This was the largest margin of victory in this series for either side since Michigan won 49-3 in 2002

Like the title says. A 34 point MOV is the biggest in this series since a 46 point MOV in 2002.

MSU's largest MOV in that time was 24 in their 2014 home win. MSU's largest MOV in series history is 34, happening once in a 34-0 win for MSU in 1967.

There's a reason why they celebrate that 2015 game so much - they knew, right then, that order was going to be restored and they weren't going to be winning many more against us.

Can’t see them having a real shot against us for at least two more years. Could be longer than that, but it’s just hard to project talent more than a year or two out.

There’s the late Hoke era again. The symptoms popping up for this MSU program are baaaaaad.

“You’ve got to go back Brady Hoke and Bobby Williams to find coaches losing like this” is not a ringing endorsement of Dantonio. And my next sentence, not original to me at all, says everything about Dantonio that we need to know:

I hope he comes back next year.

MD is the absolute best they could hope for in a coach...  it’s precious to me that they think they can hire a replacement capable of getting them to over perform consistently the way Dantonino did.  Pride comes before something something dark side...

 

Edit: Something, something complete...

The 2006 game could have gotten waaaay worse than the 31-13 outcome.  Once we were up 24-0 at halftime, Carr played ten times more conservative than he usually did.  Even slappy Mike Valenti said Michigan could have scored a 100 if we at least tried in the second half.  

Maybe Carr was eager to get home and watch the Tigers beat the Yankees in the playoffs.

That 49-3 was my first Michigan game in attendance. I was in the north end zone. Somehow I got stuck in the MSU section.

46 point MOV gives us something to aim for next  year in their house.  They aren't getting any better with those recruiting classes they've gotten lately.   It's not over, it's never over.  More beat downs for years to come.

I am psyched about the win and also really happy about how healthy the team seems to be at this point in the season. I know some guys are dinged up, but I believe everyone who left the field with an injury today returned to the game. Am I right about this?

Wish with the 2nd and 3rd down stop harbaugh would called timeout to try make 51-10 but it is what it is, harbaugh would be getting shit from media for it

I wanted that too. But I honestly would worry that Mork would flat out order his guys to blatantly injure someone. I’m not talking the shit they pull with regularity, I’m talking about just flat out assault with no attempt to even make it look like a football play. I seriously wouldn’t put it past that sorry excuse for a human being.
