247 has become the worst mobile site as of late. Is anyone else experiencing the same? Edit: issues concerning ad pop ups, freezing the browser, and exceptionally long loading times.

Although I don't know that Urban Meyer ever really sleeps easy. I do get the sense that he has a high level of respect for Jim Harbaugh, as evidenced by several things he has said over time, including the one word response of a couple weeks back.

by overzealous Bucknuts but always sees his school through a scarlet and gray prism, even when Michigan clearly has a more experienced team with next-level guys waiting to demonstrate what Corso correctly assessed. It's not a 2017 proposition, the tide is on the brink of turning. Either Herbie doesn't want to accept that or he hasn't done his homework

Galloway as a broadcaster he makes Howard look as tho he never went to class. When Galloway speaks he sounds like a professional broadcaster, Howard sounds like a guy from a inner city Detroit high school that is working a summer intership.....and its not working out. Also he is the biggest homer on TV. He has actually lost all credibility because of the ridiculous homer picks he has made over the years. There are many intelligent people that come out of UM that go on to be great broadcasters. Howard is not one of them. Only recently has he shown the ability to property complete a sentence using the English language. But even now he tends to speak ebonlish more often than not.

Matt Millen is literally the worst announcer ever. Wasn't it last year, that he was talking trash about players from some team...damn memory.  I pray that he doesn't cover Michigan games, but unfortunately he does at least 1 every year.  That forces my hand to the remote's mute button.  Followed by me pulling up the radio broadcast.  F Millen!

Herbstreit's OSU teams (1988-92) went 0-4-1 against Michigan.  (I miss John Cooper at OSU.)

Corso, as coach of Indiana, went 0-8 against us.  That's why he's still bitter about the '79 game; it was his chance to at least get a tie, only for Anthony Carter to steal the show on the final play.

While Herbie was making the case for a team with a weak non conference to not make the playoff all show. Wonder why he's been trying to push that narrative this year.

He has no interest in Michigan being any good this year or ever. His true colors are truly coming out. Like every other Buckeye with their backhanded compliments of... "We want Michigan to be good again." That's not true at all. They don't want Michigan to be good. Just like I don't care what shape Ohio State is in as a program... Good, bad, or indifferent... I will take just as much joy in kicking their ass.

Given Herbstreit's track record of fairness, maybe because he believes it? Our non-conference schedule is pitifully weak this season. We all know it. The playoff has thus far prompted teams to schedule tougher opponents, resulting in great matchups and weekends like this coming one that are absolutely loaded with huge games. That's good for football. If a team with a weak schedule leaps a team with a strong schedule but the same basic record, teams will have an incentive to schedule weaker teams to protect their record. That's bad for football. And in the future it will be bad for us. If Michigan goes undefeated, we are ok. But if we lose a game, our resume is pretty dodgy. Between this weekend and the 17th, every team ranked ahead of us plays a much tougher non-conference opponent than we do. Some of those guys are going to wind up with one loss but a great resume. Michigan can't afford a loss in the same way.

It really boils down to whether we win the Big Ten. Last year we all thought MSU was done when they lost to Nebraska. If we were to lose one game - say, to Iowa - we still have a chance to beat Ohio State in Columbus. If we finish the season off with that and a win in the championship game then nobody will be talking about our non conference schedule.
