Boy! Its so nice.

Sparty is quiet, even though they insist in hushed tones that they will still beat Michigan for the 4th time in a row, completely forgetting about every other opponent on the schedule. I told one that Eastern would kill Central later in the year showing that Michigan's OOC opponents are all better than MSU's. The best they have to hope for this weekend is do beat CMU the same way that Western just beat the Chips. MSU will have to beat CMU by 30 to outdo them.

OH* fans are really quiet. They are saying that Braxton is the better choice, but when I laugh and say that both of their QB's suck, they don't really have a response. Bauserman can't move the ball and Braxton turns it over.

Certainly, I'm not saying that the present situation means anything moving forward as to who is better, but it sure is nice to not hear them talking.
 
I had the pleasure of watching a couple bucknuts go into meltdown mode discussing last weekend while in an office yesterday. Best part -- after offering a polite and professional, Go Blue!, I went into their boss' office who is a client ....an office covered in MICHIGAN gear as he is a fellow Wolverine.

Our OOC schedule was not good besides playing ND @ ND. It's our B10 season schedule that sucks. UM's B10 schedule is a lot easier. Heck, they could be looking at 9 wins now that they beat ND. The B10 is pathetic this year with the exception of Wisky, who you guys do not play.

My tone is not hushed, I still think we beat UM. Not by much but playing at home is the key. If it was at UM, I would probably go with UM.

If the Big Ten is pathetic outside of Wisconsin then why are you worried about MSU's schedule? Certainly MSU is good enough to beat pathetic teams, right?

We could play Wisconsin.

You're right Jever, and I now most of you are not very optimistic this year, but looking at your schedule and the strength of the B10 it's looking better every week for you guys. I guess it's still a wait and see until B10 play starts but I think they stand a decent chance.
 
I guess you can hold out hope that MSU has graduated to the level where they can beat pathetic teams on the road. That would be nice for you guys, I guess.

Well, we have beat good and pathetic teams on the road for years, all I said is that it makes it a harder win when playing on the road, not hard to understand, I guess.

Right, home field! :05 ... :04 ... :03 .... :02 .... :01 ... :01 ... :01 ... :01 [Timeout!]
 
Well, there is the Spartan fan that is bragging about MSU's d holding ND to 275 yards compared to what the Michigan D gave up.

I say the same thing that he said last year, "Yards? Who cares about yards? Points is what matters. ND scored 31 points on both teams. Yards?!?"

Thing is, ND moved the football at will and scored when they wanted to. IF they had needed more points, they would've went right down the field and got them. They got a 3 score lead and went into turtle mode, because they know their offense has trouble holding onto the football and turnovers were the only way that MSU was going to have a chance to get back into that game.

Its OK, though, maybe they can beat CMU by more than Western did...

The time keeper was MSU's MVP.

Oh, so you're worried about having to go on the road against pathetic teams because you won't be able to cheat as effectively. Got it!

Right, cause UM has never got a home field call. Let me ask you this, Do you think the WMU game would have been called if UM was losing ? I'll be waiting.

No, they would have chosen to wait it out, just like Western would have done if they thought they had a shot at winning.
 
Western had no shot of coming back and their QB was getting killed.... Maybe we need that GIf again on the WMU QB getting planted in the turf...twice.... By a walk on...
