I wasn't around during his time so I can't say I'm a fan of his per se.

I've only been a Vikings fan since 2003 when I started going to school there, so he's about the only thing I know about them from before that time!

you bet, but getting outcoached in a game doesn't by default indicate that your team is not better than the other team. it indicates that you done ****ed up.

It wasn't the coach who was chasing Henne all over the place in the 3 rd quarter. It wasn't the coaches shutting Hart down. Jarrett does not coach though he did school the Michigan's DB's.

which once again brings us right back to the one really bad quarter.

they got outplayed, most obviously in the 3rd quarter. i'm not trying to say they deserved to win the game playing like that. i am just saying that that game was not a true representation of the Michigan squad of this season, and that Michigan is a better team than USC even though they were not in the Rose Bowl.

I mean, I watched it and everything people are saying here is stuff I've already seen. I saw them get outplayed. It's not news to me. It's simply an opinion based on a season-long analysis of Michigan vs. how USC fared this season.

No amount of rehashing it will make me think that USC is the better team just beacuse they won the other night -- just like we would not purport that Oregon State or UCLA are better teams than USC just because they won.

It was one game.
