The media sucks period!!! The Big Ten is the Media's favorite!! We all Know that!! Real Huskers don't care!!
Wow.. did you bring your pom poms and miniskirt too?
In reference to previous posts, you're right- Michigan fans aren't excited about this game. Unfortunately for the Huskers, that doesn't apply for the 11 men that will be on the field. Michigan players feel disrespected and feel they have something to prove in light of that.
Also- husker rob- I continually see little thought put into your posts... the likelihood of Nebraska 14-point victory is something of fantasy island.
Michigan comes in a 12-point favorite... the largest spread of all games. Again, Michigan has not lost a game by more than 7 this year: 7, 3, 3, and 4. Two of those losses come against BCS opponents (OSU and ND).
Already I hear you saying "but, but, we beat Colorado by 27 and they were favored by 14." That's nice- Colorado sucks.. much like Indiana and Purdue. Michigan is not Colorado, so you can drop that from your thought process.
I can appreciate all of your personal enthusiasm for your team, but in a realistic light, the Huskers don't hold a candle to Michigan's toughest competition. Michigan doesn't lose games by any considerable margin... practically ever. If you think this Nebraska team is going to surprise Michigan that much- I am sorry to say that you are off your proverbial rocker. You beat Colorado by 27... the same team Texas knocked off by 67 right after. Texas is a great team, but I have never seen a more pathetic Colorado team in any amount of recent history. I'm confident that Clemson will also deliver a significant blow to the Buffs as well.
You have been inconsistent. If the team that showed up most weeks this year is the Husker team you present- you will lose by a significant margin. If the team that shows up against Colorado or Texas Tech-- you will stay in the game, but unless Michigan self-destructs, will also most likely lose.
Michigan has the better team. It's almost insulting to have you insinuate any differently considering we were a combined 3 minutes away from a BCS game. Meanwhile, Nebraska played like a$$ for practically the entire season. You guys haven't played anyone this year and in two days you will have a taste of what top quality competition is.
The Unviersity of Michigan (UM) football team will be ready to play in two days and will defeat Nebraska regardless of how many cheerleaders you pack into that stadium. Goodluck.
