Beat little brother

Submitted by turtleboy on November 2nd, 2019 at 2:50 PM

I personally cannot wait until we host that dirty coach who in no way is even remotely competent at coaching football and his team. I want them to play bush league in an inevitability lopsided loss, I want a shutout, I want us to go for 2 every time, I want booing, I want the students to say even more than "you suck bitch," I want a rushing rutger, and I want their late last-minute desperation drive for a shred of "respectability" to get stuffed by the defense. I cannot fucking wait for this game. Fuck sparty, Go Blue.

Not overly worried about it.

1.) Whereas Maryland in their regression still maintains a modest offense, Sparty does not. They are anemic, and don't know what to do against a competent offense.

2.) Joe Bachie is not playing.  That's a significant blow to their defense.

3.) Frankly, we look MUCH better at home.

Time to take Little Brother to the woodshed.

Keep in mind some things about Harbaugh and MSU...

1.) 2015 game: MSU was still relatively at the peak of their abilities (though cracks were beginning to develop) and they STILL won that game on a fluke play

2.) 2017. Our offense was FAR worse than it is this year, and we were one dropped ball in the final minute of the game from winning. Moreover, MSU's 2017 team was better than this years in production on both sides of the ball.

So the only way we lose is if we decide to not really play.

Excellent gameplan??? They couldn't cross the 50 yard line in the 2nd half of the entire game!

O'Korn had a wide open receiver with less than one minute in the game left, and he just plain dropped it. Had he caught it, he would have walked in, game over.

2015: "outgaining" on yards doesn't mean anything if you don't have a higher score. Take away the fluke punt, and it's game over.

Dantonio's wins have been due to luck, not skill.  And now his luck has run out. 

I'm guessing you're not really a Michigan fan.  Sorry to hear that.

The morning pair on 97.1 sports talk discussed early this week that Dantonio may be telling his players in his pregame speech that he is retiring after the season thus firing little brother them up.

Anybody on that team that doesn't already know that is too dim to be much of a factor. Still, that's probably what he'll do. It will backfire, as he's already lost this team and Harbaugh will plan like he did for the Irish.  It would not surprise me if we put a 50 spot on them.

No mercy.  Harbaugh knows he can help show Dantonio the exit and a blowout makes it even better.  State has quit on its season but will show up for this single game... foot on the gas right out of the gate with no letting up. make them quit this game in the first half.  Otherwise if it’s close at half we will be in for a battle no matter how great the D plays (like last year)

Exactly.  This win is very important because when Dantonio is gone after this year, his legacy won’t be so much the Rose Bowl victory, B1G titles, the wins over OSU as it will be his winning record vs Michigan.  Those clown fans don’t care a lick about him being around during the dark age of RR/Hoke.  I really need to be able to point out he had a losing record vs Harbaugh.  If this 2019 result is an embarrassment for Mork that makes it even better.

To be honest, I’m over calling them little brother. That implies we are related. And at this point, I think we should just disown them as part of the family. They are too much of an embarrassment.

Time to put a nail in the coffin of that disgusting trash program.  Mork had a nice run and it coincided with UM wandering in the wilderness after BO's death.

A reversion to the mean has occurred, and this will be the final blow to Mork, reinforcing the realization that UM's annual floor is essentially Sparty's ceiling (8 win team), and roids, disrepekt, and letting criminals run around East Lansing so they can compete in football has come to an end.

Harbaugh has restored UM to what it once was, and Sparty can go back to hoping for the 1 in 4 or 5 year upsets in their Super Bowl, which we were accustomed to for so many decades.

Unfortunately OSU has become a juggernaut beyond anything that it ever was, and the focus will now have to be on catching them in recruiting and on field play, once we put little brother to bed for good.

Their greatest memory from the Harbaugh era is literally one of the luckiest plays in CFB history...a completely self-inflicted mistake that, while nice for historians to play on video, proves exactly what they are....a team grasping for hope, luck and up against the odds.  Time to put to bed the ghosts of 2015, the ghosts of the RR and Hoke era, and expose once again to the nation what we all already know -

Sparty is a regional football program, had a nice little run, and the situation has now been normalized again with UM running the state as the national program.

Bye Mork
