UofM could go 2-11 rather than the likely 11-2 they will end up as long as that 2 was vs OSU and MSU and I'd be satisfied. Win or lost against OSU next weekend....Harbauh still needs to go. If you can't beat MSU and OSU on a regular bases as a Michigan coach you are a failure. Period. As a Michigan fan I'm used to losing bowl games so nothing left to play for except to beat OSU. Unlikely, I know but dare to dream. Unlike most of my MSU alumni friends, I root for Michigan when appropriate. I want the best team to represent the B1G. IMO, OSU is the best team in BIG, and has the best chance of representing B1G in CFP. If Michigan beats OSU, then I will root for Michigan, but I genuinely believe OSU has superior talent and coaching. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 blue is gonna come full throttle @ Stroud from the edge. Backups are spending more time w/the zone 6 guys this week. They also have a good rushing offense. It'll be a good ball game to watch that's for sure. Harb's presser today was typically Harb's. One word answers and looking dazed and confused.

Starts to play prevent too soon. Can't recruit a line to protect any of his past, present or future QBs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the flyover at White Out game a few years back. On field with mascots and captains...invited back in the locker room (no showers) after a victory to whoop it up with the team. After all that he can't summon the strength to give Franklin a 2nd, 3rd...15th chance. PSU will never have an elite level team with Franklin at the Helm according to his frequent texts to *****. I've started to pay attention to clock management and playing it safe once he has a lead the last few years. He (pilot fried) is spot on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 The current line is PSU by 1 1/2 over MSU. I’m surprised it’s not larger, especially after Sparty’s beat down last week. The best thing about MSU vs PSU is that the loser has the “reward” of NOT having to store, for another year, the ugliest rivalry trophy in all of college football. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete H Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I believe Ohio State really pushed hard for the Franklin extension, as I'm sure they will support Michigan keeping Jim at the helm as well. LOL 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I don't think OSU cares what they do in all honesty. I do know one thing and that's Ryan Day deserves a raise. Word on the street is the Bears are looking at him for their head coaching job. An extension is in order with a substantial pay raise cause he's not even close to what they're making. Talked to some formers today who were at the OSU senior tackle and they said they're ready to go and want to hang 100 on blue. Whether or not that happens remains to be seen. I'll be happy with the W cause games up there can always go either way. This year they're hungry so we'll see how the buck toothed weasels react. 😂 😇 On any given day applies! GO BUCKS!

DizRotus Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 It will be a surprise if Wolverines don’t give Buckeys a challenge. It will be an even bigger surprise if the could pull off an upset. Looking forward to watching the game. Later this afternoon I’ll be watching MSU vs PSU to see if Spartans have any fight left after being embarrassed by Buckeyes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a call last evening about a ticket but I'd be sitting with a bunch of blue legends and you know what that would be like. They already have THE game won so I declined but made a couple side bets. This IS their best shot at beating OSU in years and they know it. They can double up on our receivers and our running backs but someone will always be open when that happens. So there's that. Should be some smash mouth football and I'm glad I don't have a defib on my pacer! Relax Neil if you can. That's gonna be another battle to watch. Tons of battles everywhere today! Picked up 12 Heineken yesterday but think I'll wait til the games over and I'm calm enough to appreciate it! GO BUCKS! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
