I'll take that bait. Things that aren't very popular when stated on these pages:

1. There's a reason Henne, Hart, Manningham and Long get the kind of ink they get, they're good. Playing a comparable schedule across the last three years, they have put together numbers that rank with, or exceed, anything Ohio State put up (except wins in the The Game).

2. It may be that their defense does not have the overall speed to stop the spread, but there have only been two Big 10 teams in the last three years with a enough speed at QB to play the spread effectively, Michigan State and Ohio State.

3. When lined up in a goal line defense, playing smash mouth football, Michigan has been tough. Case in point, in the first half of the 04 game OSU twice had the ball first and goal and scored a total of 3 points.

4. Michigan's biggest problem against OSU has been giving up the big play. In the 06 game 108 yards of OSU's rushing total of 187 yards came on two plays, one by Wells (52) and one by Pitts (56). Throw in a pass to Ginn for 39 yards and you have close to 150 yards of offense accounted for in three plays.

5. I don't know what happened to Michigan in their first two games. It was more than just the spread. There is too much talent on this team and too little talent in the rest of the conference (except OSU) to write them off. I will not be surprized if they are undefeated in the Big 10 when it's time for the next round of The Game.

6. All the more reason to think that Henson may see "extensive" play time.
