OT: MSU and UM football

[503]

Hey Michigan fans...If "if" was a 5th we'd all be drunk

 

[lions2011]

we'll see in a week how it all plays out.

Wisconsin would do Sparty a favor by hanging a L on them this Saturday , we all know how Dantonio does in bowl games.

they'd get rolled in the Rose Bowl.

Either way my Ducks are gonna role whoever in the Rose Bowl. And I don't have a doubt in my mind about that. The best freshman in the country De'Anthany Thomas is good for at least 1 score and LMJ good for 150+ and 2 scores. Ducks win by 17+

Come bowl time id rather see great games then be a homer. Wisky/oregon is a better game.

 

[lions2011]

lol.....Sparty vs another SEC team.


OUTBACK BOWL
South Carolina (SEC No. 3) vs. Michigan State (Big Ten No. 3)
Jan. 2, 1 p.m. ET, ABC
At Tampa, Fla.
Comment: This might be the best coaching job for South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier, who dismissed quarterback Stephen Garcia at midseason and lost franchise running back Marcus Lattimore to a season-ending injury. Still, the Gamecocks are aiming for a program-best 11th victory. We expect Michigan State to fall in the Big Ten championship game. If the Capital One Bowl takes Nebraska, that leaves Michigan State available for its first trip to the Outback.

South carolina isnt even the 3rd best SEC team and they probably still roll sparty. LSU, Bama and Ark all better than them by far.

I mean it just would show the whole big ten is a fraud.. msu did whip up dem boys in ann arbor after all

We beat two teams that you beat.

Would have been nice if the game was @michigan. We played so much better at home this year.

 

[hankpav53]

wait do you mean the two teams that beat us you beat?

IF that's what you meant.. you had both teams at home.. whereas we played both on the road.. so that point is moot..

the ONLY 3 games that you can EQUALLY compare um and msu's performance were the at iowa, and at northwestern games (since both same opponents and BOTH on the road), and obviously the head to head

msu went 3-0.. u of m went 1-2

 

[hankpav53]

b/c like you said.. everybody plays better at home.. tough to win on the road

lmao how many home games do you want? they had EIGHT this year! 8!!!!!!! no one ever gets 8 lmao.

 

[wolverine304]

12 home games would be nice

 

[hankpav53]

12 home games would be nice

lolz

 

[hankpav53]

Hoke has the program back on the right path.. as does Dantonio obviously .. happy for both michigan universities

WOW! 8 out of 12 homes games, non conference wins against W Michigan, E Michigan, San Diego State and half you folks think they are worthy of a BCS game? Some people baffle me.

 

[Mitchrapp]

MSU had one thing to do, beat ND and they failed. Blame MSU not UM. You sound like MSU had the toughest schedule in the NCAA.

well there's another one that puts msu at 29 and um at 34... they're all bullspit

but let's get real.. msu had the tougher schedule.. dont look at these 'numbers' that these sites come up with

Youngstown, fla atl, and central.. equal to san diego state, eastern, and western..

Both had at iowa and at northwestern

MSU had at notre dame, at nebraska, and at ohio state..

UM had at illinois, and at msu..


You put the michigan ohio state game in columbus and that's another loss no doubt


Both had easy schedules but let's get real... MSU's was more difficult without a doubt.

 

[hankpav53]

Also.. didn't even have to play wisconsin.. who's obviously class of big ten ..
