My son who graduated last year is off to the University of Tennessee for graduate school. While I M incredibly proud of him, I don't know if I could actually root for a SEC football team. And I don't look great in Orange!

    My parents both graduated from The University of Michigan and somehow my brother and older sister went to Michigan State.  It made for some interesting get togethers to be sure!

    You know they wear orange at Tennessee so they can wear it to the game Saturday, hunting on Sunday, and the work release program on Monday. GO BUCKS!!!

    Ohio may come into Ann Arbor undefeated, but they won't leave undefeated! If Urb's players keep getting arrested, they won't have enough players to field a team.

    GO BLUE!

    The SEC doesn't matter?.... Unless you like champions. We love Michigan, Ohio St, Notre Dame, Oregon..... Easy wins.

    Bob, visit a Tennessee hone game. Fan or not it's a blast.

    Amazing how cocky these Michigan fans but they deserve to act that way considering they've actually beaten us twice in the last 11 years and one of those was the chaos year. Sorry to disappoint you but it's going to be 10 out of 12. Henapple, I am looking forward to getting down there for a game. Heard it's a great experience.

    I feel your pain Buckeye Bob, my daughter became a Gamecock Saturday when I dropped her off at USC. I am a Buckeye as well the only thing worse that rooting for the SEC is that pimple on my ass better know as the team up north I think they call them selves "NOBLUE"

    Michigan's legendary coach, Bo Schembechler.  A man to admire on & off the field at all times.

    Ohio State's legendary coach, Woody Hayes at the 1978 Gator Bowl punching a Clemson player.  A man to be admired??

    Hey, I know it's history.  But it's funny to remember.  Also, I believe punching opposing players is against the rules.  I guess following rules has never been a big consideration for OSU.

    Well at least with kid at UT football won't come up much and you won't have to watch them on TV. UT is thinking about joining the ACC just so they can win some games

    Go Dawgs! UGA!

    If remember back to the John "I can't buy a win" Cooper days, Ohio was 2-10 record against Michigan. It's cyclical, The Great White HOKE has us on the right track. Buckeye Bob, I'm not cocky, optimistically confident.

    GO BLUE!

    When I was at Northwestern they had a pretty good cheer whenever Michigan would come through. It was something like "HEY HEY IT'S OK, YOU'LL WORK FOR US SOME DAY!!!"

    Do you fellow eggheads actually watch college football on Saturday, I am not a fan of senseless bragging, but I am pretty sure that there is a team that is looking (and has a VERY good chance of obtaining three National Championships in a row. Does anyone know how many other colleges have accomplished that? Just Saying ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!! Damn I cant wait.

    Now you have an excuse to be a fan of a real football conference. Although, burnt orange is a bad color!
