My mistake. It was after the Posey celebration flag.

Nope, no "m" sound closing the second word.

Clearly, that is "hoss saff hem."

I don't know about the cursing but I do know I want tress's jacket.

LOL... dont know the first word but the second and third are God and Damn. HAHAHAHA funny how we are going back and forth on something like this. Either way he was pissed it shows that he can let it loose.

But still classy enough to kneel going in at the end.

Had the pleasure of watching this game with a friend from Michigan. I think the most memorable thing he said today was, "The most disappointing thing about this is that I don't even care enough to be upset." Kind of a sad state of affairs.

He also mentioned that they should keep DickRod because next year they could be scary good. When I asked him what that meant, he said they could win 9 games.

When Ohio State walks onto the field in Ann Arbor next year, it will have been 2,926 days since TSUN beat Ohio State.

Imagine, if they win that game, it will be more than 3,290 days when they walk on the field at Ohio Stadium in 2012. Forget Nostradamus, I want to see more than 3500!

would you guys have preferred to go to the Rose bowl? Or is getting to a BCS bowl the same in your eyes? Just curious how it's viewed upon.

Rose Bowl and Big10 Championship is always the first and primary goal.

Now that there is a three way tie, I'm willing to accept a different BCS bowl if all three can win their bowl games and prove the Big10 is more competitive than any other conference.

I only remember hearing that stupid song of theirs one time (on TV) and I think it was after Posey's non-fumble. So even when they got to play that stupid song, it was a misfire.

They did for some reason right before Tater Tot Fivecier punted....I'm still tring to figure out why.

Great win today, as we all expected it to be.

With all of this said, I didn't think I'd ever say that the Michigan game has lost some of it's luster, but after three straight beatings (Dick Rod), and seven straight all together........it has for me. It reminds me a bit of beating a Nintendo game as a kid. The first few times you figure it out, you think you are the [censored]. After a while, you do it over and over and it gets easier each time. I guess I just hope Michigan can make this game more competitive because they are killing the tenacity of this rivalry.

[Michigan Fan] Oh yeah? Well you guys still suck. We have a 13 game lead on you guys head to head. Suck on that you stupid inbred hicks. What the fuck is a Buckeye anyways?[/Michigan Fan]

Did that help at all to shine it back up?

Shut it, gramps!!!

Even after we won 7 straight and 9 in the past decade, scUM fans right here in Columbus have the nerve to mouth off to me about the lead in the "all-time series" and the 90's and John Cooper and 1902...

I say fuck 'em, now, tomorrow, and forever. I hope the streak lasts at least 16 more years. When we've evened it out or taken the lead, then I'd like to see what they have to talk smack about. They would be forced to... you know... actually win!!!

If the guy with the s&g painted Hulk Hands reads this, thanks for lending them to me at Riverwatch to take a picture! That was awesome.

Personally, I am not a fan of the rivalry. I am a fan of Ohio State. I want Michigan to burn in hell, and I want Ohio State to send them there.

Someone had a bad day.

I hope you weren't taking that post as genuine. That's just what I know some scUM fans are saying.

Don't know if anybody else noticed this...but I've been to a lot of Ohio State/Michigan games in my life, both in Columbus and up there...and this is the first time I can recall the fans not rushing the field after the home team wins.

Hell...we even rushed the field after beating Iowa to win the Big Ten, granted that was a much more exiting game against a great team.

But it just shows how bad Michigan has become. The "thrill" of beating them has diminished because they just aren't competitve in The Game or during the season. I still take as much joy in beating them, and am as happy as could be. But maybe the thrill...the "I can't believe we just beat our rival" feeling is less than it used to be. And for that I blame Michigan, and it makes me hate them more.

Don't get me wrong...I never want to lose to them...EVER. I want to win 8, 9, 10 in a row!!! And more! But maybe I'd like to see Michigan come INTO the game ranked in the top 10 or something. How about in 2011 they turn things around and are in contention for the Rose Bowl when it's time for The Game...and then we beat their asses by 30 and win the Big Ten instead of them. Now that would be a thrill!!

A lot of talk today about whether or not it's sad that one team has started to dominate this rivalry. I'm with the majority here in saying I always root for a complete ass-romping of the Wolverines each year, so I certainly think these are happy times. However, that being said, I do think it's sad to see what is happening to Michigan fans (in general). It was just 4 years ago that they had a scary defense, ranked #2, and were demanding a rematch in the title game. THAT'S what Michigan fans should be. Not these lame fans who are happy with 7-5 seasons. I've heard Michigan fans talking smack today about how they shut down Boom in the first half and forced two straight 3 and outs. Really??? Is that what your expectations have stooped to? Talking smack with a 30 point loss to your arch rival?

In my opinion, Richrod hasn't ruined a rivalry, but he has ruined a fan base.
