    UM Wins 34-10. Mark it down.

    I'll be celebrating in the south end-zone as I did in UM's last win over OSU. Damn it's been a long time.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Your going to run on to the field and celebrate in the end-zone if your team beats a 6-5 team that had several suspensions of key players and an interim coach?

    unfortunately, that's what it's come down to if you're a tsun fan--pretty sad, isn't it?

    Boy, OSU sure has fallen then. They stormed the field after beating a #15 team. Not long ago, that was expected. :cool:

    I will be shocked if we win. It really depends on what team shows up, but after the last 2 week...I see a losing one going into Ann Arbor.

    I'll be the first to admit it's been a tough year, but storming the field after beating a #15 team is a little different than beating an unranked, 6-5 team, don't ya' think? That being said, the excitement after 7 years of futility lends itself to storming the field, so have at it.....that is, IF you win ;)

    If the OSU players can get up for this game, I expect OSU to win 31-17. (how can you not, its UM right?) If they sleepwalk through the first half again they will going into halftime down, but I think they can still win it. I hope there are a few skirmishes in the opening drives to get everyone blood boiling.

    I would do the same thing if I were in their shoes. GTFO with that shit.

    I doubt fans storm the field. Doesn't happen often in AA. They do a good job of preventing it. ;)

    Just like victory's over THE OSU.

    But, if it does happen, the fans should storm the field...it's THE GAME, Webbie!!!

    I'll take Ohio State by a nose. I would never take a team will of studs lightly, regardless of the record in The Game. Ohio State has more talent and will come out with Wisconsin game-like fervor.

    I agree with you. Although Michigan has had a great year and OSU hasn't, I firmly believe OSU's roster is chalk full of a lot more pure talent than Michigan. The difference between the two teams this year has been coaching, IMO. Hoke and his staff have done wonders in coaching the weasels up this year. In no way do I think UM is a 10 win team, but give credit to the coaching for giving them a chance to reach that total. Hell, UM has a chance for 11 wins this year. I don't think anyone saw that coming...that's what a competent coaching staff can do for you.

    If OSU does come out with a lot of intensity from the get go and can make some plays early on both sides of the ball, this could be a good game. However, I don't trust this senior class nor the coaches to get this team focused and ready to go, even with it being Michigan week.

    As a side note: Hopefully Michigan doesn't waste their time watching film and game planning for the the tight end screen or anything from the pistol. Those are a couple things the OSU offense has had success with and they've mysteriously disappeared. I also expect the QB option to disappear this week since Miller had a nice TD run off it last week. I feel like Bollman really thinks in his sick mind that once a play has success, it cannot be used again for a long time.

    No way they come out flat like they did the past 3 weeks against Indiana, Purdue, & Penn State. That said their defense better tackle or it will be a long afternoon.

    UM- 34
    OSU- 23

    When Michigan wins this year, they'll actually be able to watch highlights on YouTube this time. YouTube wasn't around in 2003.;)

    Win now or tack on another 3000 days to the total. It will be a big day for all those second graders who have only heard tale of a Michigan victory.

    bucks win. With the number 1 rivarly in all of NCAA football, and with the amount of times OSU has won the past decade, why wouldn't they storm the field if they beat the bucks?

    I guess you didn't. You just said it's said that they would. But then say they should. :confused:
  • sleeper
    I expect Ohio State to win by at least 1 or 2 TDs. Michigan is terrible. They'd probably win the SEC East though along with the rest of the B1G.

    Yes, I did.

    However, I did say it was pretty sad that this is what it came down to, but that was in reference to beating a 6-5 team. Anyway, if the students want to storm the field, then let 'em--I know the OSU students would!!!

    Anyone have video of Manningham and Coleman going at it last night?
