What Michigan bashing???
by Ryan

Yeah he felt that that is where his faith was leading him and his parents had always wanted him to go there. I think that is where his mom graduated from. Honestly I don't care because if you look at all my articles you will notice I always talk about Forcier as becoming ths starter plus Gardner if he comes to Michigan which I think he will might take over for him. Oh well we will still have a top ten class in a 3-9 year so thats a little comforting.

I realized the BCS is better than a play-off, and decided it needed to be defended. I'd love your input.

Final Big Ten Power Poll... handing out some awards...

Hey Jeff,

It wasn't pretty. Actually, it was pretty gritty. To say that I'm totally stoked for Coach Wulff and everyone in the WSU football program would be an understatement.

There's something special about winning this annual football game.

Very special.

Disappointed about the way things went for Michigan this afternoon. Just like WSU, it's going to be a process. Let's just hope it isn't a long process!

Best wishes to your family and you for a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Now there's something to enjoy my friend!
