My thinking was that, with all the talent that Michigan had, it's sad to see their program in such dis- array. I would prefer their entire university shut down, all structures in AA leveled, and the gound plowed and salted.
I know that there a lot of Michigan haters out there, and I know that....but they are our biggest rivalry.
I just wanted to watch Michigan come out and be a competitive against Rutgers. That is all that I meant, in my original post

FIFY

I don't know how to judge this game. Nova from PSU shows up and it's a potential blowout. Nova from the last game and this game scares me.

Hahah.... scUM has been giving up plays all year on defense. To use scUM as a example does them no justice because for the 400+ yards throwing again they managed only 26 points. Once again if they can only manage 26 points when going for around 500 yards (in contrast we went for 52 with 520+ against Maryland) then how are they going to get to 35+ points in order to beat us?

Hell Rutgers defense IMO is more of a challenge. Even in that they lost their starting d end.

Unfortunately, you are correct sir.

Big ten really screwed us there. Two bye weeks before our second conference game.

We will have to play the next 7+ games with only 1 week of rest in-between.

Fingers crossed everyone stays healthy.

1 week of rest? Do we have 3 byes this year?

I now understand what you were saying and to think that it's to the level of hoping that Michigan can be competitive with Rutgers in football is just sad.

And fucking hilarious at the same time.

And this is where we are at as a conference when our litmus test is Sparty and an offensively weak State Penn. The conference is truely sad now.

To be fair, our schedule is preeetty damn weak. The trade-off is having to marathon out the stretch.

Although it's been said many times, many ways - bye weeks suck balls.

Game on B1G network?

It's at 3:30, more likely an ABC/ESPN2 split.

Game on B1G network?

I'm not real sure but, I don't think so. ABC/ESPN dealio.

The only tOSU scheduled for BTN:
6:30
PM BTN Women's Volleyball: Northwestern at Ohio State [Not Rated]
Northwestern at Ohio State

But I guess BTN could pick it up?

 

[Buckeneye]

Very good. Thank you, gents.
