UofM’s helmets are pretty ugly, but so are ND’s – maybe they feel ugly because who both teams are, in my mind

What was the biggest OSU point advantage win over UofM? I’d like to know when we surpass it this Saturday.

While I agree that Michigan’s helmets are very ugly I actually don’t know what they’re supposed to be..I’d assume they are the slash marks of an angry Wolverine..do you know what they are?

The awesome, rib rattling sound 100,000 or so fans can make in the Horse Shoe

Tailgating and the rituals before the game outside of the Shoe

Question: What was up with the normal marching band itinerary at the Homecoming Game this year?

And, you can’t talk about ugly without mentioning Oregon. They’re conducting a contest to see how many truly horrendous combinations can be made with green and yellow. These guys can stake a solid claim to the second spot in the all ugly game with UM.

So, here’s my question. Can you tell us how many total yards Troy Smith accounted for in his three games versus “that school up north”?

The answer is hidden in this sentence.

May all of your Buck-1-eye fan-0-tasies come true this week-51-end.

Mr. Pig: It’s tempting to say the 1975 game, one of the first that’s really strong in my memory. Last year’s “Game of the Century” is hard to top, although the subsequent game tends to leave a funny taste in my mouth when I think about anything from 2006. The 2005 game is up there — you don’t just come back from nine points down in six minutes on the road, much less do it in Ann Arbor … and it was really cool to be able to watch that with the whole tailgating crew.

But. 2002. That’s the one. The game was amazing, and it provided a perfect encapsulation of that entire season — as well as the perfect tease for the game that was to follow. And I like that it was before our tailgating routine was … routine. It’s great now, to know what we’re doing, to be prepared for anything … but that season was when the current traditions were all still coming together. So it’s a bunch of things. But that’s the year.

And the coin flip? NCAA Rule 3, Section 1, Article 1 states:

Three minutes before the scheduled starting time, the referee shall toss a coin at midfield in the presence of no more than four field captains from each team and another game official, first designating the field captain of the visiting team to call the coin toss.

It says nothing, however, about what kind of coin is to be used. I’ve found various references to the use of plain old quarters — a Wyoming state quarter was used as the coin flip for the Cowboys’ home opener this year, for example. At the Super Bowl, a commemorative coin is used just once, and then shipped to Canton for enshrinement. And, I know for a fact — because I just watched the tape last night — a commemorative coin was also used for last year’s Michigan game.
