I've never been so thankful to no longer live in my hometown than I am this morning. They actually tore down the goalposts?

Go Wolverines, Go Longhorns, Go Bucks (never thought I'd post that, but Go Anyone and Everyone else but Louisville!)

Yeah Auburn tore down the goalposts in 2001, and I didn't like it then. Granted, we were unranked and UF was number 1, but hopefully it'll never happen again.

I've seen goalposts torn down in home stadiums on a number of occassions.

It often has more to due with alcohol than athletic feats.

Dear Michigan fan,

Please stop calling Ohio sports talk (radio) shows. .....or at least stop smoking crack before you make the call. We haven't been #1 all season for no reason.

Signed,
15 days until the only rivalry that matters

My prediction:

Michigan holds Ohio State to less than 60 yards rushing with their bad ass run defense. Forced to throw the ball, Troy Smith realizes that....gasp....Michigan has a very good secondary and he can't throw the ball to Ted Ginn Jr. 85 times like he did in the Texas game. In a display of greatness, Chad Henne goes 25-31, 250, 3TDs and Michigan runs the ball for 150 yards and 2TD's because Ohio State can't stop the run....at all. Ohio State does get their points but lose 38-27...thus, damaging their National title hopes and reassuring those that knew it all along........that Ohio State was good, but not great, and had probobly the best schedule on paper that we have ever seen.

Michigan has a very good secondary?? are you serious with this?

Michigan has a good run defense, but they're giving up 206 yards per game against the pass. How is that good? That's horrible. And that's before they face Troy Smith, who is 2nd in the Big 10 in passing yds, w/ a 67 percent completion percentage.

A. Gonzalez and T. Ginn Jr. are 1 and 2 in reception yardage among Big 10 receivers. What is Michigan going to do with this??

As for the run game, Mike Hart is good back, no doubt, but I'll take our offensive line and Antonio Pittman (5.5 yds per carry, 10 TDs) any day, on any field in the country.
