You don't think Michigan is going to try and embarrass App?

I wouldn't touch that line.

Troy is the best bet out of those.

This.



There are few things going against yall this time.

1. They are out for blood. They will not let up on the gas.

2. Thanks to you, they know what the spread option offense is

3. They aren't a slow old man B1G football team anymore. They have players to stop the spread

4. You don't have the same team you did in 2007. AE and the talent around him isn't on your current roster.

I don't know if we'll approach 30K again this year. We've suffered through 2 and 3 win seasons under McGee. The Trojans haven't been at the top of their game the last few seasons either.

I expect you'll see the line increase closer to game day.

From a coaching standpoint, it really doesn't make any sense to throw everything and the kitchen sink at App and give Notre Dame film to look at. Plus, all of the players from that 2007 team are gone and the current UM players won't play harder because of what happened to Michigan seven years ago.

I'll take us in the NC State game as well. 23 points is a typical margin of victory for a top SEC team over us. I doubt a lower-tier ACC team can beat us like that.

Yes, but don't forget how difficult it is to play in Legion field...the line may not move.

I may open up a 5Dimes account just for our spread...no way NC State covers that...no way.

1 point says its a toss up.

I don't think it is. Troy should take that game.

The others look about right.

If Michigan could beat us 1,000,000 to -1,000 they would.
We do have different talent, which leads to different opportunities.
They thought they had speed before. They were bragging about it
pregame.
If they had to choose between beating App State or Notre Dame the next week, believe 95% of the Michigan fans would take beating App State, even though their series with Notre Dame is ending maybe forever.
