Michigan's come-from-way-behind 2008 home win vs Wisky at 10 this morning. A stinker until the 4th quarter.

followed by, @11am,

the 2013 triple OT game @ NU. This one is almost as bad as the bad M00N in 2014, with nothing but FGs until OT. A real stinker until a miracle finish for a tie, then the suspense of a triple OT.

Enjoy the agony.

It might be a good thing then that I'll be at work at 10 AM and unable to recreate the fact that I showed up TO the 2008 Michigan-Wisconsin game pre-blasted because I somehow felt like expressing my feelings about that season through drink at a tailgate just hours before. That being said, it did make the first three quarters that much more palatable and the fourth quarter that much more exciting.

You could almost (almost) make an argument that the 2013 Northwestern game was just as ugly as M00N. Considering Gardner threw about 7 dropped interceptions, 2 of which would have been pick sixes. The B1G broadcasters were dumbfounded that NU were dropping all these picks that were thrown right to them.

The only memorable thing about that game was the field goal unit just barely getting off the game tying kick in time, while the Northwestern president stood under the goal post frantically trying to convince himself it was no good.

That show ticks me off especially in light of recent events at OSU. Similar to back then, OSU had a strong season but their starting QB goes down to injury late in the season. Using the old school logic of "tiebreaker", people would've said they couldn't get t done with Cardell Jones. Yet OSU gets to prove the world wrong while we don't. I know it's different time place and set of rules to determine bowls/playoffs but still. The recent OSU success under similar circumstances pours some extra salt into that wound.

I put my styrofoam bricks away till the start of next season. Not about to pull them out to fling at the tv while I watch that. My heart still breaks for Dennis Franklin and that team.
