Game Thread: #3 Michigan @ #2 The Ohio State University; ABC 12 EST

I'm of the opinion that it was a tossup call. If they didn't grant the first down the review never gets overturned. I will say people need to admit that Michigan was dominating this game and choked it away. Speight cost them more than those shit calls.

Agreed. I also thought Harbaugh should have gone for two in OT because his defense was gassed, but understand why he didn't.

Show me the pic of the ball over the yard marker. Or even the part of his body where the balk was over the yard marker.

Just in case you forgot...Ball above helmet under Michigan arm... First DOWN!!!!!!!!

Guy shouldn't have been on he field.

okay? neither should a whole bunch of other people, but even with that said, peppers grabbed the guy after the dude clearly put his hands up as if to show he didn't mean to bump into him (and that's all the guy did, bumped into him, he didn't throw a swing at him), and peppers grabs the guy like he's batman, then shoves him backwards via the face....not good. noooot good at all

Dude was highly emotional - he was wrong to act that way... but he deserves a pass. He played his ass off and the rest of the team let him down.

NO dude the QB let them down.

as a Buckeye fan, I absolutely agree with this. Wolverines had the Buckeyes dead-to-rights, I honestly thought they'd eventually go up by as many as 2-3 touchdowns at the end of the 3rd quarter. But....choking is a thing, and sometimes it happens to our favorite teams, as much as we don't like to face the ugly truth.

Either way, helluva battle between two of the best teams in the country.

I'm a Lions, Pistons, Tigers and Raiders fan. Sadly I'm used to it.

Ah now I know what happened. The side judge for the game is in the Ohio ref hall of fame.

This thread has put a smile on my face. I'm hoping Washington makes it back in the top four come Tuesday. If so, I want to thank Michigan for keeping one of the seats warm!

Literally nothing on that pic is over the line but his hand and maybe the crown of his helmet.

If anything, this may keep your ass out of it.

You understand that it doesn't have to fully cross the line right?

Nothing is touching he line. The ball is being held in his other hand at his chest which is a good 1-2 feet behind the line.

I don't disagree with most of what you said.

When it was 17-7, I thought UM had the game in hand but turnovers did them in. Not sure I would describe it as choking, though.

Great win for the Buckeyes. Tough loss for the Wolverines. Good luck in your bowl game.

Does the MI player who knocked an Iowa fan to the ground deserve a pass too? A classless act is a classless act whether in a win or a loss.

USC crushed Washington earlier this season.

Yeah, I know. Was just trying to be nice. Just because I give Peppers a pass, doesn't mean I think the NCAA should. Fines/penalties should hit for him and that dill hole head coach Jimmy Jam for whining like a @MAIZEandBLUE09 (bitch)

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Dude @MAIZEandBLUE09 stop being a little fucking girl. Do I think they got shitted on by the refs? Yes. That doesn't mean shit though. Nothing you can do will change this outcome. Michigan could have won handily but their QB is a beta pussy like you and decided to turn over the ball 3 times.
