Wow. I just read on RCMB (I decided to check it in case there is discussion about our ? team...sure enough, there is) that Beilein resigned because he went 0-3 vs. MSU last season. I truly hope for that poster’s sake that he is kidding.

Went over there earlier to see their reaction to NC.

in a thread about how an announcer compared Z to Winston as the best PG in the big 10. and I

quote "Z might be 2nd best PG in the big 10 but he's nowhere near Winston, he's crap Just look he only played 17 minutes vs NC and NC played a shit game and let Michigan win a game they never should have been in"

So our best player and #2 PG in the big 10 plays 17 minutes but we got the game gifted to us and are no-talent hacks? But yet the same posted think's MSU is getting disrespected if they drop out of the top 5 after losing to RPI #150 Virginia Tech at 4-2.

I went and checked this thread. Starts off with the OP saying that we are good, and that needs to be noticed. 

First reply: "After starting the same way last year then going 0-3 causing Beiline to bolt, lets just wait and see before we start making assumptions."

Third reply: "They are ok, we should sweep them easily, again."

Sixth reply: "Not hard to beat a team that shoots 15% from the 3 and was only 10/20 from the free throw line."

Seventh reply: "Good teams dont give up 21 offensive rebounds."

For fans of a team that has already lost to UK (Evansville says hi) and Virginia Tech (um, who?) they sure talk a big game, don't they? I have no doubt that MSU will be tough this year, and will get better throughout the year. That is Izzo's MO. But man, most of them can't stop being douchebags for a second and recognize UM is strong, can they?

OK, so the fact that you need to check on how Michigan is doing in connection with the MSU fan base  after a huge win, says what about you, exactly? Who gives a shit about them now? Play your schedule and worry about who's next, not how they feel about it. In the end, you just gotta win and beat them. And that's it.

So that means if we win tomorrow, we are GUARANTEED to win a national title? Like, they can end the season and give us a trophy, right? RIGHT???

Harbaugh has had more signature wins in his first two years than than the previous 7 years combined had. 

Perhaps you forgot how low RR and Hoke had Michigan. Yes Denard helped make the dark hole seem bright but Harbaugh inherited a dumpster fire and won twice as many games with a QB who wasn't even wanted by Iowa in his first season than compared to the previous year.

Our SOS is going to be Sky High! with 3 quality wins already in Nonconference and Gonzaga, Louisville and Oregon still on the docket I think one could argue that our Nonconference SOS will be at or near the top

So let me get this straight:

Some of you are making fun of Michigan State fans, when, on Thanksgiving, you are not just posting here with me, but going on THEIR board to see what THEY are saying and bringing it back HERE?

But, we're the "cool board"?
