The dis-respck is fucking unreal @creepycoug

USC is like Ohio State, except there’s no Michigan in the Pac-12. (Sorry, Washington, but it’s true.)

    I could make the case that since 1960 UW is Michigan. Maybe 1975

    I know that we? as fans tend to over rate our DAWGS but no program in America is as over rated as Michigan

    Agreed.

    I'll say this too: Ohio State and USC are NOTHING alike. Very different jerbs. They share little in common other than a winning tradition and ability to recruit well. But the people behind the curtain and the prevailing cultures are super different. Urbs' intensity fits well in Columbus, where football is a religion. There are other soft skills you need to navigate your way around the largest population center on the west coast, and west coast kids are different than eastern kids. The differences are not as pronounced as when comparing southern football factories like Bamers to laid back west coast Pac 12, but it's along those lines.

    Michigan probably trumps us by a wide margin in conference titles. But we have the same number of post WWII natties- i.e., .5

    A lot of Michigan's lore is tied up in the fact they've been winning consistently for a long, long tim. That is a rather boring tradition if it does not include intermittent runs of dominance, which they've not had in my lifetime.

    17-10 in conference titles post 1975

    Michigan leads the series 7-5 which again without looking is probably our best effort by far against a "blue blood"

    You and I are old enough to remember when people would say that you couldn't spell Lloyd Carr Football without four Ls
