Michigan will when, it doesn't matter where they play. We played them in a monsoon which tool away our speed advantage and still beat them. Penn State doesn't have a good O-line and they have a quarterback who makes bad decisions. The Michigan defense could win this one by themselves.

So you don't think any of these can happen?

Nope!

I think Michigan's defense will slack off a little from the get-go and find themsevles in an early 10-0 hole. Connor, Shaw, and Posluzny will cause havoc on Michigan's running game. Henne will have to win this without Manningham, I think the game comes down to how well he plays.

I don't think Michigan's defense will slack off at all. Michigan will shut down the run and dare Morelli to beat them, he can't.

I think your right about Henne, though, how well the Michigan offense plays will have to do with how well he responds to the crowd situation. Happy Valley will be a zoo tomorrow. If Henne keeps his composure and doesn't throw a bunch of picks, Michigan will win easy. Penn State has Posluzny playing out of position. The Penn State D will be aggressive and the Michigan offense will hit the screen to Hart all day. Adrian Arrington will pick up Maningham's slack.

Penn State's O-line will lose the battle of the trenches. It isn't going to be a close game. Not close at all.

Got your message from Fantasy Sports BruinBlue ....... I accepted the bet for 100 CFP Bucks and took the Ducks over the Bruins.

Enjoy the game.

By the way, I see you may be a little short on CFP Bucks ....... I'll take an IOU, but if you don't cover I'll have a couple of the boys from South Philly pay you a visit. You'll recognize them right away. They will be the ones in silk suits. :lol:

Looks like Vandy did it!

I'm not going to say I predicted these upsets, but I will say that Iowa was terribly overrated and they were ripe for an upset, but I didn't think it would come against Indiana :shock:

And I did think that Vanderbilt was due to upset somebody, but I didn't think it would come against Georgia :shock:

A tip of the long-neck and cheers to you and the Commodores, TDDVandy. :wink:

NO DOUBT. I actually thought Georgia's lack of offense would keep the game close, but I guess Vandy had other plans.

Indiana who? Whhhhooooosiers! Wow! What an upset. It's not like Iowa just didn't score, but Indiana just outscored em.

Iowa was vastly overrated coming into the game, but Indiana is Indiana. As in they're a team that got beat by Southern Illinois and lost to a pretty sad UConn team.
