Who cares? The went into the toughest stadium in America, played the #1 team, and played their asses off. As a Michigan fan I am very proud of my team.

On an unrelated note, I don't get all the Carr-bashing. The guy's record in big games (other than OSU recently) is superb and he showed alot of class the last few days, unlike whine-boy Urban Meyer.

No way...it's Carr who is the whiner
He targeted Meyer when Meyer has been nothing but consistent with his comments all year.

Meyer has said that he wants a playoff system from the getgo and that winning the SEC title is very impressive in just about every coaches' conference where the question has been asked. I've watched his press conferences all year...nothing but consistency.

It sure beats Lloyd Carr, who talked of not believing in a rematch prior to the Ohio State game. Damn....his tune sure changed.

Im not 100% he ever said he opposed a rematch (Schembechler did).

Even so, this past weekend he never once said Michigan deserved to go. All he said was "I hope we don't get pentalized for not playing." Maybe an indirect plea, but far classier than Urban's complaining/campaigning.
