OK MSU - it's your turn for M&B criticism. Wins Cotton Bowl -- puts UM score on rings

*too
UM grad?
LOL I don't usually play skrool teechur on the internet. I just couldn't help myself.............THIS TIME ONLY!

Acceptable.

I have already proven you wrong though by stating the facts that over the 6 year period you mentioned yesterday that USC has more W's, more bowl W's & fewer losses. Of course I already mentioned those #'s to you & yet you still wanna say that both programs are equal at this time. Which is incorrect.

You didn't prove me wrong as I never said that Michigan had more W's, more bowl W's and fewer losses. I just said they were equally relevant. Relevancy and record are two different things.

Dude that was 4 coaches ago.

That doesn't matter though. Just like when Illinios upset Ohio State back in '07 or '08 is VERY relevant to what Ohio State does this year!

Uh...no. I predicted that one of them would be the best shot to upset OSU and end the streak. No where did I say they'd lose to all of them.

This is where you predicted Ohio State to lose to VT, Michigan State and Michigan:

"Yeah you have also "predicted" that Ohio State will lose to Penn State, Michigan State & meeeechegan"

As I said, I didn't predict OSU would lose to all of them. I clearly predicted a PSU win for OSU.

Yes that's true you predicted them to lose 2/3 of the games in question, along with VT. Just wanted it on the record. Which coming from someone with no dog in the fight is pretty unreasonable.

Predicting a Penn State W (which won't happen anyway) over Ohio State is much more reasonable than saying VT will upset the Buckeyes again. And let me tell you why...the 2015 Buckeyes are much better than the 2014 squad. Actually it's not even close.

It was totally unreasonable. In case you didn't catch on, I was doing it to be unreasonable because OSU fans were being unreasonable about Michigan (at least IMO). I even started off by saying, "Since OSU fans are being unreasonable in this thread:" -- which suggested the prediction I was about to make was going to be equally as unreasonable.

It wasn't meant as something I genuinely believe, rather, a worst case scenario like they were predicting for Michigan.

See my post above. It was meant to be unreasonable in the same way the OSU predictions of Mich were, IMO, unreasonable. Hence why I started that post off with, "Since OSU fans are being unreasonable in this thread:" I don't actually think OSU is losing all three games.

The way you have been conducting yourself it makes it comes off that you genuinely believe that's what will happen to Ohio State this year.

Only you are being completely more unreasonable when comparing the two situations. Ohio State fans predicting 6/7 wins isn't the same as you predicting 9 wins for Ohio State. You're being way more unreasonable IMO.

Post # 290, ericd7633 pretty much said what I was going to say. Although this is the 1st time you've actually said you don't really think they'll lose all those games. Not sure if I believe you though at this point.

Harris was the particular player's last name whose ring it was, not referring to the Harris poll.

It's still gheyer

Highly unlikely. USC only did so against Fresno State. Michigan is likely to improve more than USC over last year -- simply because Michigan has more room to improve. So I'd argue that it would remain highly unlikely this year as well.

You mean the Fresno State team that made a bowl which bowl was michigan in last year USC 59 - UM 3

I sense A great fear in USC coming from MnB can't blame him tho Michigan can't run with SC

Based on what then? or is this just off of your "eye" test?

I can't stop laughing long enough to reply to this

Are you sure MnB wasn't involved based on his coin flip statistical analysis.

I think he was.
