Congrats to all UMers🏈 It's good to see the B1G prevail on the national stage.

I've gotta admit I was glad to see the Huskies defense finally firm up, if for no other reason than to make it a "game". The way things started it looked like UM would run 'em out of the stadium!
I was also beginning to worry if Washington's star players including QB Penix would be able to remain standing. A gutsy showing if nothing else.
The stronger and deeper team ultimately prevailed over four quarters.

I've seen a lot of my teams win championships, but this team is the most satisfying by a mile. This was a dominant team that overcame a tremendous amount of adversity to achieve its goals. I'm so proud of the players, the coaches, and everyone associated with the program.
248 years was a pretty good run

Hail to the Cheaters’: Michigan’s national title is legit, and will always be dirty | Opinion

https://archive.ph/2024.01.09-140455/ht ... 60658.html


The fact that Michigan didn’t need to cheat to win doesn’t erase what happened. It will forever be part of the history of this season, and it was all so silly and unnecessary.

Help me out here, how did the accusations against UofM equate to an advantage against Alabama or Washington? I just don't understand the sour grapes here. It seemed like both those teams were simply outplayed. Even the Texas guy acknowledged the Husky's feel apart in the second half.

Outside of Ann Arbor, and the Michigan alumni community, the Wolverines’ national title won on Monday evening under coach Jim Harbaugh will always be cloaked in barnacles, sludge and grease.
Sorry, Michigan, this is the way these things work. Ask the Houston Astros.
Serious question. If the 2017 World series comes up do people really jump all over the sign stealing scandal?

Maybe you're different than me craig, but whenever anyone says Astros and World Series to me, all I can think of is banging on trash cans. I regard them as cheaters and always will.
