Josh Mann Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Ohio State is playing with their food waaaaaaay too much so far. Hawaii has nothing and by all rights it should be 28-0 at least right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nature Boy Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Michigan State has your classic inferiority complex when it comes to Michigan. See also: Texas A&M, Oklahoma State, Auburn and N.C. State. I have a good friend who went there so I sometimes get a glimpse into the "rivalry" when he posts this crap over and over again during football season. They also insist on calling them "little sister." For college sports, I am just an observer with no rooting interest but I'm a diehard Boston pro sports fan. I rarely (if ever) take shots at the Yankees, Jets, Lakers or Habs via Facebook. Trash talking is something you do in person, at the stadium or with your friends who root for the other side. College sports fandom seems like a weird animal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Michigan State definitely deals with the idea that, even after winning 7 of the last 8, they are still seen as little brother. And that Michigan is much much more concerned with Ohio. And, honestly, even with the series off right now, a lot of Michigan fans see Notre Dame on at least the same level as Sparty. But Michigan does desperately need to beat Michigan State some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 They should take on the powerhouse that is Mid Michigan Community College and see who the real JV squad is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Michigan does desperately need to beat Michigan State some. But isn't that always going to happen? Michigan is the older school, they have the longer lineage, more championships, more wins and are just more well regarded in general. They're stuck with the little brother tag and no amount of clever graphics and jabs will ever change that. Having a fanbase obsessed with attacking Michigan just adds to them being a jealous little brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Jesus. That jet sweep to Drake with King Henry lead blocking should be illegal. Is there a DB in the country who wants to set the edge against Henry? I think not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 I feel like N.C. State has been every bit as good or better than UNC most of my life. I hate to say it but college basketball is more of a niche thing in 2015. Football is where its at and N.C. State doesn't really have to take a backseat to UNC.

Craig H Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 It was pretty awful. Ankle turned completely around and the announcing staff said they wouldn't replay the video of the injury. Best case scenario is a bad ankle sprain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Good win for Michigan. Turning point: Oregon State punts late in the 2nd quarter, buries Michigan on their own 2. Buuuuuut... there's a flag. The Beavers have to punt again. Second time, the long snapper air mails the punter, causing a loss of 48 yards. Michigan takes over on the 3 - an improvement of 95 yards thanks to penalty and snap - and punches it in. Instead of 10-7, Michigan went up 17-7 and never looked back.
