Harbaugh is proven again to be nothing but a petulant loving child, and while OSU will be let into the playoffs because ratings, they are going to get completely loving curb stomped by Alabama. I can dig it

Remember the last time OSU snuck into the playoffs and was supposed to get curbstomped by Bama? Let's not count our chickens just yet. This time Bama really is going to dunk all everyone, though. Also yeehaw Nebraska shitcanned their special teams coordinator which was a thing that absolutely needed to happen.

The best part is his whole loving team of Hoke recruits is graduating with rivalry goose eggs, like there's no way UM is this good next year with 18 seniors plus even more draftees leaving

As a Michigan fan, I'll admit that the main reason they lost is the turnovers and lovely playcalling in the 2nd half. Harbaugh and co. completely turtled and went away from all the plays that were working. Don't even get me started on the Peppers Wildcat formation that had nothing going for it. The loss absolutely falls on the coaches and players. That said, the refs did have an influence on the outcome, which is always a shame no matter which way it goes. The earlier picture that "proves" Barrett got the first down is a joke, totally photoshopped to skew the perspective (take a look at the 15 yard line compared to the hash marks). I came across another image that seems to be the best angle of the play I have seen. Assuming this is not manipulated, it does seem like Barrett was short by a few inches. Certainly not something that could have been turned over using the replay, but disappointing to say the least. https://mobile.twitter.com/montyEarnold/status/802927937569914880/photo/1

You absolutely cannot complain about a spot being "a few inches" off when the line judge was looking at the back of the player. Spots are going to be off by a few inches dozens of times per game. This is something that will never change in football no matter how good the officials are. The only thing Michigan fans should be pissed about is the fact that ABC/ESPN couldn't get a good angle on an important fourth-down play.

It's not that egregious of a spot. If the ref missed it then it was by maybe 6 inches. We all have an understanding that spots are rarely exact and if replay isn't conclusive then there is nothing to be done. The missed PI on Michigan's possession was worse but everyone is making a big deal about the spot on 4th down because it's the last thing they remember.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure Ohio State is in the playoff no matter what else happens (and I'd put Washington in with a win over the B10 champ, but that's just me).

Henchman of Santa posted:Actually we like to talk about Michigan losing any time it happens no matter how our team is doing, because the collective meltdown of people like you is hilarious every single time. It's quite a meltdown indeed, especially the parts where I commented on the offense losing the game and it still being a good season. I'm sure if the roles were reversed, Ohio State fans would have calmly accepted the loss and not reacted at all. Same if MSU lost to Michigan in such a fashion. MSU's endless chip on the shoulder inferiority complex even after you dominated the rivalry for most of a decade and went to the playoff last year has to get boring eventually, right? No? Carry on then, I'm sure getting plastered by everyone again next year will lead to lots of opportunities to talk about Michigan instead of your own team. And no, obviously the spot was way too close to argue about it being ruled either way, the awful DPI calls are the only thing really worth complaining about. I also hate that the Big 10 literally does not call holding on o-linemen anymore, but over the course of the season that surely benefited Michigan a lot given our lovely o-line. It says a lot about how good Michigan and Ohio State were defensively that they played as well as they did all season given how slanted the rules are against defense now.

The reason Michigan fans are so mad about that call is simple; It would have been an incredible rivalry defining moment for the game to end on a matter of inches like that after an amazing day of defense by both teams, but especially Michigan given how last year went. If you had asked every Michigan fan how they would have liked the game to end (and ruled out 500-0) that would have been about perfect. So of course they had an emotional reaction. I agree that there was no way to overturn it, and there's just as much chance the call was right as wrong. Marquis de Pyro fucked around with this message at 01:13 on Nov 28, 2016 |

Your entire lovely brand of trolling is completely based on playing up this stereotype. I assumed you were self aware (given your Lions fandom) about this and having fun with it, but sometimes I wonder if you're actually just one of those 'fans'. I mean, your coach literally went for 2 late in the game, removing the tiny .00001% chance you had to win the game, solely to "prove a point". Your team spends half the offseason tweeting Michigan players about the upcoming game and how tough they are. Your QB makes up a story after the game about how a Michigan player admitted MSU was the tougher team to try to save face. Your coach never shuts up about a lack of respect from Michigan and blah blah blah It's sad. It reminds me of Brady Hoke insisting on calling OSU "Ohio" while getting clowned on them every year. Except it never ends, even when you're winning.

michigan state had its worst season since john l smith was coach. they were atrocious. however we're all still allowed to greatly enjoy your blowhard coach embarrassing himself on national television. That doesn't mean we have some secret envy for you and your school, it's how rivalries work you dummy.

Isn't the first down marker a few inches before the yard line? That appears to be where the ball is. Why don't they go put a camera man sitting on the down marker, or just wrangle the stupid cable cam to go there in 100% of 4th down situations.

Fundamentally, every MSU fan and player's greatest wish is to become Ohio State. The equivalent for Michigan is to beat Ohio State. Both of these dreams do appear to be impossible, but at least one of them actually relates to something their own team is doing, not how they relate to their rival.
