Hockeytown Red Wings 245 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 You delusional Wolverine fans and beating us twice in one year. Lloyd better just worry about beating us once a year first. JT's in his head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
betterREDthandead 58 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 Has anyone noticed what a phenomenal week this is for football? Check out the matchups: Florida State-NC State: the Wolfpack upset Boston College a couple weeks ago and FSU is vulnerable. Purdue-Iowa: the Boilermakers are back on the rise. Clemson-Wake Forest: time to find out if Wake is for real at 5-0 so far. Navy-Air Force: leg 1 of the race for the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy. Washington-USC: the Huskies are dangerous again. LSU-Florida: separation game in the SEC. Texas-Oklahoma: the Red River Shootout! It's the closest thing the rest of the country has to Michigan-Ohio State, in terms of interstate rivalries. Michigan-Michigan State: poor, poor Sparty. Tennessee-Georgia: another separation game in the SEC. Oregon-Cal: huge Pac-10 matchup. First week of the season where the pecking orders will really start to be established. This is gonna be a good Saturday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why are we even talking about this? U-M isn't going to play OSU twice. Don't worry Lloyd is only worrying about beating O$U once this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted October 6, 2006 The line on the Michigan-Michigan State game ranges from 15.5 to 17.5. That's pretty brutal for Sparty. Stanton probable, but still injured, and no Ringer should make it a no contest true blue win. That's what I'm worried about. If it's one thing you learn watching Michigan ball... beware the Spartans' upset capability. I'll say U-M by a late FG in Saturday's showdown--24 to 21.

mannysBETTER3434 1 Report post Posted October 6, 2006 I'm nervous for this one, and I don't know why. Everything on paper says it should be a U-M blowout, but MSU is like 10-2 against top 10 ranked teams since like 1996 or somethig. I'll say U-M 34 MSU 24 maybe even closer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mannysBETTER3434 1 Report post Posted October 6, 2006 I'm sorry but Stanton is a real dumbass for saying this the day before game day. "In my house it [Michigan] is known as the University of Puke." "I'm looking forward to going down there and playing in an adverse situation and playing in front of the quietest 110,000 people you could ever play in front of." Do you know you've never beat U-M and are playing the No. 1 D in the country? If you say this after you win I don't have a problem, but before its pretty stupid in my opinion.

betterREDthandead 58 Report post Posted October 7, 2006 "In my house it [Michigan] is known as the University of Puke." Huh. That's funny considering it's MSU that wears green. Ooooh, by the way, how bout this for a score: Arkansas 27, Auburn 10. Didn't see that one coming. Opens up a spot in the Top 5 if Michigan can keep winning.

mannysBETTER3434 1 Report post Posted October 8, 2006 Eat that Stanton you choke. You and Kirk Herstreit should go drink a beer because you both finished 0-4 against the good guys in your career. Too bad USC escaped a close one. I think the rankings should be OSU, U-M, FLA, and then USC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Too bad USC escaped a close one. I think the rankings should be OSU, U-M, FLA, and then USC. Unfortunately people think West Virginia belongs too. Auburn lost, so the rankings will probably just bump everyone up one: 1. OSU; 2. USC; 3. WV; 4. UF; 5. UM. West Virginia is what annoys me. USC and Florida will eventually lose.

Stanton probable, but still injured, and no Ringer should make it a no contest true blue win. Well they won by 18 so the odds makers were right on - you could call it an 18 pt blowout- Lloyd never runs the score up. No real pleasure in beating a disheveled Spartan team, except if Stanton made those dumb remarks, he then deserves this. Personally, the Tigers were more exciting today - kicking the Yankees' ass is more fun than kicking the downtrodden Spartans' ass imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mannysBETTER3434 1 Report post Posted October 8, 2006 WV should NOT be ahead of U-M, USC, or AUB (even thought they lost)! They play NO ONE except for UL, which isn't even comparable to the Big 10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was at the Big House for yesterday's game, and it was actually really cool when they annonced the Tigers score. U-M/MSU fans were all going crazy togehter. For that short moment no one cared about either team just everyone celebrating together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlakChamber 8 Report post Posted October 8, 2006 I'm guessing Stanton was just trying to get his team fired up. Obviously didn't work. The Tigers winning makes up for the Spartans losing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mannysBETTER3434 1 Report post Posted October 8, 2006 And I predict that Michigan will have a strong season. No Big Ten title but a solid Capital One Bowl berth. 3 loss season for the wolverines. Ohio State, Notre Dame and Michigan State. One more strike and your out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
betterREDthandead 58 Report post Posted October 8, 2006 Michigan jumped to 4th in the writers' poll, behind only OSU, Florida, and USC, though they only moved to 5th in the coaches poll. And for some reason, there are 2 insane writers (probably in Morgantown and Charleston) picking West Virginia #1. Looking forward to the BCS standings coming out, I think it's next week or the week after. The computers will put West Virginia where they belong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mannysBETTER3434 1 Report post Posted October 8, 2006 (edited) WV is such a joke. Pretty much all their games are against teams with the talent of Indiana (besides UL). They did beat Georgia last year though. Edited October 8, 2006 by mannysBETTER3434 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hart said he would have gone back in the game, but it was already under control so there was no point. No doubt Hart will be playing against Penn State, and probably Manningham too.
