hart scares me far and away the most. in every game he has not played, their offense was far than splendid. he steps in every game and plays his butt off.

also, scarletandgrey77, i dont think the time off will make him more fumble prone. i remember seeing stats on hart and he has fumbled all of like 2 times in his whole career(not sure aobut recent games as this stat was used towards the beginning of the season)

Hart has had a couple of should-have-been fumbles this year that didn't count as official fumbles because of too-quick whistles and/or clueless replay officials.

But trying to strip him is a real risk/reward proposition because he runs through arm-tackles so well. Hopefully the first guy will wrap him up, and the second guy can rip the ball out once or twice.

One of the tight ends, either Massaquoi or Ecker. michigan has a history of burning us at the wrong time with a tight end. They don't usually put up big numbers against us but they always come up with that third and long to keep a drive going or that go ahead touchdown to put pressure back on the good guys.

Overall though I'm not that worried about this game. Maybe thats a bad thing but I don't see another team lining up against this years team and just beating us without some kind of wierd game plan. PSU did it but it was bad weather and 5 or 6 weeks ago, wouldn't happen now.

And the damned screen pass. That always bugged the crap out of me in Coops days, it's like they never figured out that the screen was in the playbook. Even last year, IIRC, their 1st or 2nd TD was set up by a big screen play.

I feel very strongly if Ohio State's biggest concern is a Freshman wide out, OSU wins by 40. So very rarely has a WR been the difference in this GAME.... That's not to say there haven't been some big days by WR's, of course. My instinct is running well wins this game (And again, I should have therefore voted "Hart" not Henne) Last time I can think of a WR's production being the difference maker it was Boston in 1998. But, I leave room for having forgotten someone.

I say Manningham. He has great size, and we saw how bad Youboty was ate up against Minnesota by taller receivers.

Youboty was ate up because he was dinged up (hip pointer) and just had a bad game...receiver height had zero to do with any of their big plays. Also, Manningham is 6'1", just like Youboty, so he's not taller.
