  • I hope this ends soon. This is getting out of hand. Hell it should have probably ended a couple days ago when the mass volume of votes incoming slowed to a crawl. Did they really expect tons of new votes right at the last second (either side, not saying only A&M) to be legit?

    So does that mean all the fan page votes will be thrown out the window? If so I am curious what the numbers will be.

  • I assume we will see UM open up at least a 5000 vote lead.

    Sounds like a good thing for Denard. He held a slowly growing lead until yesterday.

    I wonder how this will be enforced. I've created a shit show lol. My thread on another Michigan board was/is getting linked on the EA facebook page left and right.

    But if they can really figure out what votes are legit and which aren't, I'm kind of confident we'll win.

    My guess is they can ask facebook to look at all the votes and you can strip away any accounts/fan pages that were created within one day or something like that. That would be a quick easy look, although it may catch some real accounts.

    A deeper one would involve analyzing all the activity on the accounts/fan pages to see if they are real but that may take too much time.

    My guess is they'll just make their own decision of who wins. lol. Way too much work to try to weed out duplicates and fake accounts. One fanbase will be happy, one will not, and in a week nobody will give a **** about it.

    If that happens, expect Aggies on the cover. Everyone knows that they want an SEC team on the cover.

  • I have no idea how all this is going to turn out but you have to be optimistic for Denard...I mean who is Ryan Swope anyway and who in the nation doesn't love Denard, he is such a class act. I bet some TAMU fans even voted for him out of pure respect lol Denard should be the new Dos Equis guy...

    I posted this earlier in the thread

    'FWIW he's got the same amount of receptions as Braylon(Michigan's all-time leader in receptions at 252), he would be 2nd on the list of yards at Michigan(Braylon at 3,541 and Swope at 3,117), he'd also have the 2nd best statistical season at Michigan right behind Braylon(1,330 yards to Swope's 1,207). I'm not saying that he's a Braylon type college player but he's no scrub.'

    saying all that, I still don't know who the guy is. I have never heard of him until last week.

    I quit. those 6 + me = 7. I think 7 votes deserves a discharge from the voting obligation. I think I've done my job plus overtime.
