Tied for longest BIG title drought in UM football history

Submitted by StellaBlue on

In response to a comment in a prior thread I went and looked up the history of Michigan Big Ten titles.  Despite our long and storied history, we missed 13 straight years last century, winning in 1950 and not again until 1964.  With our miss this year we are now again at 13 straight misses (shared the title with Iowa in 2004 and won outright in 2003).  Sure hope we can snap it next year!

Its way tougher to win the Big Ten then it was in the past .  More teams to play and we are in an unbalanced division  . Plus all those years where we were handicapped from poor head coaches .  

The sooner we win it and dont have to see any more of these threads, the better .

 

edited to add. We could always have it worse. Indiana, Purdue, Minnesota . I would give the rest of the B10 teams outside UM OSU PSU and MSU a shot maybe once every ten years or so maybe even 20

We are getting closer and next year will be tough,  lets hope our talent and coaching can get it together and have a magical year .

by 2019. We have a chance in 2018 but a lot of tough road games to win. Who knows if we can finally have a good QB, our offense could become quite explosive and the D will continue to be good.
