UM will not be in a bowl.
December 20th, 2020 at 7:50 PM ^
I swear they announced this when they canceled the Iowa game. No?
December 20th, 2020 at 9:43 PM ^
Well shit...
December 21st, 2020 at 11:16 AM ^
Well, shit...
December 20th, 2020 at 7:52 PM ^
Good. They do not deserve it.
December 20th, 2020 at 9:46 PM ^
Joke Time:
Q. What is the difference between Michigan and Cheerios?
A. Cheerios should be in a bowl!
December 21st, 2020 at 5:33 PM ^
A. Cheerios could run a consistent, modern offensive scheme?
December 20th, 2020 at 7:52 PM ^
Why should they be in a bowl?
December 20th, 2020 at 8:35 PM ^
Because we would be like cannon fodder for another team, this giving other fan bases a chance to point at Michigan and laugh. And, Florida asked to play us.
December 20th, 2020 at 9:08 PM ^
I think OSU is going to be cannon fodder for Clemson!
December 20th, 2020 at 9:58 PM ^
Who cares? I derive no joy from watching OSU lose a game that we have no hope of ever even playing in.
It must be nice to root for a team that has actually played in the CFP. Hell, it must be nice to root for a team that has actually played in B1G Championship Game.
December 20th, 2020 at 11:06 PM ^
I care. It’s infinitely better than seeing them win a title. Not that they’re gonna be able to get a recruiting bump from winning but I sure as hell don’t want to be reminded of them anymore than I already am.
December 20th, 2020 at 7:53 PM ^
They should probably all sit Down and smoke a bowl
December 20th, 2020 at 8:52 PM ^
Done!
December 20th, 2020 at 9:30 PM ^
Done.
December 20th, 2020 at 9:37 PM ^
Only a couple more hours until I'm done with work and I can join y'all
December 20th, 2020 at 9:49 PM ^
If only I lived in a legal state...
December 20th, 2020 at 9:50 PM ^
It hasn't stopped me.
December 21st, 2020 at 12:08 PM ^
I live near a legal state. Close enough for me.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:05 PM ^
I think the majority of us are okay with this.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:55 PM ^
Wait! Is a majority of us OK not going to a bowl or is a majority of us OK with smoking a bowl? Such a dilemma.
December 20th, 2020 at 10:44 PM ^
Smoke the bowl don't play in a bowl...
December 21st, 2020 at 9:37 PM ^
Of course!
December 20th, 2020 at 8:08 PM ^
Wow - I guess 2 wins does not earn a bowl after all
December 20th, 2020 at 8:12 PM ^
I thought that too, but 2 - 8 South Carolina is playing in a bowl game.
Not that I want this year's Michigan team to play in a bowl game, but I do wonder if they opted out or just didn't get invited.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:38 PM ^
Michigan would have been invited because money.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:45 PM ^
If a head coach has a bowl bonus in his contract odds are that team is going to a bowl. Tennessee is 3-7 but Jeremy Pruitt gets a $200,000.00 bonus if UT gets a bowl appearance.
Kind of disappointed about no bowl game. That extra practice time can be useful, especially after a lousy season.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:54 PM ^
You need a head coach to play a game.
December 21st, 2020 at 7:23 PM ^
Well, time for the age old argument to consider strength of schedule.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:13 PM ^
Here’s an idea-give our spot to Army.
December 20th, 2020 at 9:16 PM ^
Would have been cool to see them accept, but only if Army could take the spot. Would have been good pub for everyone.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:17 PM ^
Thank goodness!
December 20th, 2020 at 8:26 PM ^
No doubt they and countless others would've accepted a spot if they could've turned a profit on a bowl game.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:32 PM ^
Not deserved and better to stay safe for players, coaches, and fans.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:47 PM ^
Bowl games lol
December 20th, 2020 at 8:52 PM ^
THANK. GOD. The only thing that could make this season worse, is Michigan getting dong punched by Coastal Carolina.
December 20th, 2020 at 8:55 PM ^
I cannot wait until at least three different threads announce MSU’s inevitable loss to northwestern!
December 20th, 2020 at 8:59 PM ^
People were very wise and decided not to jinx it while the game was in action.
Kudos, people.
December 20th, 2020 at 9:03 PM ^
Seconded
December 20th, 2020 at 9:05 PM ^
Montana State is playing Northwestern?
December 20th, 2020 at 9:05 PM ^
They need the extra practices, regardless of whether they play in a game.
December 20th, 2020 at 10:00 PM ^
A wise teacher once said, “practice makes permanent, not perfect”. If you’re being taught incorrectly, the product is still going to suck.
December 21st, 2020 at 6:26 AM ^
I love that.
December 20th, 2020 at 9:46 PM ^
I’m shocked! Shocked!
December 20th, 2020 at 9:48 PM ^
yes, we are aware. Thanks for confirming though, Free Press.
December 21st, 2020 at 6:27 AM ^
Your Free Press whining is so 10 years ago.
December 20th, 2020 at 10:28 PM ^
Our coach already left for SOCAL, so of course there will not be a bowl game. Normally I would say the extra practice would help this young team but not with many of the coaches on this staff.
