Why does this highlight not show the only touchdown drive of Penn State.

And also of course a pile of those wins are do to corruption. After the '05 win, it was reported that Lloyd Carr, took the referees err.. referines out for a very nice dinner.

Because it wasn't relevant to a video titled "*Michigan* highlights vs. Penn State..."

The irony is that although I was able to get the key plays up in personal-record time (I think by within 2 hours of the final gun), I'll be really busy for the next few days and won't be able to get to the O or D highlights for a while.

I gotta say that the 1994 Nittany Lions are my #1 Big 10 team of the 90s, dominating almost every opponent they played, and were robbed of a split national title. In 1996, the Rose Bowl in my mind was the true national championship that year, because while Ohio State lost to Michigan that year, they were just phenomenal, blowing out nearly everyone else, but if you want to switch 1996 OSU and 1997 UM, I won't argue with you. It's a very close call, both teams were the stuff of legend.

@MVillani1985 who was 1 and 2? OSU had great seasons but always lost to michigan. Penn State was good the first couple of years they were in the big ten, but michigan dominated them the rest of the way. Michigan also went to the most rose bowls in the 90's out of any other big ten team except for wisconsin who had the same who michigan also owned.

[MVillani1985]

The hex got broken last year, but you know, I gotta agree that in 1997 Michigan absolutely was the best team that year and was the third best Big Ten team of the 90s. Penn State was a good team in 1997 that many forget about until injuries decimated them in their last couple games and they lay down and let MSU walk all over them and Enis and Juvicious manage to get suspended against a Florida that Penn State should have opened a can of whoopass on that year. But yeah, UM would've killed Nebraska

[MVillani1985]

Got the score REALLY wrong, but I got the "closer than the score" right.

[MVillani1985]

To be fair, I think at one PSU touchdown will be defensive. If Penn State can't get some interceptions, then it might be more like 20-10.

Either way, I think it'll be closer than the score. I don't see Penn State even thinking of pulling their starters unless there's an injury.

"27-7 is my current prediction."

i like you, but c'mon dude, what were you smoking this morning? I wouldn't be surprised if penn state beats us, but by 3 TD's? Now way thats going to happen, especially considering PSU lost their best defensive player for the season in Sean lee

[MVillani1985]

I think it'll be a lot like the Penn State vs Iowa game last year, but the score might be different. Before thinking it over, I gave crazy predictions like 45-0, 45-25, and 31-0 at halftime. But in the past couple weeks, looking at both teams, I think the score and the way the game plays out will be a lot like the Iowa game. 27-7 is my current prediction.

[Poole1Dan]

Meh. I thought the 2 seconds added on to the clock was okay. It looked pretty clear that an extra second ran off the clock after Carl Tabb stepped out of bounds.

The last two games have been called fairly by the refs. I hope that continues in 2008. BTW Mvillani, i enver asked you what you predict the exact score of the Michigan-PSU game is gonig to be. I know you said PSU will win, but you didn't predict a score. i say it will be 24-21 Michigan

[MVillani1985]

And also those two seconds in 2005 and the call on Larry Johnson in 2002. But I completely agree, the 1997-2001 games and the 2006-2007 games were legit wins for Michigan. That would make the series 8-5 Michigan instead of 10-3 Michigan.

[Poole1Dan]

In all fairness, penn State got screwed over in both 2002 and 2005. In the 02 game, I thought that Marlin Jackson interfered with Bryant Johnson on a third down pass play, which forced PSU to settle for a fieldgoal in the first overtime of that 27-24 win for U-M. The in 2005, Jason Avant looked like he was out of bounds on the first play of that game winning drive. The rest of Michigans victories have been fair game.
