Sick of OSU fans and the media pumping this game year after year. Sick of OSU getting so much credit for beating this average mediocre team. Sick of this game getting dubbed "THEgame"

Let's take a close look at the Michigan Wolverines. Granted, a historic program but beyond that.....

Michigans last national title: 1997 - 22 years ago

Last time Michigan was in the title conversation:
2006 - 13 years ago (they dropped the ball)

Last time Michigan won the BIG10: 2004 - 15 years ago

Last time Michigan beat OSU: 2011 - 8 years ago

OHIO State has now defeated their so called "rivalry" in the so called "theGame" 19 out of the last 21 times!!!

OSU has hung a combined 118 points on Michigan the last 2 meetings!

Michigans bowl record for the past 13 years: 3-10!

Michigans bowl record vs the SEC in their last 5 attempts: 1-4

It absolutely disturbs me that OHIO State Fans thump their chests after beating this team every season. WHY are we supposed to be impressed??? Look at the stats. What makes you think that Michigan is an impressive win? What have they accomplished lately over the last decade and a half??? Don't worry I'll wait.....

Michigan is Mediocre, average at best, change my mind!

I agree. They will come back down to reality in the payoffs and/or the championship game.

You do realize that this is not a game, nut life 365 days a year.... There is a reason why they call it "the greatest rivalry in all of sports". You and I can't envision it because we aren't fans of either team and don't llive in either state but it is there.

Its damn near what LSU - Tulane became, a one sided former rivalry that turned into an auto win for the Tigers.

UMediocre is a joke but they still carved up that "complete" ohio state D in the first half allowing their "Heisman" hopeful Young Zero sacks, Zero tackles and Zero impact...

Complete team my arse

"The game" refers to one of the oldest rivalries in college football, with 136 games played, starting in 1875:
Harvard-Yale.

"The Big Game" refers to the Cal-Stanford rivalry.

To their credit, I seem to recall that Mich was
Able to hang with Appalachian St. for most
of the game a few years ago. So there’s that.

The nickname for the rivalry is “the game” I don’t know why that bothers you regardless of the record it’s one of the biggest rivalries in sports
