The osu is just jealous cause TP is not giving them a NT contentions like was expected in the beginning of the yr. Yes, they will most likely beat Michigan. But if we get a DC that turns the D around then watch out. BTY, Illinois defense was ranked 12th in the country going into the game. How many points did osu score against them? Lol.

"Twenty to thirty of those "points" by illinois were directly attributable to referee errors/missed calls" OK, so now I know that RR and Theo are the same person, or at least, is being fed what to say in his posts by RR. That's the same lame excuse that WVU always, ALWAYS, brought up after a loss. A great, or even good, team will beat an opponent regardless of a few bad calls because that is what makes a great team. Good to see UM win a game. But it'd be even better to see them win convincingly, out-right, and show they deserve a bowl game. So far, based on the postings of the true-blue fans, before these wins occurred, the teams they have beaten were terrible. After the wins, these become major accomplishments. I'm still not seeing the same RR greatness that some of you are seeing. In any event, congrats to UM for a win in the B10 and becoming bowl eligible.

It was nice to see the kids get a Win, regardless of the defensive issues. They played their butts off and earned that victory. Smile.

Oh God, Are we going to count 22 overtime points into the "Greatest Offense ever" argument?

To ThoseWhoStayUofM: You need a reality check. "Our offense is one of the best... in the entire country" REALLY? Total points scored: 350 over 9 games, average 39 per game. SUPERFICIALLY appears good until you realize that 174 (about 50%) of those points occurred against such FB powerhouses Massachusetts, Bowling Green and Illinois. Lets talk again about your offensive juggernaut after Wisconsin and the Ohio State.

What is there to celebrate? Our offense is one of the best, not in the big ten, but in the entire country! This team is bipolar. Yeah... we get it. The only stipulation is our defense is chocked full of freshmen due to injury. Next season, we will have Woolfolk, JT Floyd, and Kovacs all as upperclassmen in the secondary. Mike Martin is back. Our defense is going to be mediocre or better next year (as opposed to absolute garbage this year). Our offense should be better too (which is scary). The only starters we lose next year are: Stephen Schilling, Greg Banks, and Jonas Mouton. There are others but none of them are starters. Obi Ezeh could be counted but Demins has taken the starting job because, frankly, Ezeh has been terrible. This team is losing 3 starters. That's it. You can't tell me we wont be better next year. That... is something to cheer about.
