Detroit billboard celebrates Buckeye dominance
Visitors to Michigan's largest city received yet another reminder Thursday of Ohio State's dominance in college football's greatest rivalry.

An Ohio State fan purchased a billboard in downtown Detroit that commemorates the 2,000th day since Michigan's last victory in the Ohio State-Michigan series. The maize-and-blue billboard, seen here on The Columbus Dispatch's Web site, mockingly celebrates the milestone for Michigan.

The billboard, sponsored by friendsofwoody.com, reportedly is located next to Music Hall, not far from both Ford Field and Comerica Park. It will be there for only one day.

Billboards are becoming the most common rub-it-in method for Big Ten fans. Michigan State supporters paid for several digital billboards during the week after the Spartans beat Michigan last fall.

I'm not a huge fan of these displays, and though the billboards can be funny, they come off as a little small time. But the Michigan-Ohio State rivalry runs deep, and no team has been able to celebrate the 2,000-day milestone since April 12 1928, when Michigan was in the midst of a six-game win streak against Ohio State.

If it's a "since last win" streak, then Michigan's six-game streak without a loss (4 wins, 1 tie, 1win) from 1988-1993 is far more recent.

Thats technically a 5 game winning streak...the tie is not a win. I was like Mili thinking that 88-93 was the more recent streak but the B10 network said the streak in the 20's was the last 6er. I would love for it to be a 10+ game streak.

It's a four-game win streak, followed by the tie, and then another win. That's the most recent time (before now) that either team could boast "2000 days since last win" by the other team. If the BTN isn't smart enough to figure that out...

I don't give a fuck about days personally...I care about wins in a row. The billboard and the 2000 days shit is cute but it doesn't mean shit if we lose this year because the streak will end. If those Michigan douchebags want to count a pussy ass tie as a non-loss then they are the "moral victory" pussies I think they are. They may not have lost but they didn't win either. I want to hang 10+ on these fucks...Yes Dave Revsine can be a douche!!

Well, it's still technically correct. I do agree with your "I want to hang 10+ on these fucks" statement...completely. :biggrin:
