Dammit! Why can't Penn State beat Michigan?
Jesus Pissin' Christ will someone please arrange a sit down between Joe Pa and Jim Tressel so we can finally see Penn State beat Lloyd Carr's suck ass Wolverines.

4. That's what I mean
JoePa needs to learn from Tressel how to beat Michigan.

8. joepa's scared of michigan for some reason
Edited on Sun Sep-23-07 02:22 AM by Halliburton
I don't know why, but lloyd carr seems to have his number. joepa played right into michigan's hands with his conservative offensive gameplan. it's no wonder that we lost 9 straight to them! we should have beaten them two years ago if it wasn't for the damn referees!

oh well, I hope you guys can beat michigan and prevent them from embarrassing the big 10 once again in the rose bowl.

6. Because Michigan cheats!!!
They hold, pass interfere and no one does a damn thing about it. To top it off, that Hart was F***ing down, and everyone knows it, but they didn't review it and gave Michigan the winning score. They might as well had added time to the clock and ignored the out of bounds again.

Biggest damn cheats in college football

7. Refs at Michigan Stadium games ALWAYS favor Michigan
I remember when they gave Santonio Holmes a 15 yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct for diving into the end zone between two Michigan defenders.

I was really hoping that we would get some revenge for that travesty that took place two years ago, but our offense was just too inept

10. On a side note...
it seems like absolute bullshit for Michigan to start the season with 4 consecutive home games. Could you imagine an NFL team having that kind of advantage?

18. The style of play thing is what the 2 losses were about... PennSt just plays regular, not spread...
... Similarly, Princeton can be counted on to knock 1 or 2 far "better" teams out of March Madness, due simply to the style they play.
