Looks like this season tuned out better than expected

[josh200612]

I was done after the ND game ready to fire Jimmy. I still have to see it to believe it for the OSU win. I need this win so bad for my life. PLEASE WIN SATURDAY! GO BLUE!!!!!

 

[Michchamp]

If we lose Saturday... you are the goat.

I was in doubt too, but it looks promising that they’ll beat the suckeyes. I learned a long time ago that I won’t let the game affect my daily life. The Game is cyclical and the pendulum is swinging back in our direction. Remember before Tressle, Michigan went 12-3 against Ohio? They have short memories. As does the media. Go Blue!

where are you getting 12-3 from?

Cooper was 2-10-1 against us (1988-2000). Earle Bruce was 5-4 it looks like, and of course his predecessor, Dr. Strangehayes, was 4-5-1 against Bo, losing the 10 Year War.

Going back beyond that is ancient history, I think.

We're still up in this series, 58-49-6, but goddamn, it sure has evened out a bit in the last couple decades.

Ok, I give you that, but from 85? they were 12-3-1 up until Tressel.

Those were good times. Wining a lot and I was living in Vegas!

 

[wlvrnstlr4life]

From 76' to 00' we dominated 17-7, prior to that you can pick any 20 to 10yr stretch where either team did really well. Its time to turn this around in our favor again. If we can pull this one out(I don't care how), we will win next year, also. And then the monkey will be on the other backside. We have to win this, or it was all for naught. We can still wind up a 10-3 squad faltering down the stretch.

How did I get turned wrong on the computer? Lol wtf

The pendulum is not swinging back in our direction until we win a god damn game against them. Hopefully that happens this Saturday, but I have no confidence that it will.

This season has been great, but winning The Game is still a I'll believe it when I see it situation.

 

[rumseyhouse77]

I never doubted Harbaugh. Besides, who else was out there that could do better? The feel of the program changed when Jim took over. God, I want this win on Saturday though! The current team has the best chance to win in a long time. The program needs it, The Game needs it, the B1G needs it, all of college football needs it! GO BLUE!

OSU has a lot more pain to endure before I consider the pendulum to have swung back.

like they need a RichRod-esque hire, losing seasons, NCAA sanctions, and a whole ton of misery and despair that lasts the better part of a decade.

The world has been too long bereft of O$U anguish. Losing to Michigan is its only source.

Saturday would be a nice start to that swing. I'm praying to Odin that it happens.

 

[Gulo Blue]

This season hasn't turned out yet. Better or worse. It's all on Saturday.

 

[tinselwolverine]

Yes and no.

After the Notre Dame loss, what are the percentages that 538 was saying that it would even get to this point?

538 is a great model for unbiased looks at how things are on paper. It has no idea what has value and makes a season better or worse.

Did you forget about the MAJOR sanctions Urban received earlier this year? My god man, that was 3 WHOLE games he was "suspended".

This game could be the end of their (Ohio) high point of the pendulum for a reversal in our direction. This pattern isn?t any different than any other pattern in all of nature. It will swing back and it?s time is NOW.

Harbaugh pulled a Harbaugh

I think Michigan forgot to get out of the way of the pendulum swinging back and it flattened them.
