We have to do it again next year

I apologize in advance if this is too snow-flakey. Saturday was amazing. I was fully in a state of BPONE in the third quarter when it appeared that we might just screw up enough again to let another one slip away despite being clearly better. But in the end, talent and determination won out. 

But here’s the thing. These guys haven’t learned their lesson yet. The narrative is that we “barely beat” a bunch of “third stringers”. Keep in mind this was a team that had more starters back then they had when they beat PSU in happy valley the week before. A convenient card to play nonetheless. 

For years, MSU held the mental edge as well as the physical edge. The talent has flipped dramatically, and now it looks like the mental edge is gone as well. Harbaugh doused the flames with a whole barrel of gasoline. Fine with me. Now we gotta back it up. Can’t let them come into Ann Arbor again and take another one. I’m stating the obvious and it’s a year away, but I really hope we keep that laser focus on this rivalry that seems to have been missing. A good start this year, now bury them again next year so we can finally throw some dirt on their graves.
