I don't care if they are hte defending champs, its not even D1. (not a knock on the rest of their schedule)

I don't have any data but I imagine a team like Appalachain St is better than the bottom of the MAC, a few teams in Conference USA, WAC.

Last 3 years they have played LSU, Kansas, NC State all three were losses but the Kansas game was the only one where they weren't competitive.

Yea, how many of you won? In the end UofM has proven they can't win the big game. You guys wont get to a national title till Lloyd is gone. I dont undertsand why you dont even play anyone real good in non conference like others are doing. A program of your nature should be trying to schedule someone big like Va Tech or LSU or someone in non conference. Yea you got Oregon, big deal.

You can get there, but it doesnt matter if you dont win the game. BTW, I actually do respect your posts and don't understand why ppl give you so much ****, its a solid debate and brings up some intriguing info.

Losing to USC in their backyard is nothing to be ashamed of. USC is in the midst of the most dominant 5 year run in college football history. They have a 4-1 advantage in high school all-americans over UM. They finished #1 in recruitng 4 of the last 5 years and narrowly lost out to Florida for their 5th straight. They return 10 starters on defense,not to mention a heisman candidte QB with three 5 star WR's at his disposal. Its ridiculos how much talent they have!! Barring major injuries you might as well hand them the title in 07.

ya i agree that losing to USC is nothing bad but that particular loss was embarassing. Afetr all the garbage UM talked about how they should be in the title game and how they were going to whip on USC and then to have dwayne jarret and USC hand them ass on a silver platter was one of the more embarassing rose bowl performances

Depends on your criteria. The average rating of USC's players was way higher than Florida's. Florida's merit was that they signed several more players. They essentially got the bump for adding five more 3*s than USC did.

EDIT: Just found the average ratings. USC: 4.22 Florida: 3.89

We're pretty excited here in NC to see ASU take on UM. We're hoping for the upset of the century.

One of the top MLB's in the nation last year, 4*. He didn't have the grades to go anywhere. MSU seemed to be the school that he was headed for due to his great relationship with

There is nothing like that under the ticker, nor on the Pantele updates on his profile. Go back to your hole, ****ing schtick.

Ok, I apologize to Golfnut. I thought he was referring to Pannell.

He'll forgive you.

Names are pretty similar. I'm just grateful that he's dropping premium info.

I keep coming back to this thread thinking we have a new recruit and nothing...

better pull his head out, as he is getting pwned by the entire big ten.

Maybe he should hire Booby Williams to recruit for him and lock down some 4/5 stars.

He has the 7th best class in the Big Ten and only has 3 commitments.

I made the exact same mistake earlier in the thread with the Pannell and Pantele thing.

This is getting a bit worrysome.... I'd be happy if Dantonio pulled in a few C and D plan recruits right now, but still recruited A and B plan recruits hard.
