Big 10 Championship Game Open Thread
No meteors seem in the forecast in the greater Indiana area per NASA, so we'll be forced to watch our top 2 competitors in the East face off. Short of a 25+ pt blowout MSU is destined for the Rose, OSU is playing for the right to give up 60 pts to Florida State.
Have at it....

MSU has a more developed program than Michigan does right now.

in year three. UM's program cratered under RR. I don't think you appreciate how bad the state of the program was when Hoke took over. The defense in particular was in shambles. The special teams weren't so special. This isn't an OSU situation where a guy walks in with the perfect guy for his offense. It was a near total rebuild.
Now it hasn't gone perfectly. Borges and Funk have done a substandard job. That needs to change if UM is going to make the expected jump in performance.

I have been shaking my head this whole game to think about how long it might be before we even get to the B1G Championship game. :(

Yeah, it's a tough time to be a Michigan fan watching your two main rivals slug it out in a classic Big Ten championship. I don't think we're THAT far behind, but we definitely have something to prove next season if we want to be in the conversation with OSU and MSU. They've set the bar.
We need a huge influx of toughness next year.

damn you, Fox. I ask for so little.

Seriously - is there a good chance for Bama v OSU? I have not been following the BCS bowl possibilities closely. Just about the only positive of the year would be that ending... lol.

1954, 1956 and 1966
They voted for themselves to go in 1974 but Ohio went

I wish it would be Hoke, but Dantonio is going to give Urban heart problems.
It would be a Saban acolyte.
December 8th, 2013 at 1:08 AM ^
he will have four new offensive lineman and no Carlos Hyde. I think he stays, but should probably go.

I truly think the cash offers he's getting in Ohio could keep him in "school."
