Are we a little biased?

No kidding. Kentucky should have won that game like 49 to 0!

Way to start a bowl game, Michigan.. with a 93 yard trek to that first touchdown. GO BLUE!

Congrats to Michigan and Lloyd Carr.
SEC domination no more!!!!

Thank you Sister!!!!! Michigan tried to give the game away numerous times and Florida still didn't win it! I'm quite happy for my Dad and brother though (who were at the game in their Michigan gear) and especially for Chad Henne and Lloyd Carr.

The boy's a Michigan alumnus and this season he made me wake up at 7am on Saturdays just to watch the Michigan games, and, well...you know what kind of season they've had. What a way to send off the seniors and Coach Carr!

The boy is in Fort Myers, FL with 30 of his family members right now (the majority of whom are alums as well). It's pure pandemonium.

It was really, really, nice to see an SEC team go down for once.

We do, but it's not about the posting.

Fun article in the Detroit Free Press today...

DREW SHARP: Which is worse: SEC football or Ohio State football?
January 4, 2008

BY DREW SHARP

It's a tough choice for the true Michigan man or woman.

Do they don sacrilegious robes and support regional nemesis Ohio State in the BCS title game Monday night at the Louisiana Superdome? Or do they oppose The Vested One in a battle against the Big Ten's national enemy -- the Southeastern Conference?

http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/a...OL08/801040321

Also from the article:
The Big Ten is 14-12 against the Southeastern Conference in bowls since the advent of the Bowl Championship Series in 1998.

Easy answer.
The Big 10 followers stick together. I have numerous co-workers who graduated from "the school up north". W we root for U of M during bowl games, and they root for The Nuts at the same time.

I pulled for Perdue, Michigan State, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan and Penn State. I wouldn't have thought otherwise. We respect each other's programs and love their coaches. Anyone who has seen my numerous posts on Joe Pa and Mr. Carr will attest to that. Also, Ron Zook, was born about 10 miles away from my home town.

For what it's worth, Les Miles is from Elyria, Ohio (about 10 miles from my current home) and Urban Meyer is from Ashtabula (about 1 hour from me). They are all products of Ohio Football.

Ohio, the cradle of coaches!

Oop, you beat me to it, Benz.

I was just going to check in to see how SEC"dom" is doing -- you ok, guy? Still with us? What a game.

What's really crazy is that you all now have me rooting FOR Michigan and Ohio State, 2 things I swore I'd never do. I started off just batting back and forth with the Frat-tastic One who kept dismissing Big 10 football as a whole (while his team plays in the ACC -- ?!?). But now, in the interest of wanting to see the SEC eat the enormous egos they've displayed here, I was screaming for the Wolverines and I guess I'll be doing the same for the Buckeyes.

So though I have to hold my nose while saying it, GO BLUE.

ETA: No offense to my sisters from 2 those institutions and the ones they love...

To ALL of the above-YES!
And I too may be forced to think some sort of positive thoughts for the team from Ohio

BTB-From what I heard during the game, both Michigan and Ohio own the SEC.

Thank You Loyd. Many doubted you, but your true fans always stood by you. Thank you for doing Michigan (and Riverview!) proud!

AGDee · #14 01-01-2008, 06:35 PM

I'll be rooting for OSU too. I won't even sing the alternate fight song that a Detroit disc jockey wrote years ago. First I root for Michigan, then all other Big 10 teams... even OSU!

Add Wisconsin to that. Too bad, they could have won their game today, but had a lot of mistakes. I always root for all the Big 10 teams in bowl games.
