By the way, anyone hear from WolverineMike?

He's where every other Michigan fan is when things are tough--nowhere to be found. Don't worry--as soon as there's something for them to crow about again, they'll be back. You're not a card-carrying Michigan fan if you don't abide by the "Hide when things are bad, act like an arrogant jerk when things are good" approach.

He's reading this for the 56th time, trying to figure out the date on which The Chosen One will arrive:

In Big Ten Conference play, Ohio State leads the series 47–46–4 through the 2015 meeting. Michigan was a charter member of the Big Ten in 1896 before leaving the league after the 1906 football season. Ohio State began league play with the 1913 season, and Michigan returned for the 1917 season. The 1918 matchup between the two schools was the first between them with both as Big Ten members.

I read a little bit of the drivel on whatever and Main last night. They really think Urban is a cheater and a sleazeball. I recall something about no one can be that cheesy and how can these kids believe the drivel he is selling.....

It comes down to one thing Urban is a WINNER not a whiner....

Honest analysis on Go Blue Wolverine:

Michigan Football: Ohio State Exposed what we Should've Seen

Michigan football was not made to compete with these good up-tempo teams, and Ohio State reaffirmed that on Saturday.

Looking back on Michigan’s season, we definitely should have seen this coming. Maybe not a 42-13 helpless beating, but something close to it probably.

The Wolverines haven’t actually controlled a game since the first half of the season. I know you’re going to lobby for Rutgers, but I look at that win as a game that was handled, not controlled. I’m talking about running the ball, eating up clock, the good stuff. The stuff Michigan set out to do.

Michigan didn’t do it though after beating Northwestern 38-0 on Oct. 10.

The most comparable team to Ohio State is very obviously Indiana. The only difference between the two is that the Buckeyes feature a much better defense and a true dual-threat quarterback.

Remember how that IU game went? How did we not see the same thing coming from Ohio State? Except, you know, with a defense attached to the other side. The Hoosiers laid out step-by-step instructions on how to make Michigan’s once-impenetrable defense look like a group of crowd control officers at a Walmart on Black Friday. :rofl:
.

This 9-3 regular season mark is nothing to be mad about. Being mad about the individual losses is one thing, but to have nine wins with a shot at 10 is a thought only the most crazed fans had at the beginning of the season.

I’ll take it, but hindsight being 20-20, of course Ohio State was going to beat Michigan. Again.

I actually see a man who cares very deeply about this rivalry struggling to control an emotional release of pain. I see a man who cannot believe that, despite the glimmer of incredible defense, he and his staff seem to have made no progress at all toward that step up that he imagined as recently as yesterday morning. I see a man struggling to understand how to play smashmouth rock 'n roll, when he has instruments with no strings. I see a man feeling shame and embarrassment, who is too much of a gentleman to call out the reporters who are baiting him for soundbites as if he were wounded prey. I see a man in deep psychological pain trying to avoid answering questions that will reveal why the team he loves and coaches was not at all up to the challenge. I see a man in deep inward pain.


And I feel bad about myself and what it says about my inability to empathize with his pain, because deep down inside, I find that I really like it. :mock::mad1::spitfire::pissed3:

I really wanted the Buckeyes to punch out in there at the end, and for Urban to say it was for Matt Franz.

Even in person they pull off this trick like magicians- it was incredible how quickly they disappeared after the game.

I've been on a continuous high since yesterday, feels good boys. Fuck harbaugh and fuck mi[Mark May]gan

Yep. Like I said earlier in the week--I could live to be one million years old, and OSU could win every game between now and then, and I'd still be like a bull in a china shop if OSU were to win the next one in the series. Quite simply, winning in this rivalry--THE rivalry--will never, ever get old.
