I believe it was UM linebacker Chris Graham who said before the game(and I am sure to misquote because this is from memory):

"Sure they're a good team, they've won 2 championships in a row. But it's not like they are at the level we are at"

How true........

GO GREEN!

Correct - they don't end sentences with prepositions.

BTW - anyone hear how my favorite team, Whatsamatta U, did this past weekend? They were playing Solid State .

And the U of M student body was so distraught Saturday night, they burnt down the university's library.....all 30 books...destroyed!

Holding back the tears, the librarian said, "....and half of them were not even colored in yet..."

At least if you are going to ask me something about a team from North Carolina, could you at least cheer for the team? You did not even know they existed until Saturday. Oh, I forgot, you have Duke and North Carolina claiming to play football. Sorry for the oversight.

I bet Michigan will have more wins this year than both of those schools combined.

Peace

When was the last time North Carolina or Duke Football was on National TV? Talk to me when either team wins more than 3 games in a season.

Peace

Gotta love those upsets. Go underdogs.

If there's a God, Notre Dame will go 0-12 too.

Even if there is no God it would be fun to see.

Once He brings peace to the Middle East, I'm sure He'll get to that first thing.

I guess I should say even if there is no God peace in the middle east would be a good thing too.

Oh, I'm afraid that's not true, my broken hearted friend...not only did I know they existed, I've been to games in Boone and I followed them closely during the playoffs the past 2 years.

Actually, they're basketball schools. Maybe that's a sport UM should look into, not that they've gotten their a$$ handed to them by Appy State!

That won;t change the fact that Michigan was the victim of the greatest upset in college football history, losing at home before over 100,000 in their season opener to the Mountaineers!

Desmond Howard was speechless!!! LOL!

And rumor has it that Bo Shrimpblocker rolled over in his grave!

Did anyone hear? The Wooferines went from #5 in the country to falling COMPLETELY out of the Top 25!

So long Lloyd Carr...we hardly knew ye!

Here's to the kids from ASU!

Wasn't that teen-age beauty queen wannabe who got roasted on YouTube for her less than stellar performance in a contest also from "Appy State?" Interesting that the beauty and the beast both show up on national media within a few days of each other!
