If you would of made this about the Michigan basketball team and their shitty coach who got lucky, I'd of agreed.

Michigan football was a sound, fundamentally strong team, no luck on their part.

You better hope and pray Harbough jets to the NFL. That's the only way this scenario is possible.

So the three straight losses are due to Covid? Walk me through that logic.

They had a roster of good guys, but not good enough to leave early guys, which resulted in a roster loaded with numbers & experience.
They were a Covid bonus year one hit wonder.

So how did they make the playoffs in 2021 and 2022 and finish the season #3 in the polls both of those years when all the other teams still had their "good enough to leave early" guys around and before Michigan's players were on their extra year of eligibility?

You really started a thread and didn't mention the rampant cheating, coach being suspended for half the season, struggling to beat one of the worst Bama teams in the last 5+ years, and the rumors that their coach is bolting to the NFL? They have been really good for the last several seasons, and put it all together this year to win a championship, but they got there by stealing signs and beating up on low level Big 10 teams, only having to win 1-2 games a year against tougher opponents.

As an Ohio State fan - all I can do is shake my head - we finally figured out this year what we should have applied in 2021 - managing the roster is a one year process - not simply developing recruiting classes - that and mismanagement of staff which resulted in poor on field coaching decisions- we lost - we would have lost 8 out of 10 times to them this year…. We also didn’t understand the new football under the new clock rules … which also led to more poor decisions.

I’m glad we woke up and made some
Changes - but they won the Natti and they beat us legitimately this year… let’s move on and hope we smoke them but cmon man - we hadn’t adjusted to the new college game till this off season

Threads like this is why I love the fact Harbs has stomped on OSU three years straight.

Worst fans in the B1G.

By far.

Good news for you guys...looks like Harbaugh to the Chargers is happening. And he's taking Jesse Minter with him. That's a blow for Michigan

Good for them that they cashed in this year because the Tressel/Urban era is back.


Good for Michigan for winning one national title because OSU is about to replicate their eras of winning one national title?

Uh, okay?

This is sad and pathetic.

Delete your account.

Michigan owns Ohio State of late. Deal with it.

Geez and I thought LSU fans melting when Bama won a championship was bad.
