As a Michigan alum living in Ohio, I can confirm that OSU fans think about Michigan 10x as much as Michigan fans think about OSU. We live in their heads for free. And this win makes it that much better!

What do Michigan fans think about then? Gimme a break dude m, all I remember hearing was fire Harbaugh when he couldn’t beat OSU haha

[@joechriste7052]

Seriously man, I only think about Ohio State the week of the game.

[@rhmbob82]

It is a big rivalry but it just isn’t something we obsess over. Maybe it’s because there are other sports teams in Michigan that have been good and won championships (Pistons, Redwings). Maybe because we have MSU which is also a big rival, albeit not a very competitive one recently. It is always the Buckeye fans who didn’t go to OSU, have no affiliation to the university other than they live in the same state that are the most obsessed. Buckeye fans that didn’t go to OSU talk so much shit. The ones that actually went to OSU are quite civil. Just my opinion obviously.

[@richardptison7735]

@@matthewgabbard6415 The commenter above didn't say Michigan fans don't think about the Ohio State rivalry; his point is that the obsession over this rivalry is greater among OSU fans than it is among Michigan fans. The state of Ohio really only has one major state university football program and so OSU represents the entire state whereas the state of Michigan has two Big 10 schools that have to compete against each other and against the Buckeyes. In short, Wolverine fans have to spread their fanatical hatred between two schools whereas Buckeye fans are free to focus exclusively on Michigan.

[@DeshCanter]

Yes. As I’ve said throughout the Ryan Day era following 2021, when you have superior talent and lose consistently to inferior talent you have a coaching problem. Ohio State consistently punches below their weight class. On Saturday, the boxer decided to stand toe to toe with the bruiser, and the predictable happened.

The Buckeyes are truly the most insufferable fan base in all of college football. That team had no problem running up the score against Indiana to shove it in their faces but cried like babies over the flag planting on Saturday because they felt "disrespected".

[@VictorValiant24]

To be fair, Coach Cignetti at Indiana gave them (& Michigan, though UM didn't beat IU) a reason to run it up w/ his off-season comments. Also, it's Indiana's job to stop the other team from scoring. I'm a Michigan fan, but I gotta take anOSU's side on that one...

At halftime I overheard an Ohio State fan complaining about how bad they were this year because they were only ahead 17-3. The game finished something like 52-6.

But still beat the #1 offense and defense in college football, #2 ranked team in thier crib! Why? Because Michigan is just TOUGHER on both sides of LOS. They play BULLY BALL because of Michigan's culture of toughness which is why many of the top ranked 4 and 5 stars want to go to Michigan! OSU had better athletes and the best team $$$ can buy. But they are SOFT because their coach Crying Ryan Day is SOFT and until OSU toughens up they will always be SOFT. SOFT teams don't win rivalry games, Big 10 championships or National Championships. The TOUGH Teams do... The Team. The Team. The Team! Next year at the Big House will be total domination AGAIN with our #1 ranked recruit Bryce Underwood!!! It will be 5 straight!!! Guaranteed!!!

Don't forget that Michigan was a 21-point underdog (23.5 points when Loveland was ruled out).

Thank you for actually knowing what made the game shift because of the TEAM and the coach running the same play rather than just blaming the fans of ohio for it. That place is sold out every game like the big house. I'm 17 grew up in the great Meyer years. I knew eventually this was coming. Everyone else saying its the fans' fault are retarded. Im also a Browns fan so whos gonna call me spoiled while I put time in a 3-9 team?

I was born and grew up in Ohio. Hell I even went to college at Ohio State. I can say for certain that everything you say about Ohio State fans is 100% spot on. I had a co-worker who grew up in Ann Arbor and she said that while people in Ann Arbor supported Michigan that they weren't obsessed with it like OSU fans are obsessed with the Buckeyes. It gets real bad here. I have a friend who had to make a court appearance once due to a traffic violation and he showed up to court in a shirt and tie. After the court appearance he and I were walking around and talking and people were telling him "You're wearing Michigan colors" because his tie was blue and yellow. He's not a football fan so he wasn't thinking of football when picking out his tie. At the OSU campus they will put a red X over any Ms on the buildings Many people will not call Michigan by name but simply say "That team up north". Also the way the local media hypes it up here too makes you think that terrible things will happen if Michigan wins the game.

Hi. Lifelong Columbus resident and OSU fan here. The first 11 minutes of this is the most accurate thing I've heard said about this particular game and about Day and OSU fans in general. Local sports radio has been totally unhinged. There are a few sane people, but they're of course downed out by an army of psychotics. I think it is definitely in Day's head, but I don't think he is so stubborn that he can't change and get it fixed. He a pretty bright guy. He just in an insane environment. If the adminstration fires him, I'm almost positive we'll be entering our own Rich Rod/Brady Hoke era down here. People don't know what they have until it's gone. On one of the local sports radio shows today, someone raised the question of whether you'd want Michigan's season this year or OSU's, i.e., crappy record and an Arby's bowl or something but beat your rival, or OSU's season where you lose to your rival but get to play for a national championship, and they were actually having a hard time answering the question. It's so dumb here.

[@dodgedforgottenn]

[@legend71]

I agree with this. I am friends with many OSU fans and we get along and are civil but inside I think most of them are insane about this. They have carried the rivalry way too far.

@@kevinjohnston4923 Ok. Players have to make the plays. Kickers have to make the kicks. It was a crappy game, but it the kicker makes two short field goals we're having a completely different conersation. Certainly no would be arguing Day should be fired. They would probably be making the opposite argument - that he finally "gets" the rivaly. That he won with "toughness." You know, what a hard-fought game, gritty, Big Ten, three yards and a cloud of dust, and they pulled it out, etc. They'd forget about the play calling. They'd be saying Michigan has the best defensive line in the game and isn't it so great that we pound it down the field and won with grit and toughness. But the kicker didn't make the field goals and Howard threw two dumb picks and so we have to have this insane, hyperbolic argument about how Day doesn't "get" the rivalry. He's from New Hampshire, he's soft, not a leader, etc. It's so dumb.

Living rent free in Columbus skulls for another year 😁 Go Blue!

[@kenmericle409]

Live in Tampa. Been down here fourty years. A lot of Suckeye fans around here. Just getting my voice back. Was at a very crowded sports bar with a lot of people wearing Red. I've never enjoyed myself more for those 3.5 hrs... I put this game up there with Bo beating Woody in 69.... GO BLUE,,,, HAIL TO THE VICTORS

[@wolves1901]

To be fair the missed kicks were 34 and 38 yards. The winning kick was basically an extra point. I agree with Mark. I want to be in the playoffs. But I also want titles like Steve said.

[@Nick-fz2oo]

We love you Steve 💛💙

[@dougfrench7815]

Well you said it in the stats. The team that wins the rushing yardage wins this game. So maybe we can understand why Ryan couldn't abandon it completely or felt he couldn't win without winning that battle. Even with a loaded receiving core . So while both Mark and Steve said he should have been throwing more, its hard to ignore that rushing fact. You also have to give Michigan's defense credit for pressuring Howard continually. Add 2 interceptions by Howard and you can see why they lost their confidence in the passing game as well. The only team to beat the 85 Chicago Bears defense that year? Dan Marino and the Dolphins with quick outlet passing. I remember because I lost $50 on that game! You can't get psyched out in this game. If you can't run the ball then pass and make the adjustments you need. Know your strengths and go back to them when you need to. You also need to have a core identity. Neither obviously happened. Maybe there is something to be said for not having too much talent..

[@ToddFields-f7f]

I enjoy your podcast and your approach to analyzing games and perspectives. I believe Ryan Day needs to go. And an Ohio guy, whether an alum or not, that gets this rivalry. Thanks for your show.

[@LaundromatMillionaire]

Hail🙌

[@lotswifemusic9965]

If I hear one more Ohio moving mouth say “we deserved to win” or “we beat ourselves” or “it’s not what they did right it’s what we did wrong” I’m gonna…. Laugh a little more 😂 Go Blue!

[@TheBlueTurfdotcom]

I'm stealing your line glad I found you well done.

Finally we have a litter sister to go with little brother.

[@lumberjack7923]

oh FK the best comment ever !!!!!

[@MichaelMitchell-vk9lk]

That’s brilliant and someone needs to make shirts and posters so I could buy some

[@steelershayabusa4550]

Marks by far 1 of my favorite sport guys. Always logical and down to earth. I still can't believe how tight and mentally screwed up Day now has OSU. Should of went no huddle, spread the field out, attack the edges and threw it often. I still say UM needs major coaching changes especially on offense.

[@mikezawadzki8205]

36:55 in podcast is probably the funniest thing i have ever seen. Go Blue!

[@ThatGuy-cb3yv]

A great troll 😂

[@themandownthehall]

Moore wasn't shooting arrows at Day. He was shooting them at the FG kicker after he made the game winner

[@fletchlivesdaily348]

Great vid, Steve. Go Blue, brother!

[@allgopodcast]

Agree with Steve on most of it. But how does he come back from it? Winning 2 CFP games would make many ppl calm down

[@RD22]

Buckeye Nation here. You are correct about the Pressure, but it is what is & it will never change. Cooper & Day can't handle it. Day needs to go bro. We need an Ohio Coach who can handle it ~ Pressure can turn coal into Diamonds or turn you into Ryan Day.

[@Patrick-v9d]

The game that matters the most is playing against Ohio State! The National Championship last year was icing on the cake!

[@MaedarOH]

Best win in recent history

[@CadenFrisbyyyy]

It is just as obsessive for us Steve. Us Michigan fans have the same obsession as OSU fans to beat OSU. You personally just always check out and doubt our team. Then jump back on board after. So you really can’t speak for us Michigan fans obsession with beating OSU. You’re a lukewarm fan, just check in when it’s good and cry when things aren’t going well. Ridiculous and 90% of this fan base will take beating OSU over titles any day of the week. You’re that merely 10% that just picks and chooses when you want to be a fan.

[@Blahzay-m84]

youre a meathead MRN

[@chriswilliams3084]

In the first Rocky, after Rocky knocks Apollo down in the 1st round Apollo's trainer tells him "He (Rocky) doesn't know this is supposed to be a damn show, he thinks it's a damn fight." Sums up Saturday's game pretty well. OSU came for a celebration, and Michigan came to kick ass.

[@KinseeingRed]

Your troll game is on 9000 and can’t be STOPPED 😂😂

[@jcelldogs]

The best play of the game was mullings run in the 4th where he broke tackles and went 20 yards. You could tell that they had his leg or ankle and mullings powered out of it and hurt himself in the process. He was determined to get those yards.

[@bbkyjohnson]

Those of us who are old enough to remember the cooper era are not surprised. It sucks but as a fan of OSU I think nil will hurt these rivalries. As players are continued to be bought for their skills the rivalry will mean less. Look at the nfl the fans hate each other but the players don’t care anymore and I think it will filter to the college level. Congrats on your w. We’ll see you next year. I think it has a lot to do with the success of the previous 20 years. The fans were spoiled and the role has reversed itself over the last 4 years and they never had to learn what that feeling is.

[@Eaa-jz2wj]

I dozed off during the game for a few mins saw the score at the end and thought I was having a dream . So I checked the score on line and was pleasantly surprised, my new medicine isn't fun .

[@parsin4793]

That was classic I am now subscribing off the hook.

[@jasonanernathy5721]

Anyone else think Howard took a huge hit and had a concussion? Im a MI fan and I truly believe he had a concussion and should probably have been pulled.

[@lynnsanford1122]

Love your beginning open your show..

[@michaelringle4527]

Shock and disbelief. I was ok with losing this year, unlike in years past. I knew we werent as good. This was the sweetest victory for me since 2021. These guys just can't get out of their own way.

[@GamingTremor]

Maybe Sawyer thought he could get some golden pants by beating a Wolverine after the game?

[@fredbriggs2225]

Nope. But I think there's a lovely silver choke chain available.

[@lutherodaniels3799]

Jack sawyer is my second favorite buckeye behind Chris spielman. He could have went to Michigan, been a 3 time big 10 champ, 4-0 against this beloved state, won a natty, and life long bragging rights in the state of Ohio for a lifetime, but but instead, he’s 0-4, hasn’t won the big 10, probably not going to win the Natty, and last but not least, will be associated with a defense that held Michigan to 13 pts and lost. I feel for the kid.

[@fredbriggs2225]

@lutherodaniels3799 Add this to it: I heard that he never beat his highschool rival, either.

[@GamingTremor]

@@fredbriggs2225 This is correct. I hope he ends up with the Bears in the NFL.

Crying Ryan third base day freezing like a deer in head light gives me Cutler Becket vibes in pirates of the Caribbean as he walks down the stairs and his ship is getting lit up and about to sink 🤣🤣🤣
