Who are you to imply they're not trying to do just that?
*Rabble rabble this shouldn't happen* takes...
Just watch the Amazon series to see how it is clearly not "just another game". Harbaugh was essentially a non-functioning shell of a human being after the MSU and OSU losses. I love the crop of armchair warriors criticizing a guy who literally grew up in the program, played for M and beat OSU and now lives and breathes to make Michigan the best in the country. He let's you make your pivot tables and cold calls in peace so leave him alone as he does his thing, too.
It was 35-13 with 11 minutes left in the game when Rudock got hurt.
don't pass muster, WD. Everybody's pissed that we lose to OSU so they assert that the game isn't getting enough attention. It's sillypants. Give us a list of practical measures that giving it enough attention might imply, then let's see which ones are worth a crap, and then let's see if Harbaugh is attending to them. In this meantime. . . sound and fury signifying zip.
Harbaugh and the players literally come out during weekly press conferences and say the next game is the most important game.
When in reality, that's not the truth.
And that's what happens when you take press conference quotes at face value.
"We've got to win this game and there is no game on the remainder of our schedule more important than the one you're going down the tunnel to play today. Now let's go!" -- Bo in his 1971 Iowa pregame speech
Agreed. We should end every practice with a Beat Ohio chant. This is one of the ways I think the program has become too NFL-oriented. Rivalries have far greater importance and impact in college than IN the pros. Act like it.
We exist to be the best, and the only way that's gonna happen is if we beat them.
Columbia University is special and the student body takes pride that their football team doesn't win. Is that kind of where you're going with your sop to mediocrity?
I mean, I could be wrong, but I think it has been emphasized well enough - the problem is that we haven't had a lot of success in it lately. That being the case, you can emphasize something to the hilt and not be terribly successful for a stretch, and as others have indicated, the more pressing issues are definitely elsewhere.
The problem is that Urban Meyer has basically said that he is obsessed with this game, and he's undefeated against us (6-0 at OSU). We say we're obsessed with it and yet we've only won twice (2003 and 2011) in the past fifteen years.
So when that happens it certainly seems like we're not really emphasizing it enough, to some. It can't just be that Urban is insanely lucky in all these matches.
People act like the two teams are even in all ways up to the game..ugh. OSU has had a pretty big talent edge and we know that talent makes a big difference. Michigan has the coaching edge, which has given the team a chance the last couple of seasons. No matter how good the coaching or the game plan, when the game is on the line, the players (talent) have to execute and unfortunately, Michigan's players did not. This coming season, Michigan will finally have top-notch QB talent, experienced WR talent, seasoned RB's, improved OL talent, and of course a top-rated defense with a lot of talent.....and all at the same time. The future is bright!
Didn't we say exactly this last year? And the year before that?
"OSU has a talent advantage, our players failed to execute, but not THIS YEAR! This is the year everything changes! This season, we FINALLY have the players we need at key positions! And we'll be improved enough in our weak areas to win! Just wait and you'll see!!"
Care to make a score prediction, then?
"Michigan wins 24-12."
Ah. Got a soft spot for the classics.
OSU does not get up for MSU. That's why. MSU is not a name opponent. OSU lives to beat Michigan.
Reminder that this is a Sparty troll account
They've recruited well, and you mention the cars before that. The rest of your post sounds like you equate lack of corruption with ineptitude, and I don't think you meant to say that?
