I never place bets on this game because I never know how it is gonna turn out.

I'm really kind of glad that Michigan is also undefeated. If they were coming in with 2 or more losses then I think they'd be even more dangerous because more of the pressure would be on OSU.

It's gonna be one heck of a game. But make a prediction? Not me!

What am I missing here? Is there a new rule that you must agree with Puffy to quote him? Nope, looked at the bottom of the page, no such rule. Search me.

Florida/Florida st in 96 then.

Good nomination...but their matchup was earlier in the season. And though they have a nice little rivalry...it's not on par with the OSU/Michigan one. Good try though.

KronoRed · 11-16-2006, 10:09 AM

In your opinion it's not

Also, their matchup was the last week of the season.

Okay...you're right about the game being the last of the season...great nomination. But I'm not willing to concede that the FSU/Florida rivalry is bigger than the OSU/Michigan rivalry. FSU and Florida are not even in the same conference. Neither team has the history and tradition of OSU and Mich. I'm not saying that this weekend's game is, indeed, the biggest, most important regular season game in college football history...but I do think a strong case can be made for it.

It may seem like the biggest due to the amount of media covering it, but I don't think it is. I don't even think it's the biggest OSU/Michigan game ever. The winner goes to the NC game, but the loser still goes to the Rose Bowl. In the days of Woody vs B*, the winner went to the Rose Bowl, and the loser went home. Tough to beat that.

This is the first time in 103 meetings between these two teams, which is the biggest and greatest rivalry in college sports history, where they were ranked #1 and #2 respectively with not only the Big 10 title on the line but also national title implications.

Yeah, there's no pressure on either of these coaches.

What time is this big shindig today?

Coach Tressel said on his radio show the other day that foot-to-leather is at 3:42. He was also having a very hard time speaking...sounded like he had a chest cold of some sort. Hopefully that has cleared up by today.

I heard from my sister that the field is good, but a little soft. It will be interesting to watch if it comes down to a late field goal.

TeamCasey · 11-18-2006, 03:34 PM

I have no allegiances. I'd put money on Michigan today.

Matt700wlw · 11-18-2006, 05:09 PM

You'd be losing

TeamCasey · 11-18-2006, 05:54 PM

It's not over til I sing.
