My email box is full of these things! Some are stupid...some are pretty good.
I'm fairly certain that if you win the next one the chant will change from "0 and 9" to "only 8 more to go".
In fairness, the 0-9 record is in bowl games. They are 3-11-1 all time vs. the SEC. Because I'm a stat dork, here is what the rest of the conference looks like vs. the SEC.
Illinois 1-5
Indiana 20-19
Iowa 3-3
Michigan 13-4-1
Michigan State 5-6-1
Minnesota 6-3
Northwestern 2-7-1
Ohio State 3-11-1
Penn State 17-18
Purdue 2-4
Wisconsin 3-8-1
And here is what the teams in the SEC looks like vs. the Big Ten.
Alabama 5-4
Arkansas 1-4-1
Auburn 5-3-1
Florida 9-5
Georgia 7-2
Kentucky 16-20
LSU 7-3-1
Ole Miss 0-3-1
Mississippi State 1-4
South Carolina 4-3
Tennessee 8-4
Vanderbilt 8-7-1
I'm sure the Times Picayune was prepared to print a batch of those only for game attendees, the picture is from the game itself. I doubt they would've passed out any at all had OSU won.
The Dispatch would've probably done the same in Columbus, but then again, with the Bucknut fan's tendancy to burn things when he/she celebrates, maybe not.
At least Michigan wins down there .... problem is, it's always a sub par bowl game

which maybe why they win so much
Even though the killed FLA (no excuse) FLA was hardly the cream of the SEC this year. they were what #5 or 6? Next year though hopefully FLA will be a contender!
Beating Notre Dame 41-14 in the Sugar Bowl.Where was LSU last year when Florida was the SEC team the conference said won the NC for them ?

And MICHIGAN will still kick your asses.
You know,Columbus IS there ... you guys are going WAY overboard with the burning the city down.
I bet there was NO over zelous fans burning or trashing the Baton Rougue when LSU won either, are you guy's all saint's ?
Jimbo
Not just picking on OSU, this happened in Kentucky this year after the LSU game, and has happened in Bolder, Denver, Detroit, etc., after pro team championships. I don't remembering it happening in Baton Rouge in 2004 or this year though.
I just think it's funny how kids today like to burn their sofas and crap, basically destroy things to celebrate. Granted, some scumbags will take any opportunity to steal and loot, but I think that some look at these teams and their victorys as an extension of themselves, like they have accomplished these things. When the team wins it all, there's still something missing for them, so they release this frustration by destroying things, even their own shite!
Then again, maybe it's just the alcohol that makes them stupid.

So will LSU, Georgia, and Auburn if that runningback problem isn't solved.
haha more then likely! But Id love a rematch Mich vs FLA next year national title
