I'm not sure we want to go there unless you would like being called Catholepistemiad, or University of Michigania.
These were the first names for the U of M.
Considering the enjoyment that the other school's getting from having the highest average attendance for home football games during the 2014 season, maybe it would be better to call that other school "Horseshoe U" (though others may suggest changing the "oe" to "it.")
I really kinda like University of Michigania, catho-sompun or other, not so much!
In 2015, who ended Ohio State's reign as #1 in home attendance?
And are we sure this is from Ohio State? Because it sure looks like an ad from ticketmaster
I read "Monrovia" instead of more trivia and got all excited that we may have gotten a new Bolivia.
They're so dumb. That was only a one-time thing for them. No way in hell they will be tops in attendance this season!! Go Blue!!

Imagine how their fans would react if we made a sign that said...
14-7
Q: Who led the 2015 National Champions in the 2nd quarter for over 7 minutes in "The Game?"
They would laugh their asses off and we'd cover our faces in shame.
This is moronic, OSU, stop trying so damn hard.
*2014.
They did not and will not win the 2015 one.
Mr. Yost correctly said the Buckeyes are the 2015 National Champions, not that The Game he was referring to was in 2015.
It would be much easier for them to tout their dominance in the rivalry over the last decade-plus, or to perhaps mention that their head coach has won several national championships while ours has none.

I am impressed they didn't use phrases like "breathtaking outlooks on the Olentangy River, provided you sit in certain seats and it isn't foggy" or "short drive from the Ohio Farm Bureau 4-H Center". Also, maybe the location of the nearest Menard's or Meijer in the event someone needs a cooler. If you're going to sell something based on its popularity, you might as well sell people on the reasons why it might be popular.
Not to be a Debbie Downer, but one selling point could be their National Championship season. Just a guess on my part.

We are so in their heads.
This is Harbaugh's mode of operation . . . immediately pick a fight with the biggest bully on the block. He did it with USC. He did it with Seattle. Now he's doing it with Ohio State.
I expected something like this eventually. What I didn't expect is how easily Ohio State would fall for it.
They are an awfully nervous looking outfit for a program that has just won a National Championship and dispatched the SEC champion and the trendiest program in CFB doing it.
If I'm a top recruit and I'm looking at Ohio State, I'm going to ask myself if I should also be paying attention to Michigan. Because Ohio State sure pays a lot of attention to Michigan.
You are right. He is also baiting Saban a bit too. Harbaugh is not even worried about Sparty because he knows that situation will work itself out as it historically does.

I don't get into the whole little brother thing just calling them for what they are,Children. My wife's aunt and uncle are huge Buckeye fans. When they found out she was dating a Wolverine they starting treating her and her family like crap.
Maybe not everyone of them is like that but to me that is bush league crap. Sport over family makes me think they have mental issues as well.
for all the poor coolers.
If I could trade the overall attendance record for a 16 year head-to-head record like they've had against us, I'd take it. Realize this is salt in the wound, but let's keep our eye on the prize folks.
These prizes are not mutually exclusive. In fact, the best thing we as fans can do to help end OSU's winning streak is show up in droves to home games - all home games.
Free advertising for UM FB Tickets in 2015...I'm okay with that.

Who cared enough to post they didn't care?
I should add I enjoy this sort of thing from both sides. I thought the coaching flier was clever. Hoke, for all his faults, did work hard at getting the rivalry back on a more even keel.It's not the horseshoe! It's the toilet bowl! Now that I look at the picture of their stadium again... there is no way I can't but think of it as such and forever more.
Where's Michigan playing OSU next year? Response: It's in the the toilet, it's at the cammode (or if you prefer the shitter)
PS: Will think it, but won't say it (at least not till we win 3 in a row)

When the students engineered a temporary attendance and revenue decline,
it helped get rid of Brandon
It helped motivate the admin to get Harbaugh.
Also, it will now focus more attention on attendance each home game this year---as it becomes apparent that UM will inevitably the title back.
If OSU continues to post this graphic, just compare UM and OSU attendance using a running average for this year. Better still, post the attendance figures for the past several decades.
...that Michigan will set a NCAA single-season average attendance record this fall.
OSU will just add another ring of seats to the Toilet Bowl(© WolverineDevotee)
Delete "of seats" and you have it.
Just didn't execute, and that's on me.
Despite the fact that it really hurts to see Michigan fall off like that, I have to say that I love this stuff. Keep the banter going! Makes it that much more fun.
lets win some games first and then we can worry about the other crap.
