Can you imagine if we win?

The good news: we have nothing to lose!! We are at home. They have a 23 game win streak going and have EVERYTHING to lose.

No pressure on us. All the pressure is on them. One loss for them puts their entire season in the toilet. How fucking sweet would that be?? Urban's first two years will essentially mean nothing, and who better to play the spoiler than MEECHIGAN???

If you think we have no shot, think again. Arizona is a four-loss team, and just totally crushed a top-five team in Oregon. I like our chances to squeak out a win.

Let's Go BLUE!!

I mean, I don't like our chacnes..... but I go into every game thinking "we can do this!".

If winning makes the difference between keeping or getting rid of Borges, then.... (I can't say it!)

I just don't see it. I can not imagine a scenario where we win. Couldn't win last Saturday with 4 turnovers.

Especially knowing O$U is going to try to impress the BCS... They're going to go all out against Michigan.

If we win this one, it will be on par with the upset in 1969.

Similar win streak for Ohio State, similar shit season for us....

I would never hope for UM to lose even if a coach stays that I don't like.

Although the 1969 team did win the B1G and go to the Rose Bowl, so you can't call it a shit season.

Touche.

My mistake there.

Yeah this has no comparison to 1969 from our side. That team was one which got better every single week and was playing just as well as OSU for the month going into the game. We were such a big dog because of the score from the year before and the hype machine for OSU, but those two teams were very evenly matched and we had them at home. Once we seized momentum, they could not overcome it.

This year we have been dreadful coming into the game. It is not in any way realistic to expect us to turn that around. Having said that we are not as good- I don't think this OSU team is as good as 1969 either.

I give us a long, long shot chance.

Just can't see our offense doing anything, I see Ohio sending 6 guys every play trying to take Gardners head off, our defense will do well to hold them off for a half at best

If Ohio sends six guys every play, we need to use the screen, the draw, and the QB draw. Use Dileo and Butt on quick slants. We need to keep them honest. Fuck, this isn't rocket science Borgess.

How about we win 14-10, with two defensive scores? The best possible outcome, to me.

Cold temperatures and wind will help make that a possibility.

I'll tell you what should happen first. Take the 98 jersey away from DG and put him back in ol #12. Probably should've happened long already.

Amen to that. If you want him to be a quarterback, give him a quarterback number.

I think giving 98 to anyone was...honestly...a joke.

That being said, if this kid's confidence is as shot as it appears, I'm not so sure we want to pile onto that by taking away his jersey. That could send him over the edge.

At this point in the season, I agree. However, after the ND game he should have been given the old jersey back. Nice tribute and all for that game but let's not go over board with these jersey's....I think it basically just put a target on him all year long.

It just looks stupid.
A quarterback with #98!

I like it.  It is unique.

It wouldn't look stupid if he was piling up wins and in the hunt for a heisman...however....

I like #98 too. I like that it brought Harmon back as far as being talked about. If you only gave jerseys to guys guaranteed to play well you wouldn't give them out at all.
