    We could always turn this into the Big Ten thread.

    Michigan's next season should be really interesting with the new OC. I still think their talent level is a bit subpar due to the '10 class being almost non-existent and the '11 class being mediocre, but if they can win enough games to keep the recruiting from dropping too much, the talent level in Ann Arbor should be good enough to compete for championships starting in '15 (+/- breaking in a new QB that year).

    Next year could go either way, I suppose, as the defensive talent should be very high, and the 5th-year QB is ripe for a great season if the new OC can use him properly. The main concern remains the offensive line, which was incredibly bad this year and lost 2 guys to the NFL, leaving only the question marks and freshmen. The WR corps should be talented, but the only proven guy left is the Tight End who played WR due to his inability to block, but who they're planning to keep trying to play at TE. The OC seems to have been a big problem though so maybe that all gets worked out under the new guy. I'm guessing another unspectacular season.

      I may be willing to compromise. I will allow for the change but it must read as the following:

      "The Official TOSU/UM Era Begins and other Big Ten Schools mussings"


      In seriousness. Thanks for the info from woot and PW. I do enjoy it..

        What's a "mussing"? Isn't that something you do to your hair?

        How about this one:

        "The official thread for tOSU, Nebraska, and other B1G schools nobody gives a crap about"?

        I like it, but it seems a little long. Additional suggestions welcomed.

          Need to at least add Michigan to the thread title - the Wolverines have the best helmet design/logo in college football. Maize and Blue, baby!. Who thought Lebowski could unite Big Tens fans? Won't be long before we suggest a website name change from cougarstadium to something like: HorseshoeBigHouseMemorialStadium.com.

                If this thread gets locked or deleted, we could always twist every other football thead in the Stadium towards the Big Ten. That would be fun.

                        Does it bother Ohio State fans that their coach is the same as Michigan, UM?

                        I'd hate an Oregon coach named UW or OSU.

                            How about the "Michigan State Spartans Big 10 Champions and some other Big 10 schools too" thread.

                              The amazing thing about this thread is that it has so much activity. Who gives a rats ass? Besides dabrockster.
