3. Thanks for the reminder. The game is over, but the memory lingers. . .
The Arrogant Asses (rabid fans of Michigan who never went to school there but adopt it for football in droves) will be strangely silent for at least a little while, me thinks. Which is a very good thing.

4. It's nice to know that we are such a part of your mind
that you have to start two threads about us. Thank you very much! And I assume you did not go to Michigan even. We seem to have that effect on people, that you all think about us. Blue envy?

Like I said, I'm not embarrassed. I am pissed at this. What little I saw was sloppy football. And I think Lloyd Carr's era of Michigan football is just about over now. Meh.

Congrats to AS for the win. You guys played great and we played awful. Enjoy your time in the spotlight. Honestly.

As for everyone else, well, embarrassing losses are not just something Michigan alone does. Your time will come too.

And for old times sake.....

Go Blue!

BTW am I the only DU Wolverine out here? Cause I seem to be the only one saying anything positive about the Wolverines.

5. I think you are the only one actually :)

I respect em though, coming from Ohio as I do. One of the great rivalries in college football, and last year's game was really awesome given all that occurred the day prior.

The days of woody and bo are behind us, and so is some of the fun in it all.

I think you have a fine coach, but he is no Bo - and them's so big shoes to fill.

7. I think Lloyd is an average coach
certainly no Bo and yes they are big shoes to fill. But it just looks like he keeps making the same mistakes over and over again, and I have a hard time respecting that. Oh well.

The Bo and Woody days are behind us, but maybe some great rivalry games are still ahead of us.

Cheers!

10. It's not really about Michigan per se
It's about the little guy taking on the big guy and winning once in a while, part of the great American myth.

Sure it doesn't happen very often but I celebrate whenever it does.

21. You got it.
One day a 16 seed will beat a 1 seed in the tournament and people will celebrate that also.

It doesn't hurt that the Michigan fans whined so much about not getting into the National Championship game last year either.

14. Wolverines fan here
Hubby went to Michigan. They are a great team - Saturday was bad, but as you said lots of teams have embarrassing losses. Look what happened to the Irish!

Go Blue!

15. You're not a great team when your record is 0-1 against 1AA opponents
It's in the rule book. Look it up.
Maybe if Michigan wins the rest of their games they'll be great.
Maybe.

20. ND lost to Georgia Tech
Georgia Tech is a pretty solid Division 1 team.

Michigan lost to a 1-AA team. Yes, a good 1-AA team, but a 1-AA team nonetheless.

Michigan is one of those perpetually overrated teams beloved by gasbag sports pundits. Same goes for Notre Dame, Texas, and Florida State.

12. I'm a PAC10 fan
I'm on the Pacific coast,and that was Stanford UCLA game, silly. UCB is going to beat UCLA this year and will go "The Granddaddy of Them All", the Rose Bowl. I'll take an interest in the eastern teams later in the season to see who will be playing Cal.


45-31!
