@michffl2004 There was never any dispute of the roughing the punter call which was obvious. I'm sorry. I didn't know that if you're PSU and you rough a punter, you shouldn't be flagged. But thank you for proving my point, jackass.

It's inherently obvious that the talent Michigan had during Carr's tenure was insane. A lot of these players moved on to have successful NFL careers. It must have been dope as fuck to be a student at Umich during the 90s and early 2000s. Now it kinda sucks. All i do is waste my time on facebook haha

I remember this game vividly. I was just 11 years old but I could recognize horrible officiating when I saw it. I remember thinking the whole overtime the refs were going to win the game for Penn State somehow but when Chris Perry scored I erupted and ran around the house celebrating for like ten minutes lol.

didn't Penn State rough our punter when we were inside our own 10? The call kept alive a drive that I think led to the second Michigan touchdown.

Was this also the last year the coaches wore the old style Block M hat that Bo was always seen in?

Now the M looks fatter and the hats often have some kind of stripe or other design, the old one was timeless.

I was at this game, and it was a classic -- and yes, Michigan was on the receiving end of some VERY BAD calls, as pointed out by WH above. The other amusing part about this game was watching JoePa the entire time on the sidelines. He was hardly paying attention to the field -- seriously, he spent most of the game chasing the referee up and down the sideline and screaming at him.

Nittany Nation misses you Zack Mills (NOT!)

As a Chiefs fan, I notice LJ out there for the Nits. Funny that he was more mature back then than he ever was in KC.

Penn State fans are a bunch of little bitches. I hate them as much as moo u, notre lame, and that team below us.

Go Blue!

[JRoss2410]

I still content to this day that the reason this game was even as it ended was becaucse coming into this game Marlin Jackson was a blanket on people.

When Combs went down Jackson's head was gone the rest of the game and he just got smoked over and over again this game.

Ah, the "Lloyd Carr is a baby" game where Penn State fans made (and continue make) laughingstocks of themselves with their glaringly obvious double standard.

[theproducerspart2]

I'm going to miss this game :(

[GoongalaGoongala]

Penn state fans have this inflated view of their program. They think that since JoePa has been with the program since college football was invented and they have what amounts to basically a zombie ghoul roaming the sideslines that they're special. They can't fathom how a great storied powerhouse program like theirs haven't dominated both Michigan and the Big Ten, so they make all kinds of excuses. If it wasn't for RichRod, they may not have gotten a win against Michigan this past decade.

One of the worst officiated games I've ever seen. The announcers usually do a good job at pointing out all the lucky breaks Penn State gets, but check this glaring example out. 23:45 - look at the play clock. What a joke.

[DMichiganWol21]

@ThoseWhoStayUofM at 22:11 was probably another one of the calls where you just shake your head and ask how?

[Fritothemonk]

Holy deja vu! I have this game taped and this is EXACTLY where my video starts because I started recording it late!

[ImSeriously2123]

First view AND comment....GO BLUE!!!!
