Michigan-MSU was the most on brand game in the rivalry’s recent history for the first three quarters. Now our best player is out for the rest of his college career so our lovely, banged up quarterback has nobody to throw to until Cody White returns from a broken hand. This is one of the strangest Michigan State seasons I can remember and there are still five games left.

East Lansing is for sure more conservative than Ann Arbor but Michigan surely has the most 90 year old fans who complain about rap music Most college football fans are awful people.

Scarf posted:For a team who likes to downplay their rivalry with MSU, michigan is going pretty hard in the paint celebrating. I think the program itself has started embracing the hate, especially the players. It’s the fans that are always like “I’m not mad about getting dominated for a decade. It’s actually hilarious to me”

D.N. Nation posted:I made a complete bonkers rear end of myself while watching WLOCP last season and every other UGA fan around me did too, and I'd do it again and again because yeah, dominated for a decade/decades* Yeah but would you do the same if Georgia Tech owned you for a decade? Because that’s the more comparable rivalry.

The interstate rivalry that's bigger than the intrastate one is a weird quirk of college football. I guess because two programs rarely dominate in one state. Michigan/OSU is bigger than Michigan/MSU Florida/Georgia is bigger than Georgia/GT or Florida/FSU (conferences also matter there) Texas/Oklahoma is bigger than Texas/A&M or Bedlam USC/Notre Dame seems bigger than USC/UCLA Even a lot of Bama fans seem to hate Tennessee more than Auburn despite the Iron Bowl being an infinitely more important game most years and Auburn having more success in recent memory.

hobbesmaster posted:OTOH Kentucky’s biggest rival is Louisville because being a trash fire of a football state is tradition. We “lost” and got the UP and all of its mined resources out of it. Also having spent four years in Ohio it is really just Michigan without the scenery.
