stevasaurus 22,973 #226 Posted November 11, 2012 Uh Oh...The Tide went out. Maybe Michigan will get another shot at them in a bowl game. :happy-jumpeveryone: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evanloock 224 #227 Posted November 11, 2012 Michigan doesn't want anymore of the Tide! Not enough games left in the season for us to lose to drop that FAR in the polls to set up a rematch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #229 Posted November 12, 2012 Alrighty then, did you guys get Duke fired up about Michigan losing to Iowa again this week? What did I miss? Oh ,Ok, you got the kid from Florida fired up about the wanna be champions Alabama losing to the Aggie's of Texas A&M? I guess it doesn't much matter as Saban's teams will lose ( thats already been done, Iowa beat both him and Urban Meyer from the almighty sec (Bah Humbug)). Duke ol' buddy I am a die hard Hawkeye fan win or lose they will always be my team. What was up with you taking Alabama over Michigan the first game of the year? As much as you toot the Michigan horn (which if I had a team like Michigan or Ohio State I would be doing the same) you took a different team other than you own? Iowa has a vey tough road ahead by playing at the "Big" house this weekend followed by Nebraska the following weekend which is actually going to be really bad to watch. No matter what I will always be a Die -Hard Iowa Hawkeye!!! Go Hawkeyes!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evanloock 224 #230 Posted November 12, 2012 John we'll see how our respective teams finish out the year. History has shown it is extremely hard to repeat as National Champions. The last teams to do so were Nebraska in the mid-90's and Bama in 78-79. This is a rebuilding year for us after losing so many players on defense to the NFL. The Tide fought back from a 20 point 1st quarter deficit. I am proud of the fact they didn't panic/fold and clawed their way back into the game. Oh by the way I'm from Alabama born and raised.

Brrly1 1,146 #231 Posted November 12, 2012 Yes sir, I admire and also respect that for sure. As everyone already knows born and raised a Hawkeye. I remember listening to the radio with Jim Zabel at the helm. WHO-TV and radio out of Des Moines, Ia. There were several times you could hear that station down in Texas,even as far east as Ohio.One of the broadcasts I remember was back when Ed Podalak was the QB. a vey long time ago. I was out back talking with my neighbor about the games this weekend (He's also A michigan fan) and started talking about the tide and he just makes one statement that team can go five deep, and even going down to the fifth person, he would be a starter on any Big Ten team. I just want to understand why this is this way? That's my question for today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John, I had to get my medication adjusted Other things have come along and transpired and reminded me why I hate the Tide so much! Dont worry that wont happen again! As far as the Hawkeyes go........ good luck this weekend A Hawkeye is one of a Wolverines most favorite foods, but have been known to give us da chits so we wash em down with some crushed buckeYe juice! ~Duke 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evanloock 224 #233 Posted November 12, 2012 John I wouldn't say we are THAT deep, however the SEC has an easier time recruiting 4 and 5 star athletes as the hotbed for talent is in the South; particularly in Florida and Texas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,973 #234 Posted November 12, 2012 Correct me if I am wrong, (I'm sure you guys can't wait to do that). but I think I remember back in 1972 and 1973 or maybe 1973 and 1974 that Alabama and Notre Dame went at it two years in a row on Near Years Eve. If memory serves, the Irish won both of those games...is it possible that we will see another one of those games this year?? :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evanloock 224 #238 Posted November 12, 2012 That it would....but Georgia is much improved and they are going to be tough to beat.....I believe Bama will prevail, but the game is in Atlanta so it will be pretty much a home field for UGA. I was hoping for a Bama-ND BCS Championship game....that would be one for the ages!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brrly1 1,146 #248 Posted November 13, 2012 Steve, your just as bad as Duke!!! I thought Illinois was your team? Once a fan always a Fan! I mean the Hawkeyes don'' really stand a chance over the next two games and if they don't win both there will be no Bowlin' this year. What the heck? I am going to take Iowa in both games when I know there no chance in Kaos that will happen. IOWA AT MICHIGAN (IOWA) NORTHWESTERN AT MICHIGAN ST.

stevasaurus 22,973 #249 Posted November 13, 2012 Don't forget John...I had the great pleasure of watching Iowa lose to Northwestern. I am just trying to get back on track after shaking hands with Scott...not easy. It really hurts to not go with the Illini, but they really suck this year. My heart is with them and I hope I lose the pick. My heart is also with Ohio St. having an undefeated season, but Wisconsin needs to win this game to verify their place in the Rose Bowl. Wisconsin is the best "eligible" team in the conference. Michigan is still OVER RATED and LUCKY...you can dance as many Bananas as you want, but sooner or later, their LUCK will run out and they will slip on the banana peel.
