    Ah I think I've seen that video before! :)

    If Michigan won, would that be the greatest upset in the history of the game?

    I'm sure Bobda isn't in Vegas though taking the points and odds!

    Good to see you back, even if only for a cameo!

    Good to see you back Terry! Oddsmakers are being generous with the 20 points spread.

    As always, records do not seem to count much in this matchup.

    GO BUCKS!

    Hey Don I should have listened to you, I took the Buck's and gave the 34 points in my other Yahoo contest, Buck's didn't cover. :cry:

    Terry,

    Like I said, the Hoosiers always play us tough and down to the wire!

    Buckeye Terry and Don, being a midwesterner, I would like to see OSU in the playoffs representing the Big 10. I think you can get there if a couple of teams stumble and you beat Michigan and your opponent in the B10 championship game. Good luck!

    TOK, I advised Don before the IU-OSU game that if I was a betting man and knowing what I know about IU, I'd be tempted to take OSU and give the points. Shows what little I know. :roll:

    Sid,

    We definitely are going to need one of the to lose or have a very narrow escape, for us to make the playoffs. Could be a very interesting week before it's all over.

    BT,

    Since you have been MIA, you probably missed all of my insightful commentary on M's season this year. To save you the burden of reading post-after-post of my rantings of agony, I am supplying a link to a GIF which I think accurately depicts in microcosm our season:

    Old news. He was put in the dog house for it.

    May be one of the biggest reasons he didn't start the season. That tweet might have been one of the best things that ever happened to us.

    All one had to remember about this series, is that 42-41 win last year in Ann Arbor!.

    These games are almost always decided by a few points either way.

    Bobda, your insights were always one of the high points of any visit to The Skybox......

    Best of luck to your young men. As always, our kids are looking forward to making the visit a memorable one.......

    Speaking of guard dogs.....

    In view of the changing nature of the offensive threat put forth by our rivals from the north, rumor has it that Urban has decided to make some defensive adjustments in that regard.........

    BT, I would like to post highlights of past Michigan victories over the Buckeyes but nearly all of them took place before the invention of high-def TV and the video quality is pretty poor.

    But, I was glad to read today that Brady's major concern re the big game is not to have his team peak too early! Just shoot me.

    http://www.freep.com/story/sports/college/university-michigan/wolverines/2014/11/25/michigan-football-ohio-state/70092900/

    I wonder if before the battle of The Little Bighorn, Custer worried if his troops should have buffalo rather than beef at their post battle victory dinner.

    Don, I think the dogs should get a bye week to rest up for Wisconsin.

    Buckeyes are 10-3 in the 21st Century.

    But before that M was 9-2-1 vs Ohio State.

    Played since 1897 and it took Ohio State till 1919 to get their first win.

    Terry,

    There is no need to do all of that extensive research to make us feel bad! :roll: (first win)
