I wanted Wisconsin to lose. I want Michigan to win.

How about you?

Wisconsin losing I think has a tangible positive effect for Iowa. Only one of those schools will be good each year, and the programs are mirror images of one another.

It helps Iowa not having Wisconsin have a Rose Bowl trophy when recruits come in.

With Michigan, that is a national brand of insane nature, they are always going to recruit well and with Hoke, I think they are going to be back to being Michigan real quick, so it doesn't matter as much.

I think we are headed back to the Big 2 and Little 10.

How about you?

Totally agree!! (depends who they're playing). Save a little Big Ten face please!

michigan was always my second favorite b10 team. i soured on them during the richrod years, but really like what they're doing now. i think they hired the perfect guy for the job and got the best DC available.

The only time I want Michigan to lose is if they are playing Iowa or if a Michigan loss helps Iowa.

How about you?

hey, have you ever been to Iowa City?

You mean have I ever left? Only on vacation...

what is wrong with you people? cheering for Michigan!? really?! they benifited from an easy schedual and are probably the wrost team in the BCS games. never will i cheer for mich, wisky, Neb, or isu. im a hawkeye fan and i cheer for the hawks. idc about how the B1G does in the bowl season. only about iowa.

 

[PatrickAdamovicz]

Totally agree with this thread. I love it when Wisconsin loses. The conference is much better when Michigan is winning.

 

[HaydenHawk56]

I don't want either team. We don't want Michigan to be good in our division and we want Wisco to fall down a few pegs.

I like Michigan's fight song and beating them, but that is about it.

 

[BergHawk7]

How is the conference better with Michigan winning? So we can have Ohio St win when they'r back in 2 yrs and then continue to have Ohio St vs Mich in the championship game? That'd get boring really quick. The B1G doesn't need Mich winning to be great. It needs diff teams winning each yr to be great.

 

[WayzataHawkeye]

I root for all the B1G teams in bowl games. The B1G brand is probably one of the biggest things we have going for us in recruiting. It was hard to root for Nebraska yesterday but I managed. BB can be irritating but I think Badger fans are great based on my trips to Madison.

 

[MissouriHerk]

Very glad Mich won. Even more befuddled now at how we beat the Sugar Bowl champion and lost to Minnesota.

 

[HawkeyeMcNutt]

Although unrealistic, I always want the Big Ten to go undefeated in its bowl games.

I like Brady Hoke, if they were listening to me they would have hired him instead of Rich rod back in the day...unless they are playing Iowa, go blue!!
