I have thought a lot about this -and I think I am correct. OSU fans want to win every game...so do UM fans. OSU wants to beat UM every year.....and they want to beat us every year!
BUT - here is a key difference! If we reversed roles and we LOST 5 games and BEAT Michigan, we would be furious. Beating Michigan would not placate fans for losing 5 games - especially coming off a National Championship season. OSU fans would be out for blood and wanting to understand how a team is good enough to beat Michigan, but still lose 5 games?
Meanwhile, UM fans are giddy! They clap for Moore at basketball games and seem ok with losing 5 games. In no universe would we ever be so accepting.
I love that they claim this is a "watered down" championship! Anyone with an ounce of intelligence knows this is a gauntlet that NO TEAM has ever accomplished before.
UM fans are dumb.
