New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was not happy with his alma mater, Michigan, after they were blown out by rivals Ohio State on Saturday.

Tom Brady via @MutCallahan on Ohio State beating Michigan: "Man, freakin' Wolverines. They can't win a big game, man. That was pretty crappy to watch." Brady lost a bet to Nate Ebner for a couple hundred dollars and now has "to wear some ridiculous outfit."

Brady isn't wrong. The Wolverines have now lost to the Buckeyes seven straight times and 14 of the past 15 times in the matchup (though technically their 2010 victory over Michigan was vacated).

It's one of the most dominant stretches by either team in the long rivalry, and Saturday's loss was particularly painful for Michigan fans as it cost them a potential berth in the College Football Playoff. 

While Ohio State fans were left to celebrate yet another win in the rivalry, Brady and his fellow Michigan alumni are lamenting yet another loss.

Brady's used to this feeling, it seems, as he commented "Next year is our year #ivesaidthatbefore" on this Instagram post from LeBron James:
