The Media Distorts Notre Dame/Michigan

[Red_Alert]

"A RIVALRY THAT GOES ALL THE WAY BACK TO 1887" they say.

FACTS

They've played just 40 times total since 1887.
That's just 40 times in 132 years.
92 of the 132 years they didn't even play.
They played just 6 times between 1887 and 1941. 6 times in 54 years.
They played just 2 times between 1942 and 1977. Twice in 35 years.

Good series yes, but stop trying to pass it off like they've played damn near every year.

To put that into perspective, Nebraska and Kansas have played 109 times since 1900.

They try to pass it off like it's Michigan/Ohio St who've played 115 times since 1897.

When it comes to long time series, I doubt Notre Dame/Michigan even ranks in the Top 50.

I bet that sounded better in your head.

Michigan isn't a top 3 rival of ND's.

No. Explains their losing efforts

 

[outofyourmind]

Seems like a lot more games, for sure.
But I think the names themselves are heavy weight, and can command prime time. I'll be watching.

Maybe Harbaugh shocks the world.

I know your state went Red, but I also know there’s a few snowflakes within your fan base.

Whatever, but what does it have to do with Michigan/Notre Dame?

You know.... The title and subject of the thread?

You're seemingly only entertaining yourself.

[tnapucco]

Right now they're both markedly better than what Nebbish is putting on the field.

Tradition schmadition...I'd rather watch that than have to suffer through 3 hours of Neb/Indiana.
