That I will watch the game. Then I will know the result :).
December 25th, 2017 at 11:29 AM ^
78-3. We score 11 td's and go for 2 in honor of Steve Spurrier.
December 25th, 2017 at 11:42 AM ^
In honor of Vincent Smith* who died a little after that hit
December 25th, 2017 at 12:05 PM ^
That hit made Vincent Smith even stronger. The evidence is the work he's doing now.
December 25th, 2017 at 2:09 PM ^
Wasn't even that hard of a hit. A loose chinstrap and a helmet flying off is what made it look like something. Just goes to show how many people that watch football don't know anything about it. Vince had just taken the handoff and hadn't even taken off yet. Was barely moving and an unblocked 300 lb. freakish mutation of a human gets a head full of steam at a 200 pounder from 5 yards away. Vince was on the ground with his head in the air like, get the hell off of me already. Vince was tough. I've said it before and I'll say it again. What a bunch of dipshits announcers and the average fans are. Sucks to know I'll see that dumb playback like 10 times on New Years Day.
December 25th, 2017 at 11:30 AM ^
I’m excited to see what a healthy Peters can do. I’m predicting an ass kicking similar to Citrus Bowl vs Florida
December 25th, 2017 at 11:30 AM ^
Coconut shrimp destroys the bloomin' onion.
35-7
December 25th, 2017 at 5:31 PM ^
I'm thinking along these same lines.
December 26th, 2017 at 12:00 AM ^
Funny cause me and mad hatter are snorting along these same lines too.
*we are not snorting. I do not know mad hatter.

for South Carolina
December 25th, 2017 at 11:34 AM ^
Harbaugh and company, despite a disappointing 2017, will set the tone for 2018 in this game
Brandon Peters has a big game and UM will end the year on a great note!
Should be fun
December 25th, 2017 at 11:36 AM ^
I will bet Michigan against the spread and win easily. They gonna die!
December 25th, 2017 at 11:36 AM ^
Michigan 34-10, Peters 18-23 for 250 and 3 TD.
Merry Christmas
December 25th, 2017 at 2:25 PM ^
Once we get going, Harbaugh pounds the ground game down their throats
December 25th, 2017 at 5:31 PM ^
Higdon with 100+ rushing yards in this game
December 25th, 2017 at 11:40 PM ^
This is very feasible
December 25th, 2017 at 11:38 AM ^
M 34-14
December 25th, 2017 at 11:43 AM ^
UM 31
Gamecocks 13
December 25th, 2017 at 11:44 AM ^
That will put him far and away #1 QB heading into spring practice....
December 25th, 2017 at 11:49 AM ^
We are going to beat them like a rented mule.
December 25th, 2017 at 11:52 AM ^
Dem gamecocks finna get they ass murk'd
/hatchett'd
December 25th, 2017 at 12:55 PM ^
Don’t count on it. Their kicking has been atrocious this season. My personal prosecution is m by a score of 38-17
December 25th, 2017 at 1:28 PM ^
South Carolina misses two extra points due to their atrocious kicking.
December 25th, 2017 at 11:54 AM ^
a man lives out his dream to be the Bloomin' Onion mascot.
Regardless of who wins, Ryan Nanni wins.
But, while I'm here, I also say Brandon Peters sends a message that it's his job to lose.
December 25th, 2017 at 11:53 AM ^
Good guys!!
GO BLUE AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
December 25th, 2017 at 11:57 AM ^
Don't care. Doesn't matter. Hopefully nobody gets hurt playing for no reason at all.
December 25th, 2017 at 12:23 PM ^
It matters. Extra practices matters. More exposure for recruits matters. Another chance to get better matters. Mo Hurst choosing to play with his teammates one more time matters. Definitely hope there are no injuries, but these extra practices are so important, especially for the younger guys.
December 25th, 2017 at 2:24 PM ^
Practice is fine. The game is literally meaningless. You can disagree with that but you would be wrong.
December 25th, 2017 at 2:31 PM ^
is meaningless as far as accomplishments, it sure as hell is not meaningless as far as experience and preperation for the future. Practices have been pointed out but also playing in a new years day bowl game along with just game reps against a power 5 opponent mean a lot. As a fan watching my team play while I am recovering from a hangover New Years Days is great. You can disagree with that but you would be wrong.
December 25th, 2017 at 2:36 PM ^
How is it less meaningful than regular season games? It counts against the team record. And the coaches record. And the Big Ten record vs the SEC.
By your way of thinking, every game that is played once a team is eliminated from championship contention would be meaningless.
Is that your position? If not, you’re talking out of both sides of your mouth. If so, how sad.
i.e. Beating OSU to finish 9-3 would be meaningless if M can’t win the division.
PS - Don’t say literally if you don’t understand what it means!
December 25th, 2017 at 3:06 PM ^
I understand what it means.
What do we get if we win?
What do we get if we lose?
Be precise. Be exact. What are the differences if we win or if we lose? There are none. Meaningless game is meaningless.
December 25th, 2017 at 3:35 PM ^
If we win we get free coconut shrimp and if we lose we get a free bloomin onion......is that precise and exact enough?
December 25th, 2017 at 3:55 PM ^
Tell Peters this is a meaningless game.
December 25th, 2017 at 5:56 PM ^
It's a meaningless game.
December 25th, 2017 at 4:09 PM ^
I’ve seen the coaches and players smile when they win. Good enough for me.
I also enjoy watching the team play under any circumstance.
Oh, M 38 SC 14
December 25th, 2017 at 4:32 PM ^
What do we get if we win? What we get is that we win. That is all we ever play for. To win and not to lose. In a championship game, bowl game, no conference game. At practice, in class, at work. At trick or treating, at checkers, at cancer, at love. Just win.
December 25th, 2017 at 5:55 PM ^
Lol that's the dumbest thing I've ever read.
Win that paycheck , competitor man.
December 25th, 2017 at 6:24 PM ^
Does not check out. Just win, your dudeness
December 26th, 2017 at 4:03 AM ^
A win means another football in the case at Schembechler Hall.
Is that precise enoigh?
December 27th, 2017 at 2:13 AM ^
so it's impossible for anyone to decide what, in itself, has or doesn't have meaning. Perhaps you mean, "lacking implications I consider important."
December 25th, 2017 at 3:16 PM ^
that's never played a down in his life.
December 25th, 2017 at 3:33 PM ^
I'm sure the guys dreamed of one day playing south Carolina in the illustrious outback bowl for the prize of being the 24th best team in all the land.
December 25th, 2017 at 8:29 PM ^
any idea how exciting it is to play college sports, you don't have a metric to appreciate how much fun it is. and that a chance to play a game in a beautiful place with your 85 best and closest friends on national TV with a whole host of friends and family present and then to go on vacation in florida for even a day or two is really an extraordinary college experience. that would be the exact opposite of 'meaningless'.
i'm guessing you never did that, probably never had anything even remotely approaching that athletic experience, but maybe i'm wrong. would be interested in hearing your story on that issue.
December 26th, 2017 at 10:08 AM ^
I played college sports.
December 26th, 2017 at 11:58 AM ^
as a former college athlete i can tell you that i thought all the games i played in were meaningful, though of course i found the ones i got more playing time a little more meaningful.
and specifically as it relates to football, i played until my early 40's, stopping only when we moved back home. i value the games i played in and my kids love watching the videos (most were on TV) to this day. i have fond memories of playing in places like san diego and new york, with tens of thousands of people in attendance, and having the time of my life. even when we lost.
all of that to say i can only imagine you didn't enjoy the sport you played, at least at the college level?
December 26th, 2017 at 2:13 PM ^
I'm betting that it was intramurals.
December 26th, 2017 at 3:10 PM ^
You can be anyone you want to be behind an anonymous account!

Collegiate water polo. I was a field player. I could do a bit of damage in hole if I got d'd by a "Ralph."
I've played a bunch of meaningless games. It's not much fun. Effort level is usually low. People get hurt because theyre not locked in. I can't imagine playing in a meaningless bowl game.
December 26th, 2017 at 9:24 PM ^
in that regard. you can play double-headers in baseball, all sorts of multiple games in a day in basketball tournament, multiple wrestling matches, etc, but only one football game per week. and it sounds like you didn't like your sport that much.
we learned to play water polo in college, taught by one of the guys on michigan's team. it was a blast. i was amazed at how fast he could throw a ball backwards to the goal without even looking. when he'd miss the net and hit the tiled walls behind it, the place would go 'boom'!
