Do these idiots that think their offense is "unstoppable" realize that they put less than 30 points on the board to the following teams: Notre Dame, MSU, Purdue, and Ohio State? That is 1/3 of the season. Two of those teams were total scrubs as well.

I consider OSU's offense to not even be remotely close to unstopable, and we are 11th in the country in points scored (39 ppg)...scUM is 22nd (34 ppg). Of course, you never hear any talking heads bring that up. When previewing the Gator Bowl, I thought the talking heads were going to jizz themselves over them.

Great points. Of course, those points are all lost on your typical UM fan:

I saw mention of their storied 1985 NC in which they managed to find one "selector" vote them as NC.

They lost to Iowa that year and were tied by a 6-5-1 Illinois team.

:lol:

first response to that bit of brilliance

I would take it in a second if I were RR. If he does I wouldnt even be mad. I would root for his sucess.

Knowing RR, he would say know unless he was fired from Michigan.

Ohio State only has 13 hence all of the excuses why ours don't count.

The NCAA recognizes nine (9) national championships for Michigan:

1901
1902
1903 (split)
1904 (split)
1918 (split)
1923 (split)
1933
1948
1997 (split)

The NCAA recognizes seven (7) national championships for Ohio State:

1942
1954 (split)
1957 (split)
1961 (split)
1968
1970 (split)
2002

It's really pretty easy to track this info down: NCAA

The University of Michigan claims two additional NC's (1932 and 1947) that are NOT recognized by the NCAA. LINK

So that's where energyblue came up with 11 NC's, although I certainly don't know why he would rag on Ohio State for claiming "split" titles since over half of Michigan's titles are split (or purely imaginary).

When it comes to major titles (AP and coaches poll), Ohio State leads seven to two:

1942: Ohio State (AP)
1948: Michigan (AP)
1954: Ohio State (AP)
1957: Ohio State (CP)
1968: Ohio State (AP & CP)
1997: Michigan (AP)
2002: Ohio State (AP & CP)

The clown who claims 22 NC's is the typical Michigan fan who can't get over the fact that his team has half a title in the past 60 years.

Some perspective;

-Four of their nine NC's are over 100 years old.

-7 of the 9 were closer to the American Civil War than they are to 2010

-4 of the 9 are older than the Cubs last World Series victory

Some historical milestones that coincide with scUM NC's;

1901: Guglielmo Marconi receives the first trans-Atlantic radio signal, sent from Poldhu in England to Newfoundland, Canada; it is the letter "S" in Morse.

1902: A new car speed record of 74 mph is set in Nice, France, by Leon Serpollet.

1903: Orville Wright flies an aircraft with a petrol engine at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina in the first documented, successful, controlled, powered, heavier-than-air flight.

1904: U.S. Army engineers begin work on The Panama Canal.
