Kind of hard to upset someone that you're always favored to win against, but that would be too logical.
I'm a Buckeye living in Michigan. Michigan fans are way worse, especially since most don't even know what Michigan's campus looks like.

That game was just painful to watch. Why are you having Brian Hoyer throw the ball 36 times? He isn't meant to throw the ball 36 times. He is a game manager. When he throws the ball only 20-25 times a game, he is successful. You don't see Ben Roethsliberger throwing the ball that many times for a reason.
Sparty dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides of the field. They ran the ball well all day long. Why not just run the ball and win? Hoyer can't get it done with his arm when he throws the ball a lot. He is supposed to just throw the ball a few times and not make mistakes.
Look, when you have 5 minutes left and are down by only 3, you can run the football. Run it for 3, run it for 3, convert a 3rd and 4. It's so simple, coaches in the 50s could do it. It's not that difficult, and with BC's incredibly soft and overrated run defense, they should have been able to do it.

Updated for accuracy. This season in the NFL, however, Toothlessberger has been throwing more than he usually does and is ( ) showing a better grasp of the position this year.

That would be too easy.....

By that point BC was sneaking 9 guys in the box and running the ball was going to be next to impossible. Where MSU [censored]ed up was in the 1st half when they had the ball deep in BC territory 2 times and failed to get anything due to turnovers......

Sure, whatever

Again: sure, whatever. You'd be surprised how much MSU fans actually act like a little brother, no matter how much they claim they don't want to be treated like one. There's a LOT more respect for Michigan coming from Columbus than from East Lansing.
