Thought this was interesting…

The really fascinating thing to me is there are some sites that were notoriously difficult to be at because the fans were just aggressive towards us, and especially in the early years, Columbus being one of them, where they just were abusive and you had to just stand there and take it and get the flag on TV and go on your merry way,” McCoy said.

Speaking about the barbeque spread...  I have the MGoBBQ recipe for Mississippi Pot Roast sliders just about ready to go for game time.  Put the chuck roast in the smoker at 2AM, and its resting now.  We'll have it with fries and cole slaw at noon.

Fuck Ohio.

Ojabo: "I'm still learning the rules. Why did he spike the ball? Oh yeah, to stop the clock."

Wow, he really is.

Awesome that his parents are there to see him play in person for the first time ever.

They deserve a win.

Ultimately it's the fault of Michigan's athletic department—its policies and negligence are the source of the problem. Currently, it's clear the Michigan AD doesn't really give a shit how many Buckeyes are in Michigan stadium.

Don Canham obviously bears major responsibility for the Anderson scandal, and there's no defending him on that. However, he would never have sat on his hands ignoring the large numbers of Buckeye fans in our own situation—he would have done something pro-active to remedy it.

I mean, they're around but my eyes show about 75-25 split based off the GameDay set. Not as bad as 2019. More out of Towners will make that a stop on the trip so I'm expecting about the same or maybe a hair less than that in the stadium at kickoff. Whenever they are the #2 ranked team riding an eight game streak in the rivalry, they will absolutely travel no matter what.

My eyes still burn from all of the red in 2019.  Buckeyes will pay any amount of money to be there and witness a win.  I said this in another post but if I had the money like some of our rich boosters I would buy every ticket on stub hub and donate to Michigan fans.  I may start a fund for this on home game years.  It is truly sick how much red invades the stadium.
