2022 ttun Shenanigans, Arguments, Surrender Cobras, and Feckless Marmots

[Abenaki]

Sure, you can't fill out a pamphlet on great Ohio State quarterbacks. But, piggybacking on your point, who is on *ichigan's pamphlet? Brady, of course, and that asterisk is acceptable. But who else? Brian Griese? Was he "great"? (Seriously - I don't know the answer to that.) Other than Brady, does *ichigan have a quarterback that started in the Super Bowl?

Griese finished with 19,000 yards, 119 TDs and 99 INTs.

Chad Henne? 13k yards, 60 TDs and 63 INTs.

Jake Ruddock, John Navarre, Drew Henson, Devin Gardner, and Wilton Speight combined for 5 years in the league.

Denard Robinson ran for over 1,000 yards over 4 seasons in the league.

BTW on the point that the SEC plays all crap teams in the non-con. We literally just looked up Bama and while they play 3 crap teams they also play one decent to good non-con game at a neutral site (LOL sly bastards). But they do play someone typically. SCum has taken their non-con to new lows. Which should surprise no one. SCum literally plays right now maybe 3 games. OSU, PSU, and MSU. And unless MSU finds an offensive line and a way to play defense they only play 2 teams that can likely beat them. So they have a 10-2 record wired. And really if they are any good at all they should be 11-1 with at least a split between PSU and OSU.
Do not get me wrong. I expect OSU to run the table this season. The sting of last season I think has focused up the team and I expect them to have a great season.

Elvis Grbac had a decent but unspectacular career with 99 tds -81 ints. He was ready to attend Ohio State but changed his mind when Bruce was fired.

Todd Collins is another but he was below average to mediocre.

Also when it comes to the Dline/Pass Rush

It appears Colorado State just has about the worst oline you'll ever see. Western Kentucky 9 Sacks/13 TFLs & Washington State 7 Sacks/12 TFLS against them

scUM since their 7 sacks/11 TFL performance vs Colorado State. vs Hawaii 1 sacks/2 TFL vs Uconn 0 sacks/5 TFL

UConn was 5/20 for 24 yards. Most of their pass attempts were less than 10 yards and the qbs were getting rid of ball in 1-2 seconds on their pass attempts. Hard to get sacks when they play hot potato. They are awful.

Seriously, we may not know anything until we play you guys. Big ten seems really down. I still need to see more from Penn State. They were impressive against Auburn. However, Auburn took down San Jose State 24-14 where the stats were pretty similar. San Jose State barely beat Portland State. I hate comparing games because styles make fights……but let’s see what happens when Penn State gets punched in the mouth.

I'm shocked the SEC is actually going to go to a 9 game conference schedule. Eliminating that extra free win for everyone (since we all know they aren't using that 4th OOC game for anything but stat padding)

It would be a huge failure for them if scUM fails to get 10 regular season wins at this point. It should be a layup for at least that. But we've seen this before. scUM starts off "hot" in September beating on some scrubs and then goes on to end up losing 3-4 games.

Neither of the teams they've played can throw the ball at all. Lol

Uconn QBs Complete 50% combined and average 4.4 YPA (4 TD 3 INT)
Hawaii QBs 51% and average 4.6 YPA (0 TD 6 INT)

Colorado State is a bit better, their QB completes 71.8% with 5 TD and 4 INT (7.1 YPA), however most of this "success" came against Middle Tennessee State. He spends most of his time on his back, being sacked 28 times in 3 games.

Maryland will present at least a decent threat throwing the ball. Though as mentioned a bunch of times here, Maryland also tends to lay giant eggs and get bent over in games against higher ranked opponents.

Ha! I seriously find this kind of thing really funny.

DFBIA is crying because Urban Meyer is going to be with the Fox "Big Noon" show in AA this weekend.

He will get at least between 42 - 27 troll attempts, per quarter.

That one isn't terrible. Not good, but not terrible.

Hey scumbag.....

michigan co-eds have been placed on high alert.

Just leave them out in the pasture and they'll be fine..

Why would we allow Meyer to come to Ann Arbor to evaluate our team so he can just go feed the information to his son who he left on third base?

Meh... that third base quote again. How original.

He left him on third, but since then he's stolen second.

That's a little funny. But it's funnier that DFBIA thinks that they've really passed Ohio State. When Harbaugh can have a record against Ohio State that is better than John Cooper's was against *ichigan, well, even then he'll probably have to do a lot better before you're allowed to do this. But Cooper's record against *ichigan was 2-10-1, or 0.192. Harbaugh's record against Ohio State is 1-5, or am I mistaken? How about you at least get that to Lloyd Carr level (6-7, 0.462) before you start this talk?

I believe that you are mistaken. This year, Jim Harbaugh is Ryan Day’s daddy.

Same comment as for the one before.

he is a shit ass

If you aren't being hated by your enemies, you're doing it wrong.

I love all of the false bravado, and I knew this would come out after their victory. I hope they keep this same energy, and I hope they come into The Game undefeated, and Day & co roll them by an even bigger margin than the 2021 loss.

Exactly. I think that's part of it.
Here's *ichigan's losses to Ohio State under Harbaugh:
2015 - 42-13
2016 - 30-27 (2OT)
2017 - 31-20
2018 - 62-39
2019 - 56-27

If my math is right, that's 221-126. The difference is 95 points. Divide 95 by 5 years, and it's an average of 19 points per year, with 2 of those years at 29 points. They get 1 win in there by 15 points, and they think that erases those 5 years? Win three more, Harbaugh, and maybe your fanbase can start talking shit.

It's not surprising at all considering they acted the same way after their 11 win team barely beat a not good deflated 6 win Ohio State team in 2011. They swore the "tides were turning". We all know how that worked out.

Not everyone what has played nobodies has destroyed them utterly.

But Minnesota has. Minnesota has been demonstrably more dominant than TTUN has to this point. But the two of them, having played by far the worst two schedules in power 5 according to the Sagarin ratings (and anyone with functioning eyeballs), have dominated their opponents more than anyone else. So, while their opponents are truly terrible; they are much better than truly terrible. Them and Minnesota. So they've got that goin' for 'em. Which is nice.

scUM's stats look pretty good on paper, but if you actually watch the games you can tell there are issues there that may stick out once they start playing teams they just can't out athleticism.

Oline being the main one. Those 3 Dlines of those 3 terrible teams were in the backfield way too much.

scUMs defense is still a giant mystery. The Colorado State game was a clear mirage considering their other opponents did the same or worse than them as scUM.

Uconn and Hawaii 2 horrid offenses aren't going to move the ball much against anyone they play all year.

Would be nice if Maryland showed up to a game like this for once and actually made them look somewhat bad.
