Michigan State lost a bunch from last year, and isn't in the position to reload year after year after year like OSU is.

3 o linemen (France, Fonoti, Treadwell), Benny Fowler at WR, and on d all American Darqueze Dennard, Isaiah Lewis, Tyler Hoover, Denicos Allen, captain Max Bullough, Micajah Reynolds and I'm probably missing a lot

OSU loses 4/5 of their line and now maybe Miller so I can always dream

Elementary, Middle, and High School in Metro Detroit all had "Michigan-Michigan State day."

I watched a bit occasionally, but going to school at State was what did it.

I miss cheap student tickets.

I've loved college football since before I knew the difference between it and the NFL. I grew up in an MSU household in a neighborhood of Michigan fans, so I rooted for both teams when they weren't playing each other. Eventually I got really sick of my smug-rear end neighbor talking poo poo about State all the time and my father's anti-Michigan influence affected me, so I became a full-on perpetually enraged Sparty fan.

Good old UM smugness.

I realized 99% of the people here have no idea who the hell Bob Ufer was, so I thought I would add something. He was the radio announcer for Michigan football for 40-odd years, and was an unabashed Michigan homer through and through. He loved the game of football, but Michigan football was more equal than others.

Anyway, he died 30 years ago, but some of his stuff lives on.

First, a somewhat sappy but earnest and heart-felt tribute to the start of football season everywhere, since forever. It's worth a listen, as it's only slightly sexist and Michigan is barely mentioned:

And here is how he called a few games versus Notre Dame:

I hope you can push through the partisanship and just appreciate him for what he was: an honest, pure football maniac who loved his job more than anything in the world.

Every college football team in the country, at every level, deserves their own version of Bob Ufer. He was everything that is wonderful about college football.

Can't be worse than Frank Beckmann.

Can't stop lollin at Al Borges http://www.freep.com/article/20140821/SPORTS06/308210124/michigan-football-doug-nussmeier-gardner

I don't think Michigan will have a renaissance after just one year, but it sure seems like dumping Borges is helping already.

I'm paying a lot to watch our game, so please lose that one at least.

hey now, alabama is in fact an institution of higher learning with university educated alumni

an institution that was brave enough to push forward racial issues in 2013 like "allowing black girls to join sororities"

I feel like Alabama is getting a lot of (deserved) negative press about the sororities, which were at least you know, that kind of private exclusion thing that's arguably legal and was handled by the university well when it came out.

Ole Miss has fraternities hanging nooses around the neck of the James Meredith statue during Black History Month.

Greek culture is hosed up and is all about rich white aristocrats.

That is super hosed up. Do you have links? I know their players were shouting hateful poo poo at a play, but I don't think I've seen stories about the university itself being weird.

You were at too many away games. Only the retarded, obnoxious, extremely fat, dumbass fans travel with the team. Coallage Sports is all about cheering on the home team and having fun with friends. No one wants to here your dumb Boomer Sooner over and over again in their home stadium.
