No, no, no, no! It's down with the Spartans!  Go Buckeyes!

[Nazgul Girl]

   Spartans 3-0 first drive.   Actually, if the fooball gods decree that OSU goes to the national champtionship, I will be rooting for them all the way.   But, Michigan State is going to the Rose Bowl, so it's a moot point.  

[flamingo]

I am a born and bred Buckeye. Spent 4 years there getting a BA. Then I moved to Lansing for 8 tears. So when they aren't playing each other, I root for MSU. But, tonite, my heart is with OSU. 
Since they won't be playing each other in bowl games, I can root for them both at bowl time!

and, it's early-MSU can have the first 3 points

[Nazgul Girl]

    Aroooooo !   O.S.U.   has come alive !    Well, if Michigan State can't stop them, then I hope the Buckeyes win the National Championship.  

    Interesting ties to both teams, flamingo.  

[Nazgul Girl]

   That was a sweet touchdown M.S.U. just scored.   We're going to the Rose Bowl, methinks !!!!

[Nazgul Girl]

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the Spartans !!!!

DF is so happy. I hate Ohio state but love Urban and think Dantonio sucks as a coach so basically I slept through the entire game! But I did watch Auburn and MISS.

I want to thank the Spartans from the bottom of my heart     

[Nazgul Girl]

   Hate to disagree, but Dantonio is a great coach (at least for perennial bridesmaid M.S.U. - we like him), but underrated with the #1 defense in the country for 3 years in a row, the Ohio football program is greatly overrated, and as a friend of mine posted on facebook. " You're welcome, Auburn ! "

On behalf of the Boilermaker fans, I'd like to thank MSU for quieting the most obnoxious fans in the Big Ten.  

[Nazgul Girl]

   LOLOL !   We have our uses !  

[zibazinski]

Dantonio is about as inspirational as a wet blanket. His players look as dispirited as he does. Being a jerk to Saban was the dumbest thing MSU ever did.

Well played Spartans, well played. Being from a UM family, just about the only time I will cheer for you is when you're playing Ohio State (or USC, we're also a Bruin family).

   His players play for him. so that's all that matters.   Who cares whether he's inspirational ?   Anyway, we like him.  

    Honestly, Zib, Saban had better places to go, and everybody knew it.  He was and is an excellent coach, but he wasn't going to be around MSU forever.

   Thank you, Jungle Kitten, thank you.  I root for U/M when they're playing Ohio State, Penn State, or, of course Notre Damn.

[NoNamePerson]

Again I say thank you Spartans from the bottom of my heart. Never pulled so hard for a team that I didn't know diddly about!! Good luck in the Rose Bowl - that is where they are going isn't it?

[Nazgul Girl]

   Yes, the Rose Bowl.   I can hardly wait to watch it.   Our financial advisor told us last week that he had already purchased tickets for the game, refundable airline tickets, and had made hotel reservations for himself and his family.   This was before M.S.U. actually won the game against Ohio State.   He must have known something in advance !    I had a feeling the Spartans were going to win, but not strongly enough to buy all of that in advance.

[zibazinski]

I like a coach with energy and who excites his players. It's still supposed to be fun, not the big business it's turned into. That's why I never watch pro football. But I'm glad for MSU because peace reigns in this house!

[zibazinski]

I'm actually somewhat bummed to be out of the country when the rose bowl is playing. Who knows when this will happen again?
