rushing the field for a long time and I’m not joking. This is all true except for the fact that it has already happened at least a couple of times in the past and no Xichigan player or coach was accosted or injured.

Yeah, the only way that happens is if Michigan moves to the SEC immediately.
November 23, 20223 yr Almost every fanbase is like 95% cool people you'd like to hang and knock back a few beers with, and 5% goons. Ohio State is the inverse. Go Blue!
November 23, 20223 yr 3 hours ago, Wally Fairway said: That, sir, is a very specific fantasy. Do you have an Iowa kink, or just the regular hate for OSU & UM? I am not afraid to admit that I have many kinks, but none are Iowa based. I have just gotten a kick all season long of how inept Iowa has been offensively yet here they are with a chance to win the west in the B1G and maybe really screw things up by winning the B1G. Hate might be a little strong but I certainly have no love for Michigan and Ohio State. Maybe I dislike Michigan a little less. I am one of those types that if Texas is not in the mix, then I root for maximum chaos. Unless Georgia loses to both Georgia Tech and LSU I think they are all abut assured of being in the playoff at this point. Hell, even if they lose both of those games they are probably still in. So I want Georgia to lose to LSU in the SEC title game, Iowa (or Illinois or Purdue) to beat Michigan in the B1G title game (because I want to see the mental gymnastics the committee would have to go through to put a 1 loss, non conference champion Michigan team in the playoff given their aggy-level weak non-conference schedule), Oregon to beat USC in the Pac-12 title game, and Texas to get into the Big XII title game and beat TCU. And, not that I think it would matter much, but if Clemson was to lose the ACC title game, that would be sweet. Although watching the committee trying to figure out what to do with Clemson if they do win the ACC would also be fun. College football is at its best when the craziness is at maximum.

November 23, 20223 yr I'm a Michigan alum and it's not particularly close. Shoe > Michigan stadium. We can rock sometimes, but not just about always like them. Stadium shape plays a role, too.

November 24, 20223 yr So The Game is on Fox at 11 am Saturday. Are you referring to Cal-Stanford or Harvard-Yale? What channel is Ohio St.-Michigan on?
November 24, 20223 yr Me. I don't want dorky ass Michigan in the playoffs. At least Ohio State can compete and win. Decent point. I guess arguably a more talented Michigan team was trounced by Georgia last year,34-11. I don’t think JJ McCarthy or Cade McNamara stand a chance again this year. Stroud could make things interesting at least
November 24, 20223 yr So if there is no natural disaster to cancel this event, then I hope the Buckeyes win because there are 100x more (obnoxious) Wolvey fans around mid-Michigan #teamTornado
November 24, 20223 yr Michigan against Illinois 3rd (true freshman) 4th (walk on) and 5th rbs played 3rd (true freshman) 4th and 5th TEs wr’s can’t separate. qb can’t throw down field. if we can get healthy maybe we win. GO BLUE!!!
November 24, 20223 yr I’m always going to pull for Michigan in this game first because I’ve never liked Ohio State, second because of my experience with their fans. Your experiences may have differed, but I hung out with some really nice Michigan fans at the Rose Bowl and there was at a single person in red and gray that didn’t act like or even look like an insufferable prick when I went to Columbus in ‘05 for that game, and that includes their women.
November 25, 20223 yr If you have an hour to kill, this is a pretty good little documentary. There’s a new documentary produced by Bally Sports that’s airing on FOX tonight at 8 PM ET but I don’t know if that’s a national broadcast. It’s not bad. Apparently it’s the first episode of a new series called “Rivals.” It’s good but this is better:

We have tvs. I am rooting for one team and one team only when it comes to the playoff and that is Michigan. Not because I like Michigan, but because they’re close enough to who we are that I can respect them. After that, fuck Ohio State, Georgia, USC, Alabama, TCU and Clemson in that order. This shit right here. Texas : Michigan :: Oklahoma : Ohio State. I don't get the "fuck both these teams" sentiment. I don't have great love for Michigan or anything - mostly neutral - but that's much more positive than my outlook on Ohio State. They are not on the same level. Go Blue. Also, the upthread post mentioning that Ohio State has a significant coaching advantage - not sure on that one.
November 26, 20223 yr Author Mine's extra damp. Hadta blend some gasoline into the diesel. ETA We're gonna win 34-23. Get up by 11 in the middle of the 3rd and ride it out to a win. Edited November 26, 20223 yr by Parliament
November 26, 20223 yr As a kid, I liked Michigan more than Ohio State because their uniforms were much cooler and their fight song was much better. As an adult, I like Michigan more because I attended a game in Columbus and those assholes make Tech fans seem civilized by comparison. Those beer can throwing tools can die in a couch fire. Also, the Michigan fans at the Rose Bowl were pretty cool and warned us about Columbus. I thought they were exaggerating — they weren’t — or that it was because they were rivals — it wasn’t.

November 26, 20223 yr I'd love Michigan to win today but I think Ohio State is going to destroy them. It feels like when Texas went into the OU game under Mack. Ohio State is always more comfortable and ready with something extra to win this game.

November 26, 20223 yr Author He's actually the guy who owns the Gap, Victoria's Secret, etc. Spoiler And bff's with Jeffrey Epstein.
November 26, 20223 yr Klatt on the set of the pre-game, the guy is so good at his job. You can learn at least one or two things every time he does color on a game. His insights / analysis are the best in the business.

November 26, 20223 yr Ohio state is a piece of shit school filled with piece of shit people in a piece of shit state. but they are gonna get up in that Michigan ass. No corum (or severely diminished one) means the UM qb is going to have to do QB things and I’m not sure he has the tools. 30-21 type score.

They’d better show it today. And it’s all-or-nothing for CJ Stroud. He can win the Heisman today or he could leave OSU without any gold pants and with an 0-2 record against TTUN. No pressure or anything.
November 26, 20223 yr Michigan offense doesn't look like it will be able to keep up in a high scoring game. And that was with Corum. I feel like they made a mistake on the QB choice. Fuck TOSU always though.
November 26, 20223 yr Fox was talking in context of "if Miyan Williams is healthy...."? Another RB hurt? Edited November 26, 20223 yr by Wally Pryor
