Right now. I am a Michigan fan hiding for my life, behind enemy Seattle lines (33rd street) in the Washington state territories. Although I have yet to be discovered, I fear it won't be long. These voracious Washington fans have gathered. They are bringing out their beast's. The most terrifying beagle with large protruding fangs and fire in it's eyes just licked my window. do not have long at all. Just please Michigan family...YOU survive and go tell of our victory, for all to know what was done here. I bid thee farewell.....GoBlue

Will and Mikey are on their way, brother. If anyone can take something away from the opponent and bring it home safely, it's those two.

[@jacquesbreaux4108]

thanx for the chuckle

[@jtmckay2116]

Been a long time coming through injuries and losses and scandals and doubt through all the obstacles Michigan stood firm and was IMMOVABLE in their objectives. This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an IMMOVABLE OBJECT Michigan was unwaivering in their vision and they weren't moved away from their ultimate goal! God bless you all and your families we all wish you the best in the upcoming seasons my whole life I've waited to see this and now it's come you truition 🎉🎉 THOSE THAT STAYED BECAME CHAMPIONS!! THE TEAM THE TEAM THE TEAM, HAIL TO THE VICTORS AND IT'S GREAT TO BE A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE BECAUSE WHO HAS IT BETTER THAN US??? NOOOOOBODYYYY!!!

Jim harbaugh deserves a statue in Ann Arbor

[@user-zj8pz2jd5t]

Best thing about Michigan's title win is fans didn't loot and burn Ann Arbor.

[@PredxMarvel]

The movie theaters in Columbia SC were sold out for the Natty game! I was shocked they were doing the game live at the movie theaters for UofM fans.

Chills, we did it

When is state street going to be renamed to Wolverine Street. Seeing a main drag in Ann Arbor called State St in green and white is ridiculous.

Celebrate today, cry tomorrow as all wins and the championship will be forfeited due to a sign stealing scheme. Was it even worth violating this rule? SMH.

[@Okst_prod]

They did cheat but they still won with out cheating the championship will not be forfeited SMH

[@duhdoy08]

boo hoo. the rest of the big ten (mostly jealous suckeyes) have that as their last hope. you need better coping methods. the cfp is a separate entity from the ncaa. so the ncaa can claim vacated all it wants but the only people who will recognize that claim is michigan haters and the ncaa. y'all can go pound sand. go blue!!

[@jtmckay2116]

You know haters are nothing more than over obsessed fans😂😂😂 let them hate and cry they couldn't get the job done so they make excuses why someone else did😂😂

[@Bwilliams2]

I doubt it

[@jessew1133]

@mbwell lol 🤣🤣🤣 another smooth brain 🤡 that has no clue how the mighty NCAA works. I would refer you to look at what the NCAA did to North Carolina and Miami a few years back. Here's a hint- nothing. UM is basically being accused of the traffic equivalent of speeding. Quit working yourself up into a tizzy over something that's not going to happen 😢😭😱

[@mbwell]

It means the program compromised itself by taking the “By Any Means Necessary” approach when they initiated a comprehensive sign stealing scheme. It was pathetic, wasteful, and embarrassing.
