An old score you want to settle with non-rival
What program in any sport do you want revenge in particular against either in conference that isn't MSU or OSU or in non-conference that isn't ND in football or Duke in basketball. Has to ideally be either A) a team we got we got swept by recently in a home-and-home in non-con, B) someone we lost to in the postseason in any sport or C) a Big Ten team we have a losing streak against of more than one game. For my choice, I'll go with Iowa in the Big Ten, Utah in the non-conference in football and in basketball Arizona for sure
UNC in basketball
Iowa and South Carolina for football for me, UNC in basketball.
USC - 2007 Rose Bowl
I say a prayer once a week for the showdown against the Trojans who I hate so bad. My hundreds of prayers have been in the cosmos demanding the Rose Bowl in the title game within the next five years. It doesn't even have to be the title game. I just want the matchup in their backyard with the once again well oiled machine like it was back in the Schembechler days. I hate that school so bad. I even rooted for the bucs in whatever bowl game it was last winter.
Bo was 1-3 against USC.
1-4.
Losses in '70, '77, '79, '90, with the lone victory in '89 against his former assistant Larry Smith.
Yep. I guess it's not surprising when you consider that Mo is the only Michigan coach of the last 50 years with a winning bowl record.
Harbaugh too
USC for.......
........EVERYTHING!
It was a while ago, but it's Oregon for me. They ambushed a damn good UM team in Autzen in '03 and flattened them in the big house in '07, while laughing about it (looking at you, Dennis Dixon). Still can't get over it.
I remember the sledgehammer in the south end zone at halftime. . .
USC in football.
South Carolina football. Living here in Columbia is almost unbearable sometimes with constant reminders that they own us. The only thing helping is I’m friends with a lot of Clemson folks, so we can talk about waxing OSU some, which is fun
i would also say UNC basketball.
Florida State in football. Hate those guys going back to the Terrell Buckley game.
Also USC, both of 'em, in football.
Basketball has got to be Villanova right now.
Agree. There were ways to win that FSU game but that Terrell Buckley play frustrates me. I was sure it was pass interference (I was at the game) but then I saw the replay. Very clean pick six. Coach says Desmond Howard has to learn to know where is the DB and protect the ball.
That staggered kick-off return last time around still leaves me sick.
South Carolina, football. Although I can't see a scenario I would like that we would ever face them. Hopefully, ever.
Even the series record against Texas. Or Tennessee. Maybe Kansas State. Or Oklahoma. I also wish we could have gotten a winning record against Iowa Pre-Flight before they stopped playing.
Utah and Oregon
USC football by far, followed by FSU football.
For the big ten I would choose revenge against Iowa at Kinnick. Non-conference would be Bama and basketball would be Louisville.
Already got our revenge on Louisville in the second round of the tournament last year when Mo had a monster game which ended up being Pitino's last game coached there.
Re: Louisville
More revenge is in order.
The cocks in footvall. Two lucky wins against us in winnable bowl games. We owe them payback big time
My Revenge List:
Football: South Carolina, Florida State, Kansas State, Mississippi State, USC, UCLA, Texas, Oregon, Utah, Tennessee, Alabama, Texas A&M, and Arizona State.
Basketball: Villanova, Oregon, UNC, Kentucky, SMU, Oklahoma, Arizona, LSU, and South Carolina
SMU we already got the score settled actually. Remember the 2K Sports Classic
Football: Florida State for 2016 and 1992; Texas Rose Bowl; Oregon Home-and-Home. South Carolina for 2 bowls
BBall: Duke and UNC; Notre Dame for 2016
I don’t care what the parameters of this thread is...Ohio State
Although the Texas/Vince Young Rose Bowl and Louisville/North Carolina Tourney games really pissed me off.
Texas A&M in football
Utah. The 08 team sucked and they were pretty good (13-0 beating Alabama in the Sugar Bowl) so that one doesn’t bother me.
The 2014 game was hell. The rain, the Clay heisman pose, Gardner and Morris equally sucking. I stayed in the parking lot and re-entered to watch the game end.
2015 was an infuriating game full of missed chances. Utah is a middle of the road Pac 12 team and I am tired of them having our number.
FSU Football for sure.
Iowa and it's not even close. I'm an Iowa alum but I'll be damned if I don't root for the wolverines in every sport. 2016 shouldn't have happened.
For once I would like to play USC somewhere other than Los Angeles, ixeally in A.A.
*ideally. Is there an edit function in this new format?
University of Chicago. We went in to that last game undefeated in 1905, and lost 0-2. Still can't get over it......
Well, these aren't that old, but we are 0-2 against Utah & S. Carolina the last two times we've played each. We lost to Utah in '14 and '15 and we lost to S. Carolina in the Outback Bowls in '12 and '17. I'm also a little bitter about losing to FSU two years ago in Peppers supposed last game that he never played in and the Alabama game in '12 where we got handled. I don't like our chances against Bama yet, but I wouldn't mind extracting some revenge on Utah, S. Carolina, & FSU.
Oregon, USC, USC, Utah..in basketball its UNC and Duke
Non-college sports division:
The Minnesota "never sufficiently to be damned" Twins. Twinkie, Twinkie. A thousand deaths are not enough for Twinkie!
The refs from the miscarriage in Columbus two falls ago.
Florida State in football
Foosball:
1.Oregon 2.USC 3.Iowa 4.USCe 5.Texas 6.FSU 7.Utah 8.Nebraska 9.Alabama 10.Toledo
Damn, a whole lotta payback in order.
BBall:
1.UNC 2.Louisville 3.Nova
The 2007 Oregon game made me feel like I was in a room full of hot women with my pants around my ankles wearing Sponge Bob underwear.
i was more embarrassed by that game then App State. App State was a fluke . . . it was the first game of the year, some players were hurt, it was a beautiful lethargic-weather kind of day. The team plain and simple had its head up its ass.
But Oregon was not a fluke. It was a pantsing on national TV.
I want some payback.
Umm, Toledo?
This will always be Wisconsin for me. Scheming bastards, they regularly get us right before OSU or I'm the first conference game after they feast on a month of cupcakes.
Villanova in basketball, but that's less hate-filled revenge as just wanting a runback.
Nebraska in football because I've still never gotten over them wrongfully stealing half our national title. And also USC because...everything?
I'm late to the party, but if I am ever diagnosed with a terminal disease, I'm headed to North Carolina and will burn Boone to the ground.
