Tough Loss, but Michigan is light years ahead of schedule

That team was a paper champion, this one has played hard and smart despite its limited resources
2011 was one of Michigan's most over-rated teams. It beat a 6-7 Ohio state team and a 8-5 Notre Dame team. It lost badly to a 3-loss MSU team and a 6-loss Iowa team. That year neither Michigan nor VTech belonged in a major bowl. Hoke was the hot coach and everyone was feeling sorry for Beamer. Thus two teams that belonged in El Paso made it to New Orleans.
Oh geeze, we couldn't get out of our own way half of that year, and Denard hid a lot of warts on that team. Our QB is doing the exact opposite this year, and we're doing alright.
This team is so different from that team, it's not even close.
How dare you accuse me of name calling, I'm just suggesting that babblefish isn't working out for you. Let's be civil and not go all ad hominem. And a good night to you sir!
Harbaugh > Dantonio. Pretty obvious. At the beginning of the year, everyone was saying how this was dantonio's best team ever and one of the best in msu history. Michigan didn't have a chance. And if not for a miracle of all miracles, Jim would have beaten this "great" msu team in his first year. With none of his own players. This reminds me a lot of 2007 when msu almost beat Michigan in dantonio's first year but Michigan won at the end. After that, msu went on a roll. The tides are a turning again very quickly in Michigan's favor. Can't wait till next year. In east Lansing.
And let's not forget dantonio's absolutely horrible game and clock management and the end of this game and wasting two timeouts at the end to force them to go for it on 4th and 19. Nobody is talking about it now because they won, but dantonio almost really blew it there. Terrible game management.
