The Spartans gradumuated their QB and Tiller is gone at Purdue. Don't look for either to beat ND.:(

No one was looking for the latter.

Msu lost their worst qb of the decade. They'll be young, but I think they made a mistake putting hoyer back in vs osu. Cousins was a lot more impressive, and Nichol has even more talent.

Is the deck stacked against msu in terms of talent? Sure, but it always is, and they've owned south bend in recent years. Writing them off is a bit unusual for someone so fond of history.

Tony Gerdeman foresees TSUN as 9th in the Big Ten.

Big Ten Countdown
By Tony Gerdeman

No. 9 Michigan
Predicted Finish
5-7 (2-6)

Two-Cent Overview
Rich Rodriguez' system is one year older and, likely, about three years better. They'll be starting a freshman quarterback behind a veteran, yet maligned, offensive line. All of the Wolverines' offensive weapons are back and more experienced. New defensive coordinator Greg Robinson has designed a 3-4 defense that best suits the team, but they'll still need playmakers to emerge. The cornerbacks should be better with a healthy Donovan Warren and a sophomore Boubacar Cissoko, but is there anything else of value in the secondary right now- And with a killer schedule (seriously), all questions need to be answered quickly.

Schedule
Sep. 5 Western Michigan (W)
Sep. 12 Notre Dame (L)
Sep. 19 Eastern Michigan (W)
Sep. 26 Indiana (W)
Oct. 03 at Michigan State (L)
Oct. 10 at Iowa (L)
Oct. 17 Delaware State (W)
Oct. 24 Penn State (L)
Oct. 31 at Illinois (L)
Nov. 07 Purdue (W)
Nov. 14 at Wisconsin (L)
Nov. 21 Ohio State (L)

Goal
A bowl game south of Detroit

But I've been told 6 trillion times now that the Big Ten sucks. Surely you've seen Ohio State lose bowl games recently as proof of that.

I have seen that, and don't call me Shirley.

In his tOSU preview, Tony Gerdeman had this bit of mirth:

Best Road Game To Pack Up The Family Truckster And Travel To

At Michigan. This will be your last chance to see Tate Forcier in a Michigan uniform before he transfers to Rice. Do you really want to take that away from your child? On your deathbed, do you want the last thing your son says to you as he smothers you with a pillow through tears of sadness mixed with guilt and joy, "Father, why didn't you take me to see Thaddeus Gibson repeatedly pummel Tate Forcier? I can forgive the affairs, the secret families and the financial ruin, but you knew I was a Tater Hater and yet you did nothing!" This cannot be how you plan to raise your children.
