Scott Frost Would Rather Be Playing Any Other Team From Michigan
Just saw this quote that he gave earlier this week to the Orlando Sentlnel:
"If you'd ask me whether I'd like to play Michigan or some other team in Michigan that might not be ranked in the top 10 in the country, I might not give you an honest answer on that," Frost said with a sly grin. "But listen, this game is on the schedule. I don't want our kids to be afraid to play anybody. I think our guys are excited to go up there and look that challenge in the face and take swings at them."
So, in one breath he says he's afraid to play Michigan, and in the next breath he says he doesn't want his kids to be afraid to play Michigan.
Sorry, Scotty, but you aren't coming up here to play Ferris State or Hillsdale.
And listen to your coach, boys. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
You'll find the article here.

They also struggled in that game. It was 12-0 on FGs for awhile there before the weak defense of the bottom of the barrel FCS team gave out.

That should be a shirt
September 7th, 2016 at 11:24 PM ^
Must own this shirt.
September 8th, 2016 at 12:24 AM ^
I want this on a shirt.... Where were you the other day when the board was taking submissions for T-shirts?!?
September 7th, 2016 at 9:44 PM ^
Don't care about what the cupcake has to say.

umbig11, I am under the impression that you work in the AD. Is there any acknowledgement of what he said in 97 among the football program? are they using it as motivation?
September 7th, 2016 at 10:22 PM ^
September 7th, 2016 at 10:27 PM ^
Sounds good to me
September 7th, 2016 at 10:21 PM ^
September 7th, 2016 at 9:44 PM ^
Who cares? Scott Frost said some things in 97, he's going to pay for it big. Why must we keep talking about him?

And let's forgive Spartan Bob. And George Steinbrenner. And the athletic directors from 1973.
September 7th, 2016 at 11:52 PM ^
And Rich Rod!
Too soon?

Fuck Penn State
Fuck the Paternos
Fuck Spartan Bob
Fuck George Steinbrenner
Fuck Ohio
Fuck You State
And Fuck Scott Frost

Spartan Bob admittedly cheated to keep his team in the game. Steinbrenner pressured Henson into leaving Michigan by leveraging a Yankees contract which no non-OSU owner would have offered to Henson. The ADs in 1973 screwed Michigan out of a Rose Bowl appearance due to internicine politics.
Scott Frost said his undefeated team was better than our undefeated team. I'm not seeing that as in the same ballpark. Not even in the same league. Frost may or may not be a douche, but when your team is undefeated and destroys Tennessee in a bowl game, arguing that your team is the best in college football is hardly atrocious behavior.
I don't need to hate Scott Frost to make the game on Saturday interesting. Fifteen year old slights from a then-college QB really don't bother me.

you're putting the sour in Sourpuss.
begone with your logic!

The earlier stuff was worse, saying that we were being considered for the #1 because we hadn't been national champs in 50 years. There was a lot more tearing down of Michigan in the run-up to the two games, and CBS (?) who was broadcasting Nebraska-Tenn put up some graphic comparing Nebraska and Michigan. The graphic showed stats that favored Nebraska including margin of victory and, how their opponents fared in bowl games. Their opponents won most of their bowl games and ours were 0-7. But they played two fewer opponents that went to bowl games. Oh well.
September 8th, 2016 at 12:24 PM ^
They also left out some key comparative stats as well:

This is going to be a big score, likely in the 60 range again. No mercy this week. Besides, there's little drop off when we substitute...long afternoon for Scotty.

Yeah, Scott Frost it may very well be, but UCF it definitely is and you don't need the predictive sites (you don't need Frost either - what he says now matters not) - although the numbers are always fun - this time around to tell you that the correct prediction is:

I really hate that you're making me somewhat defend this tool but when you're a coach, you don't want your players to be afraid of ANY opponent, even when you know you're insanely overmatched. That's just common sense.
The guy is still an asshole and I look forward to our guys beating the living crap out of his squad but let's be real here.

Not gonna lie, the memory of shitty teams carving us up over the past few years is still fresh. Let's beat the holy hell out of these slappies and start prepping for Colorado.

Never quote a Lannister. Even if he may be Targaryn. If anyone should do that it should be an Irish fan. Michigan is the king in the North baby!
September 8th, 2016 at 2:46 PM ^
True, true. The North Remembers...But this quote was during Blackwater and Tyrion was appealing to the common grunts to save their own homes in Kings Landing in spite of the Lannisters.
Keep in mind that Tyrion himself is essentially a exiled from his family anyway.

I thought about this yesterday after reading postgame comments from Peppers and Gary (who were disappointed). He's playing a pissed off defense because they didn't get their shutout...
This defense is about to be locked in and ready to fuck shit up.
