If you could change the result of one game
Which would it be and why?
Mine: we win The Game in 2006. Would be Big Ten Champions and at the very least the BCS title game runner-up if not win it.
Lloyd retires after the season as opposed to a year later.
honorable mention: 1996 OSU. The season was a failure being 8-4 anyways and we did sort of better the next year. I would trade this win if it meant OSU never fired John Cooper or at least didn't fire him after 2000.
See my reply below.
That fucking 2016 game pisses me off. I _will_ die on this hill.
vs. Ohier State in 2016 -- Michigan won that game fair and square; fuck the police; i name a second game to change:
vs. Ohier State in 2009 -- the idea was there just didn't quite execute. Would have been a nice win over Terrelle and company. Certainly they would have bailed out of Clumbus faster.
2016 Ohio State
Both will haunt me for the rest of my life...
2005 NBA Finals Game 5.
Rasheed, guard the inbounder!! especially when it's Robert Horry!!
For this exercise to make sense, we have to assume that all games are silos, in that the outcome of one game does not change the outcome of other games.
Which means that the answer is App State. No other outcome has singulary done more harm to this program. And given that we have not played in any sort of championship games on a national level, there are no other outcomes, in isolation, that would have provided the same level of benefit.
We wouldn’t have won the National Championship though because of Nebraska.

'06 osu
Had to win the game for Bo; and, after that, everything went downhill quickly.
Michigan 28
Washington 27
I puked when that happened.
First thing that came to mind was the horror, but we lost the next week too, so it really wouldn't have done much for the season. As a result, I am stuck with either the 2013 or 2018 basketball title games. Unpopular opinion, but I feel '06 vs Florida in the title game may not have gone well considering that OSU lost 41-14.
