Better with Hart....yes. But, not "fragile" without him. Maybe Henne's health is more important than Hart's right now. |

I see Hart coming in if Michigan starts digging a hole.... Wisky is better than MSU especially if Hill is healthy.

And in the record books, where it really counts. Speaking of records: 20 straight conference wins...beyatch.

Do not discount the availability of Lance Smith to Wiscy! He is a very good and explosive back! He will start probably.

The part I find out of kilter with your analysis H2M is this ...
Carr is adamantly indicating Hart will go (and that Henne is a gamer). Quote:
And there is that also - the game is at Camp Randall - so Lance Smith can (and will) go. |

Sure they didn't fall apart, but they also didn't rally that well either.
They didn't rally after their first loss, they barely showed up. After that 2nd loss, let's skip over the ND, given the ease of beating that horrific squad. The following week they rolled without Henne, and barely beat PSU at home. They were so inspired by that struggle that they made Bacher look like Montana, and had to scrape out another close win. For all the weak b10 talk directed at OSU, UM is even more fortunate imo. This 8 game streak would not take place other years, when there was at least one quality team outside of The Game. UM most certainly needs to maintain their confidence and swagger. With Henne & Hart out, it's likely that there will be turnovers and field position surrendered to Wisconsin. I think your defense above anything else needs to maintain its confidence. I don't think it is a good thing if Wisky has more time to exploit Graham & Trent, when those two will be asked to tackle Wells in space and cover Small & Robiskie. Quote:

2)There 8 game winning streak has a lot more to do with the talent they have and games vs a bunch of mediocre to bad teams (the same we've been playing).. To me when you are a team that has faced adversity during the year, and have righted the ship and are on a winning steak, you better not let that streak end, cause in most cases it will take off some of the edge you've had.. Wins are precious in CFB, u dont hand one over cause u deem the game doesnt technically mean anything in the standings.. |

One last thought on this game -- the biggest thing in TSUN's favor in my opinion, is the degree of loss to injury suffered by Wisconsin during Saturday's game in Columbus.

When it comes to The Game I don't think it really matters what happens against Wiscy (barring further injuries) since both teams will be plenty motivated. If Hart and Henne are ready to play in the Wiscy game I can't imagine Carr would sit them just to get them more ready for tOSU. Don't really mind if he does though, I hope Hart is nice and healthy for his 4th and final loss to tOSU. Whatever needs to happen for that to occur is fine by me. ![]() |

Getting rocked by Oregon isn't exactly out of kilter with what Oregon has done to their opponents all year. Michigan could never defend Troy Smith or Vince Young, so what Dixon did to them probably would have happened whether Michigan was 1-0 or 0-1. Remember, Henne first got hurt in that game, so asking Mallett to orchestrate that kind of comeback in his first game would have been on par with him actually living up to all the wonderful Chuck Norris stuff he does in his own thread.
And if that loss had gotten them down on themselves and destroyed their confidence, which it easily could have, they don't beat Penn State, they don't beat Purdue, they don't go into Illinois and win, and they don't beat MSU after falling behind. |

Man, do you really think that about a mobile quarterback?
We'd better get Henton's trial date moved up pronto. ![]() Seriously though, you were not totally blown out of the water at home by Young (Rose Bowl of course) and the margin of victory for Ohio State didn't yawn like the chasm Dixon and company put between themselves and TSUN. There was more going on there than TSUN's systemic issues in defending against a mobile QB. |

But still - Henne's undeniably gotten better as the season goes on. That could never have happened if there were confidence issues stemming from Oregon. |

UM's star WR sure seemed to be lacking in effort that day. Quote:

Henne has gotten better, well I think he has, but still they have this habbit of getting into the fourth quarter down and having to come back. This isn't healthy, it eventually is how USC gets clipped every year, and a quick strike team might make them regret that, a lot. Like I said, I am still not sold on the corners at tsun, Morgan Trent isn't a good player, people seem to forget that, and I think of Wiscy gets the jump this game could get interesting fast. But as I have said, Wiscy has a horrible run defense, but then again, so did MSU and they were a handful. |
