Hail! to the victors valiant...

worthless michigan trash....

haha

First off, don't be a dick. Second off, there's another thread that's kinda-sorta about this already. Third off, I am obligated by the fact that I live in Columbus to root for the Buckeyes. I am not obligated to be happy with the fans who torch couches, tip cars, and write letters to the editor blasting the team after it wins.

Well, at least he was nice enough to wait.

OK, well, go out in a nice open field and get hammered and do it there. The last thing I want is my hometown associated with rioters. It's bad enough my alma mater is associated with the sixth largest drunken party in the world...I think...

LOL. You're going to hate me tomorrow when I make all of the Buckeye fans here eat crow.

I'll have quite a day.

First I will be attending the IU-Purdue game (BOILER UP!) then I get to watch the Meeechigan-OSU game in HD.

At least you're on the good guys' side for IU-Purdue.

"What time is it?"

"About 3 o'clock."

"AND IU STILL SUCKS!"

Hah, Mirror Lake last night was great...

But seriously, we're going to kick Michigan's asses and beat them back to Ann Arbor whey they belong.

Yeah, you guys really should try harder. Party started several days ago, man!!

This call from the legendary Bob Ufer still pisses OSU fans off.

Woody went ballistic after this game and was in the ref's face.

This also pisses OSU fans off. The 1969 game is a proud moment for Meeechigan fans.

Nope, it's embarrassing to see cars burning on the street where I used to live. Indianola at 15th, for the record.

I barely got out of Columbus alive in 2002 after the U or M - OSU game. I was wearing an Anthony Thomas jersey and got out just as the riots were breaking out. I saw a lot of burning cars.

Rutgers FTW!!

Seriously one team has to blow out the other one to create a clear space for Rutgers to jump up to.

OSU!!! OSU!!!!


Much more interesting then Cincy's game against Rutgers. :)

Konichi wa!

Konichi wa!

sayonara!!

Rutgers Cincinati is going to be too close to comfort, I still wouldn't be too suprised if Rutgers ended the regular season with two losses. I'm just so used to them losing.

Being a mostly impartial fan, I would say 31-24 Ohio.

CNN announced that OSU's coach died. I'd say that's an advantage to Michigan. Personally, although it's sad that their coach died, I don't care about this game one way or the other. Here at UMaine, football is just something to pass the time until the heart of hockey season.

OSU's coach died!?!? :eek: Give me a source. Now. If Ohio loses I will be beyond pissed.

Um, if that's Bo Schembeckler, he was a former Michigan coach . . .

Sadly, yes.

Nope. I screwed that up.

Konichi wa!

Actually, that's konnichi wa... But staying on-topic.

I'm not sure which team will win. I'm pretty impartial, as I like both OSU and Michigan. Being a Pitt fan, I don't really have any favorites in the Big Ten. When I watch this game, I wan't it to be a hell of a fight, and I really don't care who wins... Although, I guess I do have a slight slant towards Ohio State, as I've seen Michigan referees and clock keepers cheat far too many times (remember that game against Penn State where they cheated to keep them from having a perfect season?).

And, being a Pitt fan, I realise that my team hasn't done so great this year. Poor Tyler Palko, he has absolutely no supporting cast...

Brings more of a "meh" doesn't it?

Bo is a freaking legend. I have had the privelege of meeting him and getting his autograph. He will be missed.

As a proud U of M student, I'll let you all guess which team I want to win. =P

Go Blue.

I have "Hail to the Victors" playing on continuous loop on my laptop. The thing is I'm in a Purdue dorm within sight of Ross-Ade Stadium.:eek:

I hope I survive the night.

As a proud U of M student, I'll let you all guess which team I want to win. =P

How are people in Ann Arbor dealing with the death of Bo?

I lived in Ann Arbor for 6 years and met Bo. I will miss him. What was even more amazing was that I met him during the National Championship season.

It's bad enough my alma mater is associated with the sixth largest drunken party in the world...I think...

Ohio U?

Dammit, I have to work tomorrow night at 4. I tried to get the game off for religious purposes, but they didn't buy it.

Anyway, I saw this commercial today and thought it summed things up quite nicely.

I like the new one better. A man and woman are in a car, on a blind date. The moment she mentions Michigan and says "Go Blue", he opens the door, jumps out, and yells "Go Buckeyes!"

Also, when he yells "Go Buckeyes" she squeals the tires as she leaves.

I was looking at the Toledo newspaper today and they had a pretty interesting article about the game. As most of you should know the Toledo War is likely what started the rivalry between the two schools and the two states.

Yeah, but really, Wisconsin got hosed as a result of the Toledo War. I wonder why they're not so bitter? :D

They also announced they're disbanding.

Yeah, sorta what I was expecting.

Yeah, sorta what I was expecting.

Also, to be fair, they were pretty classy about the whole thing.

They say their appearance Friday night at the Hate Michigan Rally will be their last gig, and vowed to donate all proceeds from the rally -- tickets are $8 and $10 -- to a charity of the Schembechler family's choice.

"Our group would like to extend our deepest sympathies and heartfelt prayers to the Schembechler family on their loss," said Bo Biafra, the group's lead singer, at an afternoon gathering at the 1,700-seat Newport Music Hall across from the OSU campus.

They also announced they're disbanding.

I doubt they'll 'disband' as much as they'll just change names.

Aye, that's true.

Well, before I go cry at the revelation that there'll be no more D.S., I'll have to post their MySpace. A few good songs on there...even Die-Hard Wolverines with a sense of humor should enjoy them...'Chad Henne' might be my favorite...

THE Ohio State University 42
Meeechigan 39.

:p :p :p :p :p

I'll stop short of gloating....OK, I won't.

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.........

The best two teams in the Land played tonight...I'm all about a re-match, but I doubt that the Powers-That-Be would allow that to happen...So Sad...:gundge:

The only team that had a chance to beat the Buckeyes couldn't do it....do we even need a National Championship Game ????

Sorry, I really am gloating....but isn't that better than rioting ??? :p :p

It's kind of funny to see all the predictions after the fact.

Speaking of predictions, I was wondering who Lee Corso picked for the game today. He picked both Texas and Iowa (ha!) over Ohio state, and I have a sneaking suspicion he picked Michigan today.

I'm sure there are no complaints to the results of last nights game? No? Good! :)

Best game in sports history best out come I had a OHio state party and afterwords we went chanting O-H....I-O at all the michigan fans i knew with in 2 miles from my house. How about a remach on January 8th I think the best two teams played yesterday and should play again. YEA OHIO STATE

O yea troy smith definintly heisman much better than brady quinn.

Ironically, the ohio lottery numbers saturday evening were the same as the score. 4-2-3-9.

Date
Pick 3 Pick 4
11/18/06 0 6 5 4 4 9 5 MIDDAY
11/18/06 3 0 5 4 2 3 9 EVENING

Michigan's still #2 in the BCS, so even if Florida and USC win out, it might be a rematch in the title game. A close win by the Buckeyes was seen as the only possible way for a rematch, since the Buckeyes had home-field advantage, said to be worth about three points...incidentally, the Buckeyes won by three points.

On the other hand, I can do a happy dance because my alma mater wrapped up their first bowl bid in 38 years this past weekend...

I'm sure there are no complaints to the results of last nights game? No? Good! :)

I'd really like to complain, but it really was just a damned good game. One the best I've seen in years, actually. As was said earlier, this game really should have been the national championship.

Besides, you Buckeyes still have quite a ways to go before you catch up to us in the overall series.

It was a good game. After those two fumbles, I was just waiting to see how OSU would beat themselves. Fortunately, they got their act back together and held on.

As far as the overall record, 57-40 is going to be hard to straighten out, but Jim Tressel looks like the coach to do it.

So it seems. He appears to have crawled into Lloyd Carr's head and built a house.

Most of that margin is from the dark ages of college football, though, when Michigan had an actual progam and Ohio State...well, didn't. Factor that out, and factor out the John Cooper era, and Ohio State pulls even and probably goes ahead.

Michigan won 13 of the first 15 games in the series (two games ended in ties.) For most of that time, Ohio State wasn't in the Big Ten. OSU got their first win over Michigan in 1919. I believe the series record is 57-40-6 for Michigan. To be fair, I will factor everything before 1918, the first year both teams were in the Big Ten, out. Michingan actually won in 1918, but taking away those first 12 wins and two ties, the series pulls to 45-40-4, or pretty close to even. At the rate Tressel's beating Michigan (5-1 against UM so far) the gap should be closed easily within 10 years. Assuming the Buckeyes win six of the next nine games, after 2015 it will be 48-46-4 since 1918 and 60-46-6 all-time.

If I were to take it further, John Cooper was 2-10-1 against Michigan; that combined with his difficulty winning bowl games was why he was run out of town. It's also a reason Tressel is hailed; he's 5-1 against Michigan and 4-1 in bowl games. Without Cooper's record, Michigan is only ahead 47-38-5, not an insurmountable margin.

That said, I wonder how long it will be for Lloyd Carr if he can't beat Ohio State.

I'm really not sure. He wasn't really outcoached in this game, his players were outplayed. However, if this trend continues they may start shopping around.

Anyway, as far as I'm concerned this game was the national championship. OSU or UM would thrash any other team so Glendale is going to be just a formality.

Really, the team wasn't outplayed by that much, either; they hung in there. Few teams can do that against Ohio State. Illinois came the closest, but even they played catch-up for the entire game. And frankly, if Carr can't learn to beat Ohio State some, then Michigan will look for someone better to coach the team, since losing to Ohio State year after year will become frustrating. As far as I know, no Michigan coach has continuously lost to Ohio State. Bo Schembechler and Gary Moeller did reasonably well against the Buckeyes, but they have no equivalent to John Cooper.

Anyway, as far as I'm concerned this game was the national championship. OSU or UM would thrash any other team so Glendale is going to be just a formality.

No kidding. Michigan's still #2 in the BCS for a reason. I look forward to a rematch.

The best two teams in college football played in Columbus on Saturday. I don't think anything the Trojans or Gators do will make them contenders, despite the BCS percentages that may evolve over the remaining games.

Hear Hear!
We beat the spread, it was a hellova game... Go Blue!

It was a hell of a game indeed. So good, we ought to do it twice. Go Bucks!

Like I saw one of the kids from OSU say, "If this was boxing, there would be a rematch". Next time without the fumbles, I hope.
