I Hate Buckeyes

I remember me and my cousin laughing our asses off at my Uncle that was 100% positive the Buckeyes were going to kick our asses. When we were leaving the Stadium, that was a glorious feeling. I miss those days..

That was my first in person viewing of The Game!  I picked a good one.  Will also never forget the naked guy, with a Block M painted on his back, streaking from the South Endzone to the North Endzone.  An image that was burned into my young mind.  

 

One comment on the actual video: Why on earth is there so much space between the 2 and the 1 on the front of his jersey?

That was an awesome game by Tim, but look at what's happening at the LOS.  You don't see that today...no defensive penetration, lots of holes, defense moving backwards.  Hopefully we'll see some of that next year so Isaac, Green, Smith, and Johnson can get going with a little more aggression.  I yearn for for some success like all of us do so we can again be proud to be a fan!

From the commentators in those clips -- "... all he needs is a little crease."

(a) That line was giving him gashes

(b) Even when the holes were smaller, he was making them

(c) On a couple of those runs I could see Biakabutuka going to a spot where there was no hole yet ... but by the time he gets there a crease opens up and he's through.  Great anticipation.

Some people call football a violent sport.  In reality, it's beautiful how good players do the things they do to make the plays.

In a battle of best names for Michigan football players, it's tough to choose between "Tshimanga Biakabutuka" and "Harlan Huckleby".  Both names have a wonderful sound to them; both players were awesome!

Michigan had no business winning that game. OSU had a Heisman trophy winner and was a juggernaut of a team. T.B ran possessed that day. One of the most enjoyable victories Michigan ever had.

When judging objectively the Eddie George had the 3rd best Season of Big10 RBs. TB was slightly ahead of the NW RB. George had a big game vs ND early in the year and the media stayed with him. IMHO, TB that year was the best back the B10 has had in the last 25 years
