wow, you are a young senior....
Still, I kept my promise and I enjoyed myself. I am admittedly not the loudest fan most of the time, but today I made sure to yell until my voice hurt.
We sure haven't seen the success that other graduating classes have, but we sure as hell had a lot to cheer for.
OSU is going with what has worked for years. Big fucking deal, they are happy with winning the Big Ten and nothing else. We are attempting to modernize, to emulate the teams that have been winning national titles rather than Big Ten ones.

I'm sorry guys.... :-(
Have at it...

Dude, it's not just you, it's everyone. My class, and the one before that. Three straight classes will now graduate from Michigan without experiencing a win over OSU. Six years.
If that doesn't make you sick, I don't know what does.
For the record, I'm behind Rich, but it still doesn't make that stat any less unpleasant.

last 2 years of football have been rough to say the least. fun to be in the big house for the last time as a student even though it's pretty much been miserable in there the last 2 years

As I am a freshman here, i pray to god that i will be able to witness a michigan victory OSU and if i don't witness that...there might not be a god

I feel for you. We went 2-2 during my years (2000-2004), and that felt bad enough. I couldn't imagine losing all four while I went there. Next year baby! Lets hope you do better as an alumnus.

That really sucks and hopefully I won't have to experience the same thing, as I will be a freshman next year. However, no matter how bad you feel(and how bad I would feel, if it was me), it must be a lot worse to be a senior on the team that directly experienced that fate.

I grew up a an absolutely huge Michigan fan - before 1997. My first game in the big house was against Appalachian State. Today was my last. I don't really know what else to say.

No offense to you MLAWyer but good riddance. It is clearly your fault that we've been on the run we've been on lately.

Senior also. I was a freshman when we played OSU when we were #1 and #2. Sad to graduate without seeing a win against OSU, but i'm glad I got to experience Michigan Football and the excellent academics here.
Going to miss this place :(

I remember freshman year when we won every home game before playing #1 OSU in '06. Such an amazing year of football..then App St. happened and it was pretty much downhill after that. Even with all of the madness and heartache, I've had many great football memories in those stands and on gameday in general.

I always was and always will be a diehard for Michigan. My four years at the school did not go as I had hoped especially after '06. But Rodriguez showed me he gets the rivalry today. He saved up a bunch of stuff and take away Forcier's dumb mistakes and Michigan played well enough to beat a good Ohio State team. As for Forcier I know he's a freshman and he did alot of good things today. But talk is cheap and I'm sick of him going to the media after things like this. That is not leadership that is trying to be a celebrity. How about stepping up to your teammates and telling them that speech and allowing them to spread the word. By going straight to media with that crap it's obvious he is trying to boost his image. I want Gardner to get here as soon as possible to give Tate all the competition he can handle next year. The D will improve with a staff that stays relatively the same and the offense is only going up. But the QB play needs to improve and yes Tate's a freshman but he has to get his ego in check.

I'd say I feel for you guys...but last year was my senior year. Sorry. I've got you trumped.
