Parties like it's 1979
It’s the pedigree. His dad beat out Jesse Daigle AND Chad Loup.Did the same against us. They just don't trust Howard at all, which makes you wonder why they wanted him.

Bad coaches are bad for bettors. Napier, Lanning, and above all Cignetti did what you’re supposed to do when you’re a big favorite in game 12 against a rival that’s beaten you several times in a row. Not Ryan Day.Very true
They don't.
That's what I was thinking of was your game where they wouldn't pass until late.
I figured they would figure out Mich has a top 3-4 DL in the country and a undermanned secondary and play accordingly.
But, that's Ryan Day.
He wanted to win this in a Harbaugh style TBH.
Run some tempo and throw to the future pro bowlers and then grind run with a 10-14 point lead.
McCord is right where he belongs.Oh, and I've been on his bandwagon a lot this year...
OSU wins that game with McCord imo.
I was at that game. I thanked George Teague afterward for taking TO down, but it was still funny as hell.The only time I long term remember anything like that was TO doing it because it was actually creative back then
OSU wins that game with McCord imo.
NopeBest rivalry in sports.
All is fair in love, war and OSU/Michigan.
Makes me think of Will Farrell on Bob Newhart’s lap in Elf.ohio wins with Andy Ried quarterbacking.
Day reminds me of the last couple years of Calipari at Kentucky, putting his own ego above winning. Calipari detested what he called the "Basketball Bennies", or fans that had opinions on personnel or strategy. It was borne out last year when Calipari was bringing Dillingham and Sheppard off the bench, despite the fact that they were both projected lottery picks. Analytics suggested that those 2 were 2/5 of the (by far) most effective 5 man lineup. It was brought up to Calipari countless times, but he refused to use that lineup more than about 10% of the time, and there were 5 other personnel combos that he used significantly more often. He was more than fine avoiding that lineup even though using it clearly gave him the best chance to win. He was more willing to lose his way than win using what he determined to be someone else's approach.Very true

Day trying to shove it down Michigan's throat so he can prove his manhood is a very similar situation to Cal IMO.
Good morningGreat comparison
