Michigan Upperclassmen Seeking Ultimate Revenge for 2017 Blowout Loss at Penn State

Remember that embarrassing loss Michigan football took against Penn State two years ago? Most don't, and Wolverine fans that do probably wish they didn't.

Well, it turns out the loss is still fresh on the mind of the upperclassmen who suffered through that massacre.

Seniors like Josh Metellus remember that game vividly because it was the loss that effectively ended their season, as the Wolverines weren't the same after.

Michigan did obliterate the Nittany Lions on their home field last season 42-7, as well as defeat Wisconsin and Michigan State in a stretch of games known as the "revenge tour". But the players still yearn for a win at Beaver Stadium in order to officially get payback.

Part of the resentment felt by the upperclassmen comes from the feeling that Penn State was purposely running up the score when the game was already out of reach.

With both teams being ranked in almost the same spots as they were two years ago, this should be a showdown for the ages.
