I think you mean, one team wasn’t good enough to play in a real bowl game with real tie ins to real conferences.

Are you even old enough to have seen a conference championship?

Yes, I can remember what winning a national championship back to back too, something Michigan has never done in your life

No I said exactly what I meant. Michigan went to a tertiary bowl to avoid actual competition

I’m not the one saying we were scared to play anyone. We didn’t play Nebraska because they were inferior team playing in an inferior conference and in an inferior bowl game. Hence Nebraska jumping to the B10.

You flaming idiot. What the fuck are "AP coaches"?

That's right up there with you thinking USC and UCLA are in the Big 12.

you mad big sean GIF


Just be happy Nebraska was given a retirement present of a shared title. Little did we know at the time, it was a little going away present for the entire Nebraska football program. It explains why you fans grasp so tight to it.:beer2:

He was and Scott Frost was right there with him whining about their schedule being too tough -- so much so that they wrote an article in SI about it.

You don't see an article about anyone else complaining their schedule is too tough -- ESPECIALLY a school who gets to play in the lesser division of the B1G.

Okay, cool story. Michigan still hasn't won a title in more than 50 years

Weird. What could have happened between the end of the season (when Michigan held the #1 spot in the coaches poll) and the bowl games?

Oh...THAT's right...I know what happened

"On Dec. 11, 1997, in a Daily Nebraskan article tiled “Osborne announces retirement,” senior reporter David Wilson writes, “emotionally and teary-eyed, Nebraska Coach Tom Osborne announced his retirement after 25 years at the helm of the Cornhusker program.”"

After the season, Michigan #1 in AP and Coaches

Tom Ozborn retires

After bowl games Michigan #1 in the AP but....#2 in the coaches? Huh. Pretty odd. No coincidence spotted at all.

Also bowl games were played.
 
Isn't it the time of the preseason for MnB to. talk shit about Harbaw and UM in hopes it leads to another win over OhioSt?

Sure we did. 1997, you know, the year they gifted Nebraska half a title as a going away present. And going away is exactly what Nebraska has done.:beer2:

OSU will be out for blood this year. With it being in Columbus and the offense OSU will have this year. It is going to be a tall task for anyone to beat them.

Ngjiba-Smith will set records this year if he stays healthy. That guy is an absolute beast.

No you didn't win anything. You were awarded a bit of kindling before football was finished being played that year. You can't even claim has been status it's been so long since Michigan was "impressive"
