a very good feeling about this game.  I was still skeptical going into both the Nebraska and Ohio game, but for whatever reason I just feel calm and confident that team 132 will find a way.  GO BLUE

back into Maize and Blue focus. Between Christmas shopping, the actual holiday, as well as the rise to somethingness of the DETROIT LIONS, I've put our Wolverines on the back burner. Time to get them back onto a front burner.

That's kinda strong, care to specify? Are you taking 'The team, the team, the team' to extremes, do you follow someone else in the NFC North, or are you down on the commercialization of Christmas like Pope Benedict XVI?

I'd assume it was meant for

I'd assume it was meant for the "Wolverines on the back burner" comment. There's nothing extreme about having your priorities straight. Seriously? Mentioning an NFL team as a contributing factor? Football's played on Saturdays (with a sprinkle of Thur and Fri and with an exception for bowl games). Anything else is just a hollow distraction.

Let's hope Hoke can do something Bo and Lloyd couldn't do

and that's win his first bowl game as Michigan's HC. Since Schembechler came to town, our bowl record is a not-so-sparkling 15-21.

True, but that record is

True, but that record is dragged down by an 0-7 mark in the 1970s.  Since 1980 we're treading water (15-14). 

Gary Moeller did win his first bowl (the 35-3 destruction of Ole Miss).

Gotta put in a word for my main man Mo.

Technically, the first bowl he coached was the 1988 Hall of Fame Bowl, while Bo was recovering from heart bypass surgery. Of course, he won that one, too (28-24 over 'Bama).

To each his own

But this is a bit lame in my view. There was a Sparty fan at the Ohio game, dressed in green. He was walking around and looking around, just waiting (and hoping) for someone to say something. Everyone ignored him, without saying a word. Michigan-Ohio is so much more important than Sparty that it merited absolutely no response.

Wear Georgia colors and taunt as needed, but there's no reason to wear maize. M doesn't have anything to do with that game.

this is like wearing Ohio colors to a Michigan/MSU. Michigan fans would definitely give that guy crap. Blue should wear his Maize at the Outback.

I don't know; sounds kinda Sparty.

Makes it seems like they matter more that you go to their game.



At the very least, change the sign to "I'd rather be in New Orleans." good double meaning there.

you're proving my point

Michigan-Ohio is always in play. At the Gator Bowl last year there was an Ohio fan cheering for Miss St. I can respect that. Sparty is an important rival in the sense that we need to dominate them. But wearing a jersey and taunting at their bowl game elevates their importance beyond their place in the CFB hierarchy.
