Michigan is 18-5-2 against the spread in BIG games since this allegedly started.

I mean, someone has to win against the spread. Michigan is often the far more talented team so it makes sense that if they don’t call off the dogs that they win big.

Oh. You mean the year that Michigan bitched out of playing Ohio State? That year?

That was the best defense Ohio State saw all season and it looked like they were playing Rutgers. They didn't light up most of their Big Ten competition like that. Meanwhile, Georgia obliterated nearly every offense it saw all season (aside from the second half against LSU) including the absolute destruction of Tennessee's 50 ppg machine, and yet they had a bunch of guys running free in the secondary all night and didn't even come remotely close to getting a pass rush. So yeah, they played like shite.

Michigan seems to be laughably bad at covering their tracks. There are a lot of holes in that staffer's story that don't make any sense.

It’s almost like had Ohio State had elite NFL draft talent at almost every offensive position group that Georgia didn’t come close to collectively seeing during the regular season.

Just so I’m clear here.

You would have people believe that Michigan was able to stop CJ stroud two consecutive years in the second half but neither UGA, who has way more talent, nor NFL defenses who spend hundreds of hours studying qbs and it is their job to do so, can’t?

what I'm saying is that OSU knew about UM's "advantage" before last year's game in columbus and switched their signs, but still got their arse*s kicked 45-23. oh, and only scored 3 points after halftime

speaking of the NFL, UM has been running a ravens-like defensive Scheme since 2021, under former DC Mike Macdonald. He was an assistant for the Ravens for many years, then was the DC at UM for 2021, and now the DC for the Ravens. and his longtime friend, Jesse Minter, was also a Ravens assistant w/ him, and is now the DC at UM and has continued the Ravens scheme at UM for the past 2 years

(BTW, Minter interviewed for the Eagles DC job and was the runner up)

that's why we're much better on defense. we've had NFL minds and the same NFL type defense for 3 years now

UGA struggles with elite passing offenses, especially with elite WR’s. Look at what LSU did in the second half of the SEC title game. As much as UGA fans like to crow about garbage time and score board (score board is 100% accurate, we got smashed), they still had starters in and Nuss lit them up with passes deep to Boutte, Nabers, and Thomas.

---

yup

just like UGA couldn't defend Bama w/ a healthy jameson williams and metchie in the SECCG, the dawgs had a hard time defending a great passing offense in OSU. not complicated to understand

if Jameson doesn't get injured in the title game, and metchie wasn't injured in the SECCG, bama wins that natty against UGA in 2022

So does the All-22 not show what watching the game in person would show? Michigan wouldn’t be doing it if it didn’t provide an advantage

They had to literally knock MHJ out with a blow to the head to beat us.

and? what's your point?

i agree that UGA benefited by MHJ not finishing the game. my post was was basically agreeing w/ Oilfieldbiology, when he responded to Buckeye06 saying that UGA has a hard time defending elite passing offenses, even though they had historically great defenses in 2021 and 2022

i don't know why you buckeye fans are so sensitive and rattled

So you admit to cheating and even OSU knew it.

But it has zero bearing because you hired NFL guys which no one has tried before.

Brandon Walker & Mark Titus’ show talking about this is hilarious
