You can also kiss Ginn goodbye, no way he's coming back. On the other hand we will be just reloading a few starters.
Probably sooooo.Paul Wozniak said:You can also kiss Ginn goodbye, no way he's coming back. On the other hand we will be just reloading a few starters.
People want to play were they know they have a chance to win every yearPaul Wozniak said:With Michigan, OSU, and Notre Dame, and not to mention the other football powers raiding the midwest for talent, how do we (M & OSU) keep managing to reload our talent?
Gee, they use to both go undefeated on a regular basis until they met ....Proc said:Jimbos...could our dream matchup of #1 OSU and #2 UM really happen??? How cool would that be?
No pro team in your area ??? Where did you say you lived ??Paul Wozniak said:With no pro team in my area, Michigan is the only team I have to watch. The matchup with OSU, is one of the highlights of my year. A matchup of two undeafeted teams would be a dream come true. When was the last time this happened? Maybe JImbos could enlighten me. (To lazy to look it up myself.)
I looked back to 1990, I thought it was going to be '97, the last year Michigan was undefeated going into the OSU week, it was going to happen till Penn State beat the Buckeyes the week before the game against the "Team up North "Paul Wozniak said:With no pro team in my area, Michigan is the only team I have to watch.

So it is somewhere in the 70's -80's , very possibly back as far as BO and Woody :

Sorry, but I thought you were just taking about Michigan. In that case it looks like it was '73 when both teams came into the game undefeated. The teams tied that year and the Big Ten awarded the Rose Bowl bid to Ohio State.Jimbos said:Nope,
One team or the other lost befiore the Big Game in each of these years, 92 and 97...
Like I said I haven't gone back any farther yet.
Jimbo
Yes , we were looking for any years that both teams went into the BIG game undefeated....riffjim4069 said:Sorry, but I thought you were just taking about Michigan.

An interesting stat: Last year Michigan finished a dismal 7-5. The last time Ohio State went 7-5 (2001), they followed it up with an undefeated season in 2002.
Hell, The news is stating that he'll probably be back after missing only 2 games.Paul Wozniak said:Interesting thing about 1973 was that the conference voted on who to send to the Rose Bowl, and MSU voted for OSU! Needless to say, this did not sit well with us (U of M). In other news, Super Mario underwent knee surgery. Although M officials were optimistic about the results, it appears he will be out 2-5 weeks. Having been the receipient of 6 knee surgeries personally, I sure hope they go slow with this very talented young man, and let him sit this year out. A huge loss for us, but they need to do whats best for Mario.
I also remember awile back when the last team that went to the ROSE bowl could not go again if they were tied with another team ..... The Bucks were screwed out of a Rose appearance not to long ago.Paul Wozniak said:Interesting thing about 1973 was that the conference voted on who to send to the Rose Bowl, and MSU voted for OSU!
