You will not hate Michigan State at first. Until they finally beat you. Then you will hate Michigan State. That one win is all you'll hear about until your ears bleed. It won't matter if you beat them the next 9 years in a row, that one win is all you'll hear about. Nobody gets more mileage out of one win per decade than Michigan State.

This is from a member of a school that has lost to us 3 years in a row, A school that was very afraid to vote us in the Bug 10, the vote was 8-1 favor of MSU when Univ of Chicago gave an opening and then they lobbied the State Senate to veto the Big 10's vote. A school that wouldn't play us in East Lansing till they were forced to when we joind the Big Ten in 1953 we had something like 40 aways games prior. A school that counts all time NCAA victories against High School teams thsy played in the early 1900's. A team that since the modern area of college football, (most agree 1950 to present) has one shared NC that was stolen from Nebraska!

 

he is very right in one reguard though,,,,, they are the Arrogant Asses of the Big 10!!!!!

Welcome to the board, macspartan! You'll get no argument from us about that "borrowed" 1997 championship Michigan has.

It was touch and go during negotiations last year. Things could've gone either way. But now that we're in the B1G conference I feel like Steve Martin at 2:10 in this video.
