[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] just stopped by to say LOL [/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] don't get hit by a truck tonight.. [/ QUOTE ] you take this stuff too seriously. "get hit by a truck" "hope your dog gets run over" give me a break. [/ QUOTE ] Meh not defending anyone, but being a gator alumni im pretty sure college football (at least the bigger schools) have the most passionate fans in sports (except crazied european soccer fans maybe). so it tends to bring out the best and worst in people, especially after a big loss. i remember my freshman year (spurrier's last year at UF) we lost to tennessse last regular game of the season to rob us of a shot at the SEC and national championship game and I was depressed for a few days afterwards lol.

Re: *** Official Michigan Football 2007 Thread ***
Lines on these games are hard to find but I did find some. I came across -27.5 and -25.5, which for a game like this, is not actually that large. To put it in perspective, USC was favored by about 49 today, while OU and PSU were favored by about 40.
So for a I-AA team going on the road to face the #5 team in the country...yeah, not that large of a line. App State is pretty good.

Given the kind of offense Michigan runs and Lloyd Carr's aversion to running up scores, I would've said before the game that taking App St. +27.5 would've been free money.

Re: *** Official Michigan Football 2007 Thread ***
Just caught the highlights. Man, whatta game, wish I'd seen it. Agreed with those who say App would beat plenty of other 1-A teams; like, oh, say Utah & Utah St for starters. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
I got a little lol at how the App coach was still wearing his headset while being interviewed on the field after. Most "big-time" programs have someone in charge of the coach's headset whom he gives it to as soon as the game ends... [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
