CHAMPS: More on Why Michigan's Run Is LEGENDARY | Michigan Podcast  

UGA fan here. I’ve been following the trajectory of your program and this podcast since 2020, and to see the turnaround of the program in the past decade has been incredible. Congrats to all Wolverine fans! Very much happy for you!

I would like to thank…. -JH for bring back hope -Team 141 for enduring -Team 142 for overcoming -Team 143 for solidifying -Team 144 for achieving “Who’s got it better than us?!”…..Nobody

The sun is brighter, the air is fresher and the food is sweeter. It is truly great to be a Michigan Wolverine. A team for the legends that I will be telling my great grandchildren about around the fire.

Ive waited patiently since 97 for this moment. Thank you team 144. Legends forever

Blake’s run in OT to seal the game needs to be added to this opening clip

Growing up, my dad always talked about the UM teams from the 80s and 90s. By the time I had become a full fledged fan in my teens by 2010 it felt like those were more folklore than reality. I can’t wait to tell my kids about this run.

Mark’s face😂😂😂😂 He is still my favorite Buckeye. All class, fair, & a good sport.

It’s sooo great to be a Michigan Wolverine! 〽️

I've been watching for 52 seasons since 1972 as a freshman at Michigan. No words can adequately describe the pride that I feel for all those young men who put Team above all else and whose off the field work makes them Michigan Men far beyond their accomplishments on the field. They embody Bo's mantra to the fullest. Regardless of what the future holds for the coaching staff, this is a singular accomplishment of enormous magnitude that is now forever enshrined in the hearts of all Michigan alumni and fans. The photo of Team 144 that will sit beside the championship trophy at Schembechler Hall, will live forever in Michigan's long and glorious football history. Hail!

Congrats to you guys. I love the rivalry and love my buckeyes but you have to give credit to the wolverines. I only dislike Jim because he’s on the opposite side 😂. Amazing team you guys had this year I told my michigan buddies I thought Michigan would run the table this year. I’m a die hard buckeye fan but I’m one of the most unbiased fans you’ll meet. Congrats again I’m hoping and praying we finally come out on top in THE GAME next year

OSU alum here. Congrats on a great season. A great B1G 10 representative. AND this tremendous channel.

The 97 team was legendary. This team is MYTHICAL

Worked a 12 hr shift on 2 hrs sleep. Didn't mind one bit. Gonna be riding this high all week. All is right in the world today.

That Michigan fight song is the greatest piece of music in all of sports and all of college endeavors

It took a Michigan Legend to build a team full of legends. They went on a legendary 3 year run that ended in 15-0 perfection. This team will never be forgotten.

Best week of football in Michigan ever!!!!

JJ as a HS senior more prescient and assertive than 99% of "adults"

THOSE WHO STAY. WILL BE CHAMPIONS. - Prophetic words by Coach Bo Wild season. Thanks for the continuous coverage, insight, and commentary.

How sweeeeeeeet is!! Jimmy delivered!! Hail to the victors valiant hail.

Michigan won in 97, my senior year in HS. They won in 23, my son is a senior in HS. At least I can guarantee another when my grandson (not born or conceived yet) hits his senior year of HS. 😂

Mark never thought this day would actually come to fruition. I love it!

Can't help but remember my freshman year at Bursley dorm in the North Campus. Was too poor to get even a single ticket to go to a game at the Big House. Felt bitter then about it, thought the school should have given me free tickets. Have been following the Wolverines ever since. Been let down too many times to count. It's a sweet moment to soak in this victory. I'm 56 now. Living in France. Certain joys come late in life. Thanks for your poignancy, Steve.

Steve, i seriously started tearing up, especially thinking of sitting in my dad's lap at the big house as a kid. Now i have 6 grandkids and my youngest turned 1 on New Years day. I'm out if the country but my sin and i stayed in the phone for 4 hours to be together for this game. National champs.

Team 144 will be remembered forever. Great young men on and off the field. Go Blue!

this is the greatest team of the past 60 years, even better than 97

The main concern should be keeping Minter. The defense won the whole thing.

JJ‘s dad also posted that old post that JJ made in high school. I think that’s where everybody got it from. Bro spoke it into existence.

Happy for Steve and the Michigan fans. Good to have football as a distraction in these crazy times that Steve talks about in his day job. Go Dawgs

THE TEAM THE TEAM THE TEAM!!!!! Thank you TEAM 144. You just made my 2023 a little brighter! Hail to the victors!!!! Go Blue!!!!

My life is complete lol . I didn’t know if I’d ever see Michigan win a national championship

I've been a Wolverine fan since the early 70s. I could never dream a team could be so good. 144 is a total team. They had lolls during games but always had enough in the tank to turn it around and secure wins. Hard work. Discipline. Confidence. Unity. The hallmarks of greatness in any Era. Hail, Hail to Michigan, the Champions of the Nation!

Thanks for all the great content during this magical season, Steve! It has been an incredible journey! Go Blue!

THIS IS THE STUFF OF LEGENDS PERIOD!!! YOU ARE SO RIGHT MY FRIEND!!! EVERYTHING YOU SAID WAS SPOT ON!!! I Have Loved this Team Since at age 8 I Saw them Play on TV and I Loved The Colors and the Way they Flew to The Ball on Defense!!! TEAM 144 WERE LEGENDS AND NOW LEGENDARY 〽️〽️〽️🏈🏈🏈〽️〽️〽️🏆🏆🏆🏆 GO BLUE FOREVA!!!

Congratulations, Steve. We finally did it!!! HAIL TO VICTORS, and Always, GOBLUE🏆!!!!!

I'll never forget beating Washington and being the number one solo team in the country. Steve Deace has a great podcast. I agree with what Steve Deace said. I'm still pumped up and its 5:03 PM Tuesday. Go Blue!

Pull down the banner, put the trophy in the case, mold the rings. King in the north. National champions.

Absolutely Amazing! This team has earned Legendary Status in the annals of Michigan Football. I will remember this fondly for the rest of my life.

There is the 86 Mets The Bad Boy Pistons And the 2023 Wolverines !!! These guys define the term BadAss

There is nothing better than being a MICHIGAN Wolverine fan...Go Blue I love u

I was so pissed off that Tom Osborne announces retirement right after the Nebraska Tennessee game in '97. had it not been for that, no way would Nebraska have got any of the votes they needed. A truly classless move. That said, team 144 made me grin from ear to ear, and I will never forget what these men accomplished. I'm 54, I may never see this again in my lifetime and then again maybe I'll see you in a few more times if Jim harbaugh stays at the program.

This video is the peak of the Michigan podcast. May this be our new beginning. Go Blue.

Steve I love your show been watching since 2019. What a team never forget the memories. The Alabama game showed me this team is built differently how they came thru. Now the scandal will always leave a distain but they played there toughest opponents after everyone knew. They won those game fair and square. They proved that they deserve everyone's respect. Hail hail to Michigan

Being at Houston, seeing the Michigan-gray throughout the day, then witnessing a dominant performance by the offensive run game, and defensive secondary was the best way to end an incredible journey! That journey filled with so many painful tears and hurt, naysayers, and haters... to all of them... we did it, Coach! Top of the class in 2023! #1 baby! Go Blue!

It was legendary! Hail on the Victors! Go Blue forever! The 2023 Michigan team is the best Michigan team ever and I love the 1997 team.

Thanks to Mark for his Buckeye viewpoint and willingness to participate in a discussion of Michigan’s historic unprecedented 15-0 season.

Going to have to get some NATTY clips in that intro now!

Team 144 will go down as the greatest Michigan football team of all time!! I'm still trying to pinch myself that this is real! So proud of this team, 2023 National Champs. Man that sounds good, GO BLUE!!

Thank you for all that you've done through this great journey and GO BLUE!!

For people that can’t understand us rabid Michigan football fans I will say this…During covid since 2020 I lost 4 family members in 3 years. But my Mom got to see Michigan win the Big 10 Championship in 2021. She passed two days later. And Pop got to see part of this year’s run but he didn’t get to see them win it all yesterday. As he passed not long ago. During these extremely difficult times Michigan football was an extremely bright spot in our lives. My grandfather was a season ticket holder most of his adult life. He had 5 seats. So we rotated going to home games as a family. It was something that we shared a lot of joy doing together. And I know that my grand parents, parents and my sister and brother in law did witness this too even though they are not here. So to me Michigan football is more then just a sport. It is life itself! My blood runs blue!! God bless us all! 2024 Undefeated National Champs!

If you ask my kids to say their prayers they'll tell you dear God please let Michigan win I made a deal with them 3 years ago every time they win we go to the arcade never thought I'd spend 2 grand in a year been a hell of a journey with a hell of a team couldn't be more proud hope it continues for years to come go blue 🙏 finally got the natty

i love it, but you're gonna have to update the intro video with some new clips! Go Blue! National Champs again!

I didn't sleep hardly at all last night just so happy about the wolverines winning it all through perseverance that's special go Blue

There is a school named Michigan, Who’s coach said, “Those who stay will win.” So each player came back, To run, pass and sack, And now everyone’s a champion. 🏆HAIL TO THE VICTORS!🏆 Who’s got it better than us?

Mark’s a good dude, he handled it well, but you could tell he was like “man, I have to compliment Michigan”

For over 60 years I have been a fan this is my favorite team GO BLUE

Go Blue this is the greatest Michigan team ever team 144! 15-0! National champs Go Blue!

We did it hail hail to Michigan the champions of the world

Steve you should edit out that intro scene with Juwan “kinda” flexing on Harbaugh Juwan has got to produce SOMETHING as a coach to deserve to flex on the CHAMPION Coach Harbaugh Just my thoughts

I was born in 96 and last night I got to watch the game holding my 4 month old son I can’t wait until he gets older to watch the highlights with him and tell him about this team

Hail, yes! The 2023 Michigan Wolverines are National Champions!! The team, the team, the team!!! #Team144 #GoBlue

You guys are absolutely the best. I ❤your effort and passion.

The salt thrown around by the haters is delicious! Yes, wallow in your resentment and sour heart. Enjoy living under your rock. GO BLUE!!!

This was the 5 Star of 5 Stars A Michigan Championship for 2024............GO BLUE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I expect Blake Corum to be honored on the wall of the concourse in the Big House in the future. But there was so many pieces to the puzzle that made it all come together. Not all get the recognition that they deserve and yet it doesn’t get them down. They all showed up week in and week out and made the dream a reality. This was an accomplishment for the ages.

Love. You guys. The best.

Kudos to you Steve! Go Blue〽️….they have to crown us…National Champs!

So proud & thankful for my sweet Wolverines.

Well said, nothing tops simply being a happy fan.

GO BLUE! WE DID IT!!

The greatest football week of our lives continues with the Lions win on Sunday😊

Thank you Steve!!!

Go Blue!!! I will forever remember this team and the tenacity of its players…

So thankful for these last 3 years. Been a fan since 1973. How about a nice episode of transfer portal targets and coaching scenarios Michigan Podcast episode. (We don’t have basketball to watch this year). Looks like 2 offensive starters and 4 defensive starters are returning. I know it’s a process but i am hoping for 16 Michigan “buckeye smashers” to be drafted in April!

Steve, You have one responsibility this offseason, UPDATE THE INTRO WITH RECENT CLIPS!

This team What the had to overcome is the second greatest story in all of American sports only behind the 1980 Olympic hockey team ITS GREAT TO BE A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE

steve, this must be your favorite podcast ever

Im gonna need the Rose Bowl OT stop added to the intro, Steve

Not a Michigan fan, but give credit where it's due. Michigan handled all their family business.

Great to see the evolution of this show. Go blue baby

Buckeye congratulates Michigan and their fans!

I've never been more happy or entertained hearing the phrase "more eligibility left" over and over and OVER again lol GO BLUE

And Greatest offensive coordinator

Love you Steve!

Great job

That response the team had in the 2nd half against Ohio when they went down the field and scored a TD, then Michigan came back and scored, I knew this team was special.

Hail to the Conquering Heroes! Hail to Team 144 🏆〽️

One of the greatest seasons in college football history

Going to need to update the intro Steve!

what a great team incredible

GO BLUE!

The. Best. Intro on RU-vid. If that does not that not make your hair stand on end and give you goosebumps then check for a pulse. THEY DID IT. WE DID IT! NATIONAL CHAMPIONS! MICHIGAN.

GO BLUE WHAT A HELL OF A YEAR!! 15-0 UNBEATABLE!! 〽️💪🏆

We did it y'all. We did it.

Go Blue! I am happy that it happened! For my whole family that came before me, and my kids who will come after along with their kids, NO ONE has it better than us!! Hail to the Victors!

Time to update your opening video montage. Corum's overtime TD against Alabama needs to live forever on your channel.

So are we finally gonna update the intro???

This defensive performance against Washington was all-time worthy. They deserve 01 Miami, 04 USC, and 19 LSU conversation. 21 UGA didn't play this type of offense like UW and 05 TX barley beat USC on a 4th quarter collapse.

Oh yeah! I do like the beat to yall fight song. REAL TALK! ROLL TIDE

Steve how bout the fact that we got both the rose bowl and the natty in the same year!? DESTINY IS CALLING

Steve… It’s time to add some new video clips to your intro video now.
