The "Thing's you always see" thread and the fact that Michigan started using pumped in music and has finally scheduled their first night game (two things many thought would never happen) it got me thinking. What are somethings you will never see at a game for a certain team?

Terelle Pryor throw 5 consecutive passes where as an OSU fan, you won't go "Wow, that was a bad throw."

UND go undefeated. (not that I think the team is cursed to be bad, but it's harder to go undefeated when you play so many big games).

Let me guess, Michigan is a big game for OSU (even though not good), right? If you take Michigan out who would you consider traditionally tough opponents for OSU? Indiana? Northwestern? Minnesota?

Its easy to name the bottom feeders. Th biggest rivalry in the country is always a big game. If you could comprehend, I said I geuss you can count it for ND.

As for good teams ohio state plays or has played recently....usc, miami (fl), texas, Penn State, Wisconsin, Iowa. All are traditionally pretty solid programs.

You also said ND doesn't play too many traditional tough opponents. Did I not comprehend that correctly?

Also, OSU/Michigan is the biggest rivalry in Ohio and Michigan (although a lot of people say UM/Sparty is a bigger game for them) and that's it. There is more to the college football world than Ohio State.

I don't think that but there are people in Michigan that do. Like I said, there is college football and life in general outside the state of Ohio. I know it isn't an easy concept for a lot of people on here to grasp. And you are ignorant if you don't realize this.

From my experience, the OSU/UM rivalry is a way bigger deal to people in Ohio than it is for people in Michigan. That's not to say it is not a rivalry game for UM fans, it's just that the people in Ohio take it to another level.

The Michigan/Michigan St. game is a big deal to people in Michigan as well. When Michigan was kicking OSU'S ass every year under the Cooper years the Michigan State game became more heated for UM fans. I think know that the pendulum has swung back in OSU's favor and the wins are not coming for the people up north the games are getting more intense for UM fans. If OSU continues to dominate, I have to wonder when OSU starts looking at the Michigan game and saying "eh, our biggest rival is PSU'".

So you'll always see someone in a houndstooth hat and UGA.

So you'll always see hotties at Ole Miss.

So you'll always see Bevo at UT games.

Gentleman, you're missing the point here. You just mentioned three things you will ALWAYS see, you just put them in the negative. These really belong on the other thread. We're looking for things you will NEVER see. For instance, you'll never Nick Saban looking happy on the sidelines or you'll never see Les Miles play it safe.

I guess ESPN doesn't count as the rest of the country though, right? You're a fucking idiot.

to say notre dame doesn't play traditionally solid programs is pretty ignorant, especially since the first team you mentioned has played notre dame every year since the 1920s. they've also played penn state recently, they play michigan (one of or the most winningest program) on a regular basis, there are also plans to play oklahoma in the future as well as trying to schedule texas, mizzou, and wisconsin.

(i'm just saying they've played the teams, not that they've been competitive in recent years.)

notre dame might be guilty of softening their schedule, but then again, ohio state scheduled marshall, ou, and eastern michigan this year.. not exactly traditional power houses.
