But the fact it is even a talking point just shows how masterful of a job Dantonio has done. Unbelievable where he has taken this program. Enjoy the ride.

When you say why not us it presents an interesting question. 2014 is going to be a lot more difficult than 2013 and we have much, much higher expectations. Coach D nailed it - the key is consistency. But even that will only get you so far. Some things are beyond our control. Auburn was a few miracle plays away from being a multi-loss team. Does anyone really think that FSU was the best team in NCAA football last year? Of course, we have to recognize them as national champs, but there's a handful of teams from other conferences that could have beaten them. The bad calls against Notre Dame. We win that game and who knows, we're playing FSU.

BTW, I was talking to my neighbor yesterday and he's a Notre Dame alum. I had mentioned watching the Green & White game and he said "you guys could have played in the national championship.... I'll be the first to admit that Michigan State got robbed in South Bend"

Just get a chance to be in the playoff.

I, for one, am happy with the way it ended up going down. I have REALLY wanted to go to the Rose Bowl for many yrs. Missed out in '88 and have been patiently waiting ever since. Plus it's nice to have the Rose Bowl win as a stepping stone for this season to take another step forward.

Had an awesome time out in Cali even with getting sick during the game.
