I don’t think it was the loss that spurred it. Rather it was the changes that were forced on the offense.

Finally the staff stopped calling stretch, started getting downhill in the run game, started throwing the ball more, and started to throw on early downs.

We needed the wake up call on offense. It shouldn’t take a loss to make that happen but that’s normally the case it seems

And I think a lot of that was already in the plans because they admittedly held back all season long because of the number of games it would take to win it. It just happened to coincide with a very pissed off Buckeye team that got to use those changes along with some supreme motivation which was a recipe for utter destruction and glory.

Somewhere on facebook: scUM fan posts that he was laughing with his "Ohio" buddy about buying championship gear. He then apparently informed said buddy that "If they make a t-shirt with the schedule and scores, I'll buy one, too" so I posted him the link to that very thing, with the note "I hope you look good in red."
Motherfucker responds with "nah, I'd buy a blue one with 13-10." If this was my buddy, I'd stop being friends with him, can't even walk his own damn talk. Luckily, I don't have any of those "buddies".

I have never understood this "my *ichigan friends" thing.

They aren't your friend. They are nobodies friend.

If *ichigan men were an ice cream flavor they'd be pralines and dick.

Exactly. I was pretty sure that the (5) means they were the 5-seed. But I looked it up just to be sure. They did not win their division with a 10-6 record. The Cowboys did, with a 13-3 record.
So... using this as an example, do *ichigan fans say that the Giants' Super Bowl win that year was illegitimate?
1. They never won their division.
2. They didn't beat the Vikings, who only finished with 8 wins.

I'm guessing that *ichigan fans would be happy to say that it was not legitimate, since the Giants took away one of their hero's Super Bowl wins.

They also lost to New England during the regular season.

What sucks for Michigan fans is that they did build a strong , sustainable program which will be very tough the next 5 years and they won’t have to cheat going forward. yet they refuse to acknowledge the cheating or its affect on their success in 2021 and 2022 And, to a lesser extent, 2023.

In places deep down in their souls which they don’t talk about at cocktail parties, they know they cheated and that can’t ever be undone.

Fuck ‘em . Hell is coming.

DFBIA is legit acting like going 8-5 is better than winning the national title because they ended the season beating Ohio State in a regular season game and Bama in a meaningless 3rd rate bowl game.

It sucks losing to them but if we went 8-5 and beat them and they won the national the Ohio State fanbase would not be celebrating like we somehow had a stake in a championship or something.

It's a satisfying ending to a failed regular season. I will easily give them that.
I felt good about the way 2004 ended even though the season would be considered a failure by any normal OSU standard.

Trying to act like missing the playoffs is totally fine and you didn't want to be there anyway is peak DFBIA.

Going forward, I can see where this new format isn't going to be the death knell to the regular season like I once thought it would. We (all CFB fans) are going to have to come to grips with the idea that your team is rarely going to run the table in the expanded playoffs. That being the case, you need to actually enjoy the process of the regular season more even though the games mean less.

Very much an NFL fan existence.
