Northwestern 21, TSUN 14 (Final)

[Buckeyeskickbuttocks]

I like how PattyB43 was bashing us and how we barely beat Illinois. Until someone came along and pointed out the garbage time TD.

Someone should have mentioned "barely beating Illinois" is still better than getting shellacked by them.

Fuzzy Math???

On Big Ten Tonight, Pat Fitzgerald just said that after beating scUM, "Our Seniors have beaten every team in the Big Ten."

Ummm, say what???

Ross Lane is a redshirt senior, so he contributed, in practice, to the OSU victory.

It is a stretch, but a pretty remarkable achievement given what you'd expect for a NW player's career.

Terrible post. I strongly disagree. I'd much rather get my teeth kicked into the back of my throat at home that win by 10 on the road.

That Patty chick is clearly of sound mind and spirit.

Michigan loses school-record eighth game

ASSOCIATED PRESS


ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Michigan has lost eight games for the first time in the storied program's 129-year history after Northwestern beat the Wolverines 21-14 today.
C.J. Bacher threw touchdown passes on his first two drives of the second half to lift the Wildcats.
A school-record five of Michigan's losses have come at home in Rich Rodriguez's debut season.
College football's winningest program had already sealed its first losing season since 1967 and snapped a 33-season bowl streak. Now the Wolverines (3-8, 2-5) failed to win consecutive games for the first time since 1962 heading into the finale on the road against rival Ohio State.

I still don't think it's near the level of 1969.

Have to totally disagree with you there, JWins.

scUM had a good team that year. I think only one or two conference losses. Plus it was up at their place.
yeah, our team this year isn't the juggernaught that the '69 team was, but they weren't the train wreck this year's scUM team is. Plus Bo "got it" and RR doesn't appear to.

Moot point anyway, because we aint losin'.

 

[JCOSU86]

Easy money. No way does scUM lose to NW.

No way.

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, thank you. For my next trick...

Note to Pat Fitzgerald: Your true seniors (e.g., not the ones that were sitting on the bench in 2004) lost all four games to Ohio State and lost them by an average score of 51-9.

He's just a tad fuzzy because when he played he dodged us for 2 years while he collected his cute little awards as a junior and senior and wasn't around for the 49-6 apefucking the following year.

personally i liked this part:

And that is exactly why I said an average spread offense team. If this years OSU would have played last years WVU, WVU would have crushed them. They would not be able to contain White, Slaton, and Devine.

IMO they should have beaten them by a lot more than 10 points. With Pryor, Wells, and Hartline you should not get close to losing a game in a mediocre Big Ten, not to say the Big East is any better.

backpedal speed like that typically gets you first round money in the league...

Why do I get the feeling the dick rod's finest work tag will get used multiple times before TSUN sacks up and dumps his ass (and I can think of a few prior game threads, even from WVU last year, that could be updated with this tag).
