Nothing to see here. No games worthy of mentioning.
Who am I kidding? We start this last week of the regular season with a classic, Ohio State @ Michigan, with a side of Kentucky @ Louisville and a host of other games. Hope you are ready and able to enjoy this last Saturday of 2023 watching college football with a few of your favorite folks here at the ol' Sports Forum (aka...Sadovin's)
Cheers, all, and to a blessed day of football!

Ohio State vs Michigan. Have no real love for either, to put it mildly. I definitely prefer Red to Blue, but have almost always pulled for Michigan since Bo upset Woody in 69. Besides, Michigan has the second best fight song in CFB. Reluctantly, pulling for the cheaters today. But won't lose any sleep if it proves that cheating never wins.

not a fan of either team, but preferred UM before Harbaugh... most of the OSU fans I have met online are arrogant snobs... Michiganers a bit more level-headed how about a tie, just to eff things up a bit?

I always thought that Michigan had one of the best looking helmets, until they started to put those stupid stickers on them. The stickers work for Ohio State's helmets but it just ruins the profile on the winged helmet.

No doubt, Michigan and Ohio State both provide reasons not to like them. It does make it difficult for me to decide who I’d rather see win. I’m still pissed that ND couldn’t finish the Buckeyes back in September.
But no doubt, this game has stood apart for decades. I remember watching games with Bo and Woody on the sidelines. The big prize then was the Rose Bowl. And the 2 teams had no lack of hatred for each other. And today, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Last year Michigan won, but both teams still made the playoff. I’d be very surprised if the loser today makes it.
I just watched a video of my cousins (one a Buckeye alum) making their annual polar plunge into Lake Erie. They’ve done that an hour before kickoff before this game for many years. So I guess I’d rather see Ohio State win today. If they’re that dedicated, might as well be happy for them if their team wins.

Just think. Next year they will be able to repeat the game a week later in Indy. Wow. And if they split those two games, they could meet a 3rd time in the playoffs.

So far both teams a little tense on offense it seems. Some drops. Missed open WRs etc. I suspect they’ll settle down soon enough.

I am done...D-U-N!!! And, damn if this Bloody Mary isn't doing the trick! Cheers, and let's do this day!! Edited to add the proof...

McCord better be careful. Should have been a second INT.

McCord needs to sharpen up his game or this is going to be a really long day for OSU.
