They aspect of our defense that got shredded yesterday was in the passing game. We've given up plenty of yards this year on the ground, but made up for that with creating TO's, largely by means of interception. We got none yesterday, and that is why our defense did not appear "special." As for Hart having a good game, he most certainly did. And he's a good back. But we've proven already not to be a great run defense in matchups with Garrett Wolfe, Selvin Young/Jamaal Charles, Tony Hunt, and in some other instances. Hart should praise Henne for playing a smart, efficient game yesterday, because he was the one who excelled, in my opinion.
Overall, I've got no beef with what he said. He's 0-3, along with Henne, after all. I remember how sour the 90's were!

I am just thankful to Mike Hart for giving us (though not needed) something something for the next game.
I am sure this D will remember that.

So... I guess he's also saying that his offense and -- HE -- isn't a special group or running back ?!?! We were special enough to beat them and HIM. I mean he is a great running back, but he wasn't great enough to win. Nor was his offensive squad. I'm confused... tOSU doesn't have a "special" defense, yet he lost. And he's a special player? I don't care what anyone says, he was and is a sore loser. He can't or won't blame his coaches, teammates, or any situation that is the ACTUAL reason for why they lost. He has to take a shot at our defense!! WHA?! I won't say that tOSU defense played a great game, but c'mon... numbers don't lie and the season stats prove our defense is special.

Where to begin? Ahhh,actually it's just not worth it. I had a lot of respect for him, especially as he is one hell of a runningback, but he just lost all of it after pulling that Matt Leinart [censored]. In short, [censored] on that turd.

I think Hart came off as a bit of a sore loser. But this is OSU-Michigan, if you weren't a bit sore after losing I'd question your commitment to your team. Yeah, the nice thing in sports is to credit your opponent for everything...whatever. If you go out there and give your all in the biggest rivalry in sports and lose it's going to hurt. So, while I may not like what Hart said, and may think he's a sore loser I don't respect him any less because of it. This rivalry was built on firey personalities, a desire to win, and a bit (maybe more than a bit) of animosity, Mike Hart is just carrying on those traditions.

i think some people need to be a little more careful with their verbage, saying someone is an idiot and calling them classless isnt exactly classy....
it was a pr move to get the rematch, it seems to be working with lots of hype in that direction...
the reality is that the defense want that special last night, um d was that special. we saw two teams push the ball up and down the field all day on each other...
mike hart played a heck of a game, michigan played a heck of a game. they did so in a hard fought, classy, respectful manner.

Michigan can in no way be considered a team that's got a mouth problem....surely nobody's suggesting there's a pattern.

How about last year when he said
'we are scum, we don't lose 3 games in one year'
and then proceeded to lose 5
