OSU fans predict blowout win over Michigan

Submitted by Decatur Jack on

Apparently our brethren from Buckeye country are quite confident that Meyer is going to destroy Harbaugh in Columbus. Here are some choice comments and predictions regarding the Game which I was able to find.

The Game has a real chance of getting ugly. Ohio State could win by 3 or 4 TDs. I hope it's even more.
O'Korn threw for 59 yards and failed to complete a pass of more than 10 yards downfield. No way they beat us. tOSU 53, TTUN 3.
Urban's coming for you Harbaugh. 42-13 all over again bitch GO BUCKS
Remember when Michigan was favored to beat Ohio State? Yeah, neither can I. Remember when they actually had a team good enough to beat Ohio State? Yeah, neither can I.
Bucks win, 68-0. Book it. Fuck Michigan.
The Game is in Columbus which of course means we will crush those assholes. Upset? NOT HAPPENIN BABY! #gobucks #ohiostate #fuckmichigan
Michigan's offense is weak as hell I just can't see how they beat us. 59-0 tOSU wins
52-17 Buckeyes
Peppers is overrated. How many butt-kickings does he have to take from Urban before people wake up and realize that?
Ohio State wins and will keep beating Michigan every time for the foreseeable future
Dude have you seen M's recruiting class? Complete joke compared to what we got comin in, FIVE STARS FOREVER BABY GO BUCKS
Harbaugh can not hold a candle to Urban Meyer. This is a proven fact.
Must be tough for those TTUN fans to know that they have such a great coach who will never beat Ohio State
JT gets 6, count em 6 TDs against Michigan, we win big 73-6
Honest Prediction: Xichigan starts strong, scores early TD. They never score again after that, Bucks win 63-7. Cue the meltdown on mgoblow!
Mike Weber. Runs. All. Over. Michigan. Final score is 45-0.
Ohio State 39, Michigan 3. Not worried bout it, yawn
Game Day in Columbus for The Game? OSU never loses
How many national championships does Harbaugh have again???
I am excited for this game mainly to listen to those mgobitches cry on their podcast afterward
No M fans are more deserving of witnessing a blowout by Ohio State every year than Brian Cook and his slappy Ace, their twitter posts are beyond arrogant
Anyone worried that we're predicting a win too early?
Noooope, tOSU 49, TTUN 7.
hahaha sorry not sorry
Trump won and so will we. Ohio State 42, Michigan 10.
I love Urban Meyer so much. O-H!
Going to be hilarious watching the GameDay folks talk about Michigan's chances to win and then we end up beating them by 47
Who's their quarterback again? An injured Spieght or his backup
actually i'm hoping they put shane morris in there just for the lolz
Good guys win big. 49-6 Ohio State all day every day
JT Barrett's big chance to impress the playoff committee and Heisman voters
Chances Harbaugh's QB gets sacked upwards of 8 times? I'd say that's fairly likely lol
This is going to be the greatest Game of all time, in that we beat Michigan 42-7.
First play is going to be a huge bomb over the top for a Buckeye TD
Urban is a true hero. Harbaugh is a bitch.
I'd love to see their twitter feed when they are down 21-0 in the first quarter
Hey Peppers wanna know what winning championships is like? Watch us whip you on Nov 26 and you'll see
It's 5 o'clock on a Sunday morning and Michigan is still going to lose to Ohio State
OSU, and its not close. Michigan’s offense is hot garbage
I've learned to stop questioning Urban Meyer. He is 4-0 against Michigan. Probably will be 5-0 after The Game next week.
Guys TTUN fans actually think they have a chance
Time to put those fucks in their place
YOUR COACH WILL NEVER BEAT URBS
My 4yr-old son says Ohio State will win by 5 TDs. He's a good lad
Do-it-all Peppers does absolutely nothing in loss to Ohio State, will be Sunday morning's headline
Urban Meyer 50, Jim harbaugh 0. Because that's just how we roll, bitch
Oh Michigan you are going to be so disappointed that you just lost another one
Make Predictions! Ok, here's one: Michigan goes down 86-0.
Remember all those narratives from M fans who said 2015 was going to be just like 1969? Guess that didn't go so well
We have JT Barrett, Mike Weber, Nick Bosa, Curtis Samuel, and like 11 other five stars. Who do they have again? Another class about to finish 0-4 against the Bucks
Nothing feels better than hearing the sound of a Michigan fan crying
Chances Michigan wins in the Shoe? Less than 1 percent.
I watched Michigan play and I can tell you their offense sucks
--> Can their D stop us?
---> No. (+25 likes)
Ohio State 13, Michigan 12.
Just kidding, Ohio State 63, Michigan 12.
I'd like to say maybe Michigan will get a field goal but will they even cross the 50?
What's going to feel better? beating michigan or getting to the playoffs
--> doesnt matter, both are happening
Seriously Michigan, just admit it, you can't beat us.
Let's make Jim Harbaugh cry. He deserves it.
We are so far ahead of them in talent that I just can't see how they can keep up
I know what I want for my birthday on November 26. Go Bucks

Just in case you weren't properly motivated for hate week. (I don't care if you say this was a waste of time, I did it so you didn't have to.)

I predict that pretty much most of their fans are going to act like the vile assholes that they are on Saturday, regardless of the result of the game.

That prediction is always correct.

Yeah, after seeing this Michigan is definitely going to win. 

OSU got outplayed and nearly lost to 3-8 Sparty. They aren't any better than we are and our defense is better than any unit they put on the field. If we get average play by our QB, we will win.

No. Its yet another indicator that they aren't THAT good though. Just like losing to Penn State and struggling against Indiana, Northwestern and Wisconsin were good indicators. They are no better than we are this year. In fact, we're likely the superior team if you lined it up and compared position through position.

Who cares. Talk is talk. Yes, they have dominated us since 2001, so let them be overconfident. I'm sick of losing to osu, all Michigan fans are sick of losing to them. Just win The Game. I have faith in this team to do just that.

Poster is not wrong about the cheating. It was real and any assertion that it didn't make a marked difference in recruiting and on-field outcomes is silly. Lloyd Carr might have had even more success had he, too, been able to support via a blind eye player compensation with weed, tats and money. That said, it happened and they have won big in the last decade (rather like Michigan in the 90s). I do tire of the relentless apologist on the board for tOSU transgressions though, as if the cheating didn't matter or have outcomes. It did matter.

Harbaugh's first year at Michigan coaching Hoke's players and I even think there was a Lloyd Carr recruit on that team. They had an insane amount of NFL draft picks. I hope that is what they think every year will be like and I hope they have that confidence every year. It will make their defeats that much more delicious.

this is still a bunch of hokes players..... if it's good enough to say Hoke was a great recruiter and didn't leave the cupboard bare, it's not good enough to say he is playing with hokes players before a difficult match up with a hated rival as an excuse to a loss

That's not the point. Hoke's players, the ones who actually played significantly, were coached terribly and it takes a great deal of time to unlearn bad habits. The OL, RBs, QBs had no idea what they were doing. In addition, everyone had to learn from scratch Harbaugh's system. That's something Peppers can do in the span of an offseason but the average player, no way

It's always possible. The team did not look as good the past two weeks as they did before. I think if Speight starts we're in better shape. Our defense is unlikely to give up many points, so a several score win is not likely. I also think their offense is in for a really tough game against a defense that remembers last year and is probably eager to make sure the buckeyes don't run the ball this year.

A small minority of fans for a team with one of the largest fan bases in all of American sports write stupid and inflammatory things on the internet.  Film at 11.

I don't think for one second that this is a minority viewpoint among their fanbase.  

I think that it is the prevailing viewpoint.  

Their attention has shifted from "Can we beat scUM?", to that being a forgone conclusion, but "We need to run up the score to impress the CFP Committee."  

They are taking a lot of things for granted that seem... unwise.

JT Barrett himself - not exactly just some guy on the internet - has been making statements about how it would be unthinkable for the CFP Committee to leave Ohio State out of the CFP.  

That's pretty presumptuous when you haven't even played the Michigan game yet.

I really, really doubt that.  At least, at the local alumni club viewing party that gets around 60 or so people most Saturdays, all I have heard is nervousness and anticipation.  I haven't heard a single person indicate that they're confident of a win.

At this moment on the subscription-only Bucknuts forum, in the top 12 posts, there is one saying Ohio State is going to lose due to their O-line vs. Michigan's D-line; 3 lamenting what a terrible QB Barret has become; and two calling for the firing of OSU's offensive coordinator and/or QB coach.  There are zero claiming a Buckeye win of any sort, yet alone a blowout.

Ohio State just beat a 3-8 team by one point on a failed conversion attempt.  There are delusional people in any fan base, but I do not believe the majority of fans are *that* delusional.

I've known a small number of OSU alums, and they were all surprisingly sane when it came to football. They were certainly passionate about their beloved Buckeyes, but their mentality was worlds apart from what you see in those comments above.

My hunch is that the most assholistic and obnoxious OSU fans are predominantly those who never set foot in an OSU classroom to do anything besides empty the wastebaskets.
