U of M thread (in the Lions Forum) :)

hate to say this, cuz I love Michigan ... but they might b overrated lol

Purdue - 24
Minnesota - 0 ... end of the 1st Q
Trust me, Purdue SUCKS!

[Kstat]

really...because after they got blown out by north dakota state, I was kinda of on the fence whether or not Minnesota sucked....

What I find amusing is they only lost by 2 at USC.

There have been Internet polls in the past where the Michigan fight song and uniform have been voted the best in the country. I became a Michigan fan just because I turned on the television one day when I was nine, and they were playing Ohio State. Don't like MSU because they aren't U-M, and so many of their fans whined through the years. I don't like all U-M fans, but then I then I realize that fans aren't part of one monolithic group - except Buckeye fans, who all suck. Then again, apparently every fan of the Spartans was or is an MSU student. There's no such thing as a Walmart Spartan.

My daughter (7th grade) was practicing her saxophone this afternoon and out of her room I heard The Victors. I don't remember ever seeing the Michigan State fight song in a band book.

The Michigan fight song is known throughout the country. It is probably only second to Notre Dame's.

Other than fans of a certain school or a conference there are very few fight songs that most people would recognize.

Walmart Spartan is redundant.:-D

It depends who you ask as for which is more popular. Even though I hate ND, I have to say I can see how some people would like that song.

"On Wisconsin" is pretty good too. I honestly don't know what Tattoo U's song is but I probably would if I heard it.

There was a vote somewhere not too long ago. M fight song #1, ND #2.

So... yeah... you were saying?

[Dr. Emmett.L.Brown]

I don't know why shoelace can't just settle down and throw a damn pass
Still it's only halftime and 10 points is not impossible to come back from...

GO BLUE!

[Rocky Bleier]

Yep. This one's a loss. Michigan still can't defend basketball on grass very well.

Because he's not a very good quarterback. Great athlete. Not a QB.
