Talking with my dad last night, we agreed that the wolverweenies would do one of two things: 1) Come out smoking, taking control of the game and putting the App State game out of their thoughts; or 2) Roll over and play dead. We then agreed that it was the skunkbears we were talking about, and that App State game is never going to go away! I still don't think we've seen the pinnacle of this glorious scUM run yet. Hart guaranteeing victory next week....  |

Arizona's lackluster loss at BYU caused fans to blast coach Mike Stoops and question his future at UA. It also caused at least one recruit to reconsider his oral commitment to the Wildcats.
Highly regarded cornerback Robert Golden of Edison High School in Fresno, Calif., who gave his pledge to UA long ago and watched UA practice during fall camp, has decided to take official visits to Georgia Tech, Mississippi and Michigan.

ESPN - Ducks roll as Wolverines suffer worst loss since '68 - NCAA College Football Recap
"We have good kids and they're hurting," Wolverines coach Lloyd Carr said. "If losing doesn't make you hurt, you shouldn't be at Michigan."
Is that not a roundabout way of saying that Michigan plans on losing? 
Henne not playing against NoD. Doubt it even matters. I have waited for this 0-2 powerhouse matchup for a long time.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
If you would be so kind as to direct your attention to the conference standings, you'll notice that The University of Michigan is the only winless team in the Big 10.
That is all.

Yesterday was a HUGE recruiting day for Michigan, apparently they had quite a few of their top targets there. Here's how it went with three of their priority picks:
OregonLive.com: Everything Oregon
Quote:
A few feet away, a Michigan chaperone was trying to pry those recruits up the tunnel, out of the stadium and far away from all the Northwest propaganda. But the recruits didn't budge. They just stood, watching Oregon dance and listening to Stewart. And what did they think?
Said Hoseay: "I want to go to Oregon."
The other two recruits nodded.
Then Mason said he was considering more than stadium size and program history. Baker said he couldn't remember Michigan losing that badly. And then Timothy Hopkins, their high school coach who drove them the 45 miles from suburban Detroit to Ann Arbor for the visit, jotted down his telephone number and handed it to someone in lightning yellow and said, "Call me. I got players."
...
There was no facet of Oregon's victory more integral to the future of the program than the look on the faces of those three Wolverines recruits as they wondered what it would be like to wear a Ducks uniform. Hoseay even looked down at his necklace and, eek, said, "They didn't even spell my name right."

We have Block 'O', and are the consensus front-runner for Pryor. Michigan has kids picking their opponent for the week, and after the current outgoing class bids farewell this season, a roster full of poorly coached, poorly conditioned flops.
If we don't dominate the rivalry through at least 2010, I'll be disappointed.

If all goes well Trent will be the nickel or worse by week 3.

That defensive backfield may be the worst I've seen from an upper-level Big Ten school in a long time. There's not a single one that I've seen do anything spectacular... Trent, Sears, Harrison, Adams, Englemon (is he still around?). You have a redshirt freshman and a couple true freshmen that everybody is hoping will know what they're doing early, because if not that D is going to get lit up. It won't even take a great QB to get it done.

If our starting D sets up like this: Jamison-Taylor-Johnson-Graham, Crable-Thompson-C. Graham/Mouton, Warren/Trent/Sears/Williams and Adams/Brown at safety, I'll take my chances. Our D may not be as good as yours, but I'll take my odds. They don't have to be great, they have to be good enough.
