The Official Michigan State vs ][V][ichigan Game Thread

[b311j]

Overcast and temps in the 40s. Perfect football weather. The talking heads seem to all have State winning. Vegas spread has jumped up and down from 3.5 to 6 points this week. Back in the day I loved situations like this. Road underdog Michigan teams would always come into these games with a big chip on their shoulders. Unfortunately I have no idea which Michigan team will be in E Lansing today. But the flipside of that same coin is Sparty fans have no idea which Sparty team will show up.

Beautiful day for football. Have a great tailgate spot on the corner of Shaw and Red Cedar. Steaks and ribs grilling. Lots of good people, fans of both teams. And of course, more top shelf talent walking around than anywhere in the state, my lord.

GO GREEN!!!

I wonder what role the REFS will play? I hate games where the refs become intrusive. I'd expect a lot of physical play but don't want a bunch of PI calls or personal fouls at the end of plays. It would be a shame if flags determined anything (or the timekeeper, for at matter).

It is an ugly trophy

[biggunsbob]

Me and my wife are going to wrestle during the game so the game loser could be the WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!

I prefer a Michigan victory but it's close if you know what I mean

the only real effect they will have on the game is that whichever team loses will be the ones to say the refs cost them the game.

There's not many times where refs actually affect the outcome of a game. Every game will have a bad call or two in it, but for the most part, it balances out.

Man, if Iowa had any kind of offense, they might be really good. Wisconsin has 28 but Iowa's offense keeps setting them up in really good field position with turnovers and lack of movement. They've really shut down wisky's O.
