Michigan vs Northwestern

[meowmix]

This thread is full of intelligence. Bitter much?

I'm sorry, but after reading some of these posts you'd think this was just after the Michigan-ND game from this season.

Now fire your hate comments at me. Ready. Set. GO!

Absolutely. Bad losses to bad teams sting. Especially when it's to a rival who is undeservedly ranked absurdly high, whose fanbase thinks they're the greatest team in the country, when in reality, they have a wildcat quarterback who essentially puts the team on his back for every offensive play. Part of me almost hopes scUM goes to a BCS bowl so I can watch them get pulverized by an SEC team...again.

This. I have happy dreams of Denard Trying to pull the crap he does on Eastern Michigan or our woeful secondary on 'Bama or LSU. He'd finish the game with like 6 picks and a broken femur.

After UM loses to little brother again this week, the reality of it all comes crashing down.

My biggest issue with UofM fans is that 95% of them are incredibly ignorant. 5 home games, only one of which was against a respectable team and an ugly win against Northwestern in their first test in 3 weeks and now they are acting like they are one of the best teams in the country...

BTW, haven't we gone over this before.

2010: started 5-0, finished 7-5
2009: started 4-0, finished 5-7

In what post did I brag about rankings? Don't care about them, and bowl games are glorified exhibition games. Of course, the 15 practices are a plus, but the game really is just an extra unless it's the Rose Bowl. Michigan had no business being in a new years day bowl last year.

I didn't mention rankings or bowl games either...

Well I wasn't really aiming that last post at you, just the numbers of people that have posted since last night. But I will say, I'm not one of these people who thinks Michigan is one of the best in the country. I'm VERY worried about that opener against alabama next season at Jerryworld, because I've been watching some of their games, and they're a machine. I don't they're going to beat LSU though, but they're still an elite club right now.

All I'm going to say about last nights win, is that if this was last year, that game would've been 42-38 or some ridiculous score.

We all knew Persa was going to cause some trouble for awhile. Anyone who thought Persa was going to be a non-factor was kidding themselves. Hell, I thought this was gonna be a closer game.
