I always root for MSU, except when they are playing against UM. Heck outside of OSU, I almost always root for the Big 10.

Why not? Because of one bad season in one sport? They compete in many sports every year, there is always something to cheer about. (Hockey, Basketball and Wrestling all had good seasons, and those are just male, winter sports off the top of my head)

Actually according to Stassen.com the premiere site for FB records through the years the Wolverines have suffered 11 losing seasons having twice suffered consecutive losing seasons. The Ohio State University has suffered only 10 losing seasons and has suffered consecutive losing seasons once.

Since 1930, about the time collegiate football was really taking shape in this country, the school with the highest winning percentage is ..... OSU.

Michigan does have many great teams. I generally cheer for them in postseason play .. even being a Spartan Alum and grew up a Buckeye fan. Don't get me wrong .. my heart doesn't break if they lose but I'm okay with them doing well out of conference.

I'm a U-M grad who will be rooting for the Spartans.

I'll always root for Big 10, Midwest and Michigan teams before any others.

Michigan has both more wins, and a higher winning percentage than any team in CFB history. Regardless of picking specific eras. Also from your website, I see 12 losing seasons for UM.
