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

I think the hate thing between the coaches is overrated, always has been.

Yeah I don't think so. Dantonio loathes Harbaugh and Harbaugh loathes that he's ever lost to Dantonio.

The hatred is strong on both sides.

I'm missing all the typical trash talk between the two camps. Some of the best line come out of that trash talking.

I got this from the freep. I thought it was hilarious.


Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh is adept at revealing little at his weekly news conferences, and on Monday of Michigan-Michigan State week, he took it to another level.

Harbaugh tends to shut down a bit more during Michigan State and Ohio State weeks, answering with some of his tried and true mantras, like, be better today than you were yesterday. And now that the sixth-ranked Wolverines, who have won six straight, are preparing to face No. 24 Michigan State on Saturday at Spartan Stadium, Harbaugh had little to share.

No, its overrated, always has been. The thing is fanboys really get into it and it generates clicks. All football coaches have a certain amount of kayfabe that fools the marks.

With a normal coach you might have a point but Jim Harbaugh is a different sort of person. Remember him going for a 2 point conversion on Stanford's 7th TD in a complete route of USC? I'm pretty certain Pete Carroll strongly dislikes Harbaugh and its not something that's generated by the media and fanboys.

I could see Harbaugh taking it personally and seriously, because he's a rabid lunatic. Dantonio could certainly be playing to the crowd.

Its overrated

[jaadam4]

Is it Mark or Mike Dantonio?

[froot loops]

I'm pretty sure you know. Ha ha.

Bwaaaaa Haaaaaaa!

I'm going to have to pull a WingsFan after reading the weather report for Sat.

50% chance of rain and gusts of 20-30 mph winds. If its a clear day like the Wisconsin game I'm WAY happy with the -6.5 spread but not with that forecast.

What do you mean?

You can let us know what it's like to lose a grand.

I'm taking your advice.

I still say Michigan thrashes them but after last years bull$hit weather there's no way I'd bet that game in the elements. Green is good at stopping the run but TERRIBLE at stopping the pass. Not going to bet a game where the weather is in favor of helping little brother and I'm giving up points.

If we were looking at weather that would virtually take away the passing game (like I think it was last year) but "an afternoon rain or snow shower" should not be a game changer.

Why do babies keep on complaining about rain? Its October, there is bad weather all the time.

IKR?

High winds and rain only helps little brother. That's a stroke of luck for them.
