LOL @ teams from the B-one-G having the primary goal of getting to the Rose Bowl. That's why they only have 2 NC's as a conference in in 40 years, and one off those was shared because Michigan hid where? You guessed it, in the Rose Bowl.

The B-one-G wanted no part of the Bowl Alliance or Bowl Coalitions of the 90's that would make it mandatory for #1 & #2 to face off.

Which four? There isn't a single game on their schedule that Michigan can't win, most they will be favorites in. So where do you see them stumbling four times?

Meeechegan is middle of the road to mediocre at best this season.

No way Michigan wins their conference. Michigan fans still think they are the team of the past.

Michigan guys, stop drinking the Kool-Aid and start eating the pizza - because you're going to the

Little Caesar's Pizza Bowl! :lol:

The bad news is Northern Illinois is coming off an Orange Bowl loss.
The good news is Michigan can win in spite of being the underdog! :lol:

I hate myself by defending Michigan but they didn't "hide" anywhere. They beat a top 10 team in the best bowl in the country. Any team would have loved to be where Michigan was that year.

You really think Yost would've won all those titles if he actually had to play more than a few teams a year? Football wasn't widespread back then so he won a bunch of games against ragtag teams that were half-assed assembled just to put something on the field.

Meyer > any Michigan coach ever.

Like I said, keep sipping that kool-aid, it's going to make victory all that much sweeter.

Do you know the last time every was saying the M in Michigan stood for mediocre? 1997, remind me again, how'd that season turn out?

Trust me, I don't need Kool-aid to enjoy our victories over you guys, and I haven't for the majority of the last 12 years. Beer always makes things fun, though.

Now lets think back to the last time Michigan has been relevant in the NCG discussion. Tough to remember for me too.

Exhibit A

Like I said, it's why the B-one-G has sucked ballz for 40+ years.

LOL you only won that game cause Denard was out and our coaches are idiots for even thinking Russell could play QB. 3rd best in the division LOL WUT?

Scoreboard.

And I said at best. MSU very well might be better.

1. Nebraska
2. Northwestern
3. MSU
4. Michigan

Nebraska has the best offense in the conference. Plain and simple. No one has the collection of skill players depth on OL they have. Any semblance of a Defense come November and we will be headed to Indy.

LOL at playing in the Rose Bowl being more important than playing the highest ranked/best available team for the NC.

Congratulations to the Michigan fans on here for ignoring my post. It was trollish, made purely in jest and was not meant to discriminate against any person because of race, creed, sex, religion or national origin. Thank you and have a good day.

I think the people writing Ohio State off are in for a huge rude awakening.....especially michigan fans

This is a team that averaged 37 PPG in their first year in a new offense......and all of their skill players (not to mention 4 oline starters) are back plus they added some explosive freshmen....you really think they are not going to improve any?

I know. It's sad. Wisconsins sign they have up saying "the road to the rose bowl begins here" is just about the saddest most pathetic thing I've ever seen. Wonder if they'll paint over it when we go to a playoff.

Maybe so. Ohio is the only team close to what Nebraskas got. I give the edge to Nebraska. More proven playmakers and more experience across the board.

Ohio State's defense is what might end up biting them in the ass

The LBer depth is pretty non existent....even one injury could cause a big mess there

The secondary has talent but they had way too many breakdowns last year and really need tackle better this year

:laugh3: Nebraska wasn't up to Ohio States level last year, and they're clearly further behind this year.
