Question is straightforward. I'll start with mine: Michigan I despise everything about Michigan except for Denard Robinson (hard to root against him, he's humble with a million dollar smile). Perhaps it's the saying "We dislike most those who remind us of ourselves". And as much as I hate to say it, Michigan is a mirror image of us. College football blue-blood, top 5 overall in victories, heismans and NC's etc., the Rich Rodriguez and Bill Callahan situations are eerily similar (offensive wizards who were brought down by subpar Defenses), similar block M to our Block N logo (just a blue version) to name a few. But it goes deeper than that (1997 comes to mind). Their fans are arrogant. In my interactions with Michigan fans online and in-person I get the sense that they thumb their nose at our tradition and contributions to college football. It seems like every Michigan fan I spoke to in 2010 had no real excitement or concern about us joining in the big ten, basically revealing their thoughts that we would be a push-over in conference play. Virtually every Michigan fan thinks that they would (not could) have beat us in 2012 if Robinson/Gardner played qb against us, and that they would have scored a touchdown on that drive that Robinson got hurt. I really thought that OSU and Michigan would be Texas and OU respectively before we joined. However, I find it is the complete opposite. Every single OSU fan I talked to in 2010 was genuinely excited to have us in the conference, acknowledging room for multiple powerhouse programs. One of my buddies, who is a Michigan fan, after the Michigan 2011 game (after which they truly felt they were 'back') posted a facebook status: "I remember when a man named Bo Pelini said he had no interest in the Michigan job. No one in Michigan wanted you anyways and today we showed you why" and it really set me off. I feel like we will meet OSU in the CCG on a semi-consistent basis for years to come and that those games will be hard fought to contribute to a respectful rivalry a la OU towards the end (I realize NU and OU hated each others guts in the 60s-90s). But I think the right to represent the legends in the CCG will almost always be decided by NU and Michigan, and consistently having these stakes for our games will make our feelings towards the Maize and Blue get downright nasty like Texas. Refute some of my points if you feel differently

Michigan had a great Junior Day and two of my favorites are listed below. I have never been more excited for a look-a like thread. Taco Charlton, defensive end Jake Butt, tight end It needs to August already. This offseason stuff is for the birds...

I have reservations for one room for two nights (check in Nov 18 check out Nov 20, two double beds-non smoking) at the Ann Arbor Holiday Inn Express for the Nebraska vs. Michigan game. The hotel is located just 2 miles south of the University of Michigan!! Now we can't go and we're past the cancellation date to get a refund. Would like to transfer our reservation to someone else so we can get our deposit back. Contact me by email or text (see below) and I will give you our confirmation number. Then you call the hotel, give them my name & the confirmation number, and tell them that you are taking our reservation. You then make the reservation with your credit card. This is all ok with Holiday Inn Express--they were the ones that walked me through it. The cost of the rooms is $229.00 per night (plus taxes) and that is the rate you will pay. The reservation manager told me that they were recently charging $259.00 a night until they sold out. Please email or text me at 402.575.zero-six-seven-five. Thanks, Dave.
