scUM annual W-L-T 1990-2000:

1990:9-3
1991:10-2
1992:9-0-3
1993:8-4
1994:8-4
1995:9-4
1996:8-4
1997:12-0

2001: Jim Patrick Tressel hired at OSU.....RIP scUM football.

One miracle mixed in between a whole bunch of mediocrity and if 1997 happened today Woodson gets nailed for taking money from an agent, gives back his Heisman and your 1/2 a NC.

I thought Michigan football was RIP in 1950 or somewhere in that time frame?

I think the rotary club of AA was still handing out fake NC's to you guys every year you beat a local HS back then but I may have my dates mixed up.

I love Nebraska fans. However, Michigan didn't need a hell of a lucky break to win a game. A game you guys should have lost. You guys struggled to put Colorado away. Michigan held that same Colorado team to 3 points that season.

You may have been right with Nebraska killing Michigan. However, how many games have we seen where the other team is suppose to kill the other only to lose that game. Plus Michigan's defense was special that year.

Have nothing but respect for Nebraska. Great program and cool fans.

We don't even let each other apply the transitive property of algebra to football; please don't take it personally if you're held to the same standard.

The 1997 TSUN team was exceptional, but using common opponents to analyze a match-up only works if you actually analyze the performances; not if you just look at the scores.

The ability to hold Colorado to 3 points is not relevant when the opponent is Nebraska. Giving up 24 points to the same Colorado team doesn't say much when it's the TSUN offense you're facing. Similarly, scoring the same number of points on the Buffaloes (27) does not tell us the the teams had similar offenses. They didn't.

If you want to analyze the match-ups and dig into why the two games unfolded the way they did, have at it. You might want to do that via pm though. Otherwise you'll have half the board mucking up the conversation with who-gives-a-shit posts. (Because we really don't)

Their only real claim to fame is "the most all-time wins in college football history" and many of those wins happened over 100 years ago when other schools weren't even playing football.

I wonder who has the most wins over the last 50 years, when everyone was playing college football?

There you go. That arbitrary 50 year span makes me feel so much better about the last seven or eight years. :biggrin:
