The most significant win was 2021 Ohio State.  It was an inflection point for the entire program.

The best win was against SEC Champion Alabama . . . in the CFP . . . in the Rose Bowl . . . sending Nick Saban out to pasture.

Pure gold.

PLEASE DON'T BE IOWA.

PLEASE DON'T BE IOWA.

PLEASE DON'T BE IOWA.

Accuracy is the hardest thing for a QB to learn, and most 50% passer guys never do.  I would not count on it.

Orji may entice us his entire career here . . . but still only comes off the bench for brief cameo appearances the whole time.

There are a dozen more guys we can say that about as well.  Had they stayed, they likely would be Champions of some sort this season.

Pssst . . . you guys, Portal tampering is quasi-legal now.  Have your people call our people.  Let's do this.

He wants to be back for Ohio State.  Given what happened the last time he played Ohio State, who's going to argue with the man. 

First and foremost, I am hoping we beat Ohio State.  

A fourth loss in a row to Michigan will set that program back years.  Yes, they will still get a top coach to replace the inevitably fired Ryan Day - they are still one of the top CFB programs - but that does not prevent the kind of CC turmoil we've seen at places even like Alabama. 

There are lots of other shiny-object programs for NIL / Portal divas to turn their attention to while OSU tries to find it way. 

Beyond that, I hope we make the 12 team Playoff, and take our chances from there.  Who knows, maybe we'll have a CFP playoff game in Ann Arbor in December, against a running oriented Michigan.  There is no team in CFB that would want to face that.

It was hot as hell that day. I felt sorry for our players having to wear the dark jerseys.

PLEASE DON'T BE IOWA.

PLEASE DON'T BE IOWA.

PLEASE DON'T BE IOWA.

You pay way too much attention to Michigan football to get that reference.

I hope we don't waste this historically good defense with a tepid offense.

Per the recruiting rankings, that Alabama team was the most talented team ever assembled. 

And yet when you watch the highlights, Michigan looks like the more talented team.  Which they actually were.

If anybody has a maize Michigan pom pom from the Rose Bowl, I will buy it.

I could not find one on the internet, so I bought a "defeated" Alabama red/white Rose Bowl pom pom.  It's actually kind of cool to have it.  A Mr. Brightside beats Dixieland Delight sort of thing.

I am that obsessed.

So you've just started? 

This game tracked like every single big Michigan loss ever . . . until it didn't.

It's like the football gods were saving up for that one big Michigan redemption, and this was it.

Thank you, Oh tormenting yet eventually benevolent football gods.  You work in strange and mysterious ways.

Jim Harbaugh seems like the kind of guy who's never made his bed in his life.

I hope the NIL money is saved for those who have earned it.

Remember that time when we all worked at our jobs for two years without getting paid, to prove that we were worth it first?

Me neither. 

I will be humming the Rockford Files theme all day now.

Outstanding theme song.  When I got a tape recorder as a kid for Christmas, it was the first thing I ever taped.

Jim Harbaugh is the world's oldest 12 year old.

It's like a cow's opinion.  It doesn't matter.  It's moo.  

Well that settles it then . . . it's time for announcers to learn how to pronounce his name.

We have more Frozen Fours than anybody.  But our time there has not been very productive, to say the least.  This year was an outlier, but most of our failures in Frozen Fours have been in incredibly close games, often in overtime.  You would have expected us to do better just by random luck alone. 

I was rooting against Denver, but I had to appreciate their ability to do to BC what BC did to us, and then some.  They deserved the win.

Imagine if the NFL and NBA and MLB and NHL were run in a way where they still make all of the money they do . . . but fans and doners were expected to pay the players' salaries.

That would be a batshit crazy unsustainable system.

Yet, that exactly describes college sports right now.  Insane.

Honest question . . . where is Ohio State getting all this money?

We needed some puck luck and bad calls to go in our favor to win.  

Instead, BC - who definitely did not need it - got the puck luck and bad calls to go in their favor.  And it happened early in the game.

Forget it.  It was all over when that went down.

Logged in just to upvote.

That's insane. That place is tiny.  Even Northwestern will have too many people for it.

Meh.  Harbaugh was always just on loan to us.  He was always going to go back to the NFL.  I'm grateful for what he did for us when he was here.

We needed some lucky bounces and bad calls to go our way to win.  Instead, BC - who didn't need them - got the lucky bounces and bad calls.  It's over when that happens.

The clock has struck midnight on the team.  Still a great season.

And hasn't been correspondingly called on BC.

Time for a third period for the ages.

Thank you forever, coach.

It will be epic when they lose.

Not our night.

WTF???

Per the recruiting rankings, that Alabama team was the most talented team in history.

I still don't know where UConn is.  I have never even met anybody from UConn, and I live in the Northeast.

According to the official record, nobody won more games in the 2013 NCAA tournament than Michigan.  So that makes us the National Champions in my book.

I LOVE UConn's offense.  I want me somma that.

That was an intense game. BC hit the iron twice in sudden death OT.  Meanwhile, the Michigan winner slipped in through a gap with not even an inch of clearance.  Made up for the previous year.

Yay!

I saw that when it happened.  Nobody was sure what they just saw. 

I don't miss them at all.

Doing it when it counts is what separates being merely talented from being champions.

That was dirty.

Back to back to back Big Ten Football Championships.

Back to back to back wins over Ohio state.

And . . . 

Back to back to back goals against Sparty.

I WANT MUPPETS!

Good things come in threes.
