Let’s see, who won today? Oh, that’s right. Among others, it was the _Buckeyes_. And who lost? Oh, yes, it was the _Wolverwines_. To water fowl. Yes, Michigan lost to Oregon. The _Ducks_. OSU won. Michigan lost. OSU beat Bowling Green. Not a ranked team, but since Michigan (formerly #5) lost to a number 22 ranked team… That squealing noise you hear is Michigan sliding down the ranks. 😉 ---

And yes, I meant to spell Wolverines like Elmer Fudd talks. Really, I did. ---

If only there were some way to resovle this matter on the playing field, instead of on a message board. If it could just, somehow, be arranged that OSU and UM would play against each other, so we could see which is the better team. If only…oh, wait! November 22nd, Ann Arbor, Michigan! See you back here on 11/23, **ivylass**. 😃 ---

Michigan lost to a very good team. Ohio State barely beat a team that should not even be playing big time football. I would hardly call this something to crow about. And why has OSU slid from #1 to #4 in the rankings without losing any games? ---

And the Cringin’ Tide of Alabama lost to _gasp_ Northern Illinois yesterday. Har,har, har. See, I can laugh because Auburn didn’t play, and therefore didn’t lose…😃 ---
