I've found the best way to watch any football pre-game show (Not just FOX's, but anybody's) is with the TV on but the sound turned off until kickoff.

Not a novel concept, I know, but I tuned in to watch the game, not to see a bunch of talking heads trying to justify their salaries by babbling about what we might see.

It’s so strange to me how he just refuses to say the word “Michigan”.  
Actual Michigan alumni say Ohio State.  Urban coaches there as one of several stops so it’s not like he’s only associated with OSU yet these years later he just refuses.  Such a child.

Was born in Ohio, cut his teeth under Earl Bruce as a GA at OSU, so its not like he was a complete outsider when he took the OSU job. 

Maybe its a little petty, but if this were Harbaugh sitting in that seat we’d love it.  It’s a rivalry and its what makes college football great. Meyer is a piece of shit, but I don't begrudge him for stuff like this. Ive seen some of his post-game analysis and he has been known to give credit to Michigan where its due.

If the timing had been right, Meyer would have accepted the Michigan head coaching job if it had been offered to him. It never was, and he accepted the Ohio State job and doubled down on the Buckeye nonsense. I wonder if he refuses to say Michigan State and only says the Wolverines or Spartans or what. Maybe it's just his wink to Ohio State fans. Who knows? IDK, IDC.

I mean, he's still on OSU's payroll (probably) and still won't even say "Michigan"....what do we expect?

And he's obviously a huge douchebag, so whatever. Don't give what asshats say a second thought.

I think we must face the possibility, and I am sure some of us have, that we could play a corpse and Urban Meyer would have Michigan on upset alert, so take that for what you will.

Urban was a much better coach than announcer.  Also a much, much better philanderer.  In fairness, he is a better announcer than he was as a professor of leadership or whatever at OSU.  So there's that.
