Yep, Michigan being the all time winningest program ever in the NCAA football records is a sad thing we should ignore....../sarcasm

And Michigan's continued beat down of poor pup's hapless SEC teams should be ignored as well. Oops, I forgot that pup thinks Floriduh beat Michigan in their bowl game in 2008. Wait! Wait! You mean Michigan won that game? Why pup is so certain the SEC team won by 35 points....... /sarcasm once again........poor, silly pup was psychologically ruined for more than a year.....

Twas a sad day for Pup.........you suffered such deep depression when Michigan continued its ongoing SEC dominance, you had to reward yourself with 2 extra early bird specials per week for a year......

12 wins for Michigan, 2 for the SEC.....facts are hard things.....

:-)

facts are hard things

They certainly are. Perhaps that is why ever since the "do-over" year you have tended to ignore them. As for the "winningest (sic) program ever," it is not surprising that Michigan has won a lot while playing mostly other "big" 10 weaklings.

That one with little to cheer about has to rely on an anemic "big" 10 schedule and the era of no helmets and therefore no teeth to claim that record is perfectly understandable.

However, when the modern football era (that is after World War II) is considered, Oklahoma (my beloved most favorite team) leads in both victories and winning percentage and is second to Notre Dame in National Titles*:

1. Notre Dame (8) 2. Oklahoma (7) 3. Alabama (6) 4. Miami (5) Southern Cal (5) 6. Minnesota (4) Nebraska (4) Ohio State (4) 9. Florida (3) Texas (3) 10. Six Schools (2)

Finally, when your fading memory again surfaces however briefly, try to remember these four items:
Texas, Florida, LSU, Florida

... and have someone explain to you that these teams have won the last four NCAA national championships.

*Here's a thought: Just as the addition of State Pen Penn State as the 11th "big" 10 team helped to bring at least some respectability to that sisterhood of sissies, perhaps Notre Dame can be persuaded to dishonor its fine football tradition by becoming the "big" 10's 12th team. Perhaps not ... :>)
