ANYONE ON MICHIGAN HERE? CANT BELIEVE MICHIGAN IS FACING THEIR 3RD LOSS ALREADY. BEEN READING SOME OF THE POSTS, & SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF MADJACKERS ARE LIKING THE GOPHERS TONIGHT. ONE CONCERN I HAVE IS THE MICHIGAN SPEED. I HAVENT SEEN MINNESOTA PLAY EXCEPT FOR SOME AGAINST PENN ST. THEY REALLY DIDNT IMPRESS ME THAT MUCH. IT SEEMED THEY WERE A LITTLE SLOW?

I'D APPRECIATE ANYONES TAKE ON THIS GAME. ALSO THE TOTAL SEEMS ABOUT RIGHT(54). ANYONE PLAYING THE TOTAL?


THANKS & GL!!!

I mentioned earlier in the week that I'm playing Michigan in a 3 team parlay with Colo St. and TCU. I also teased this game to get Michigan +7 1/2. I'm with you on the speed factor. Michigan has owned the Gophers on their own turf. ESPN stated Michigan's won the last 9 in Minnesota. Let's make some money tonight.

GL JOE. IM JUST SUPRISED OF THE PLAY OF NAVARRE. I REALLY THOUGHT HE WOULD HAVE A BIG YEAR ALSO ID LOVE TO SEE MICHIGAN OPEN UP THEIR OFFENSIVE ATTACK:shrug: THEY HAVE THE SPEED AND WEAPONS BUT YOU CANT ALWAYS BE SO DAM PREDICTABLE.

ANY OVER UNDER OPINIONS? THANX AGAIN!!

one thing is this game means alot more
to the gophers than michigan. all week
the media in the twin cities is claiming
that this is the turning point in minnesota's
program and a possible jump into the top 10
with bcs consideration. the metrodome should
be close to being sold out ( with minn fans, not
like when they play wisc & iowa, and its 1/2 filled
with their fans) and should give minnesota a
larger home field advantage than they've had
in the past. i rate both teams as being pretty
even with the edge to minn. in qb, home field,
and coaching (unless mason starts coaching
"not to lose" if he gets a lead in the late 3rd q
or early 4th, like he's done in the past against
osu, purd, wisc). i see minnesota winning by
7-10 pts.

Gonna' be a great game to watch.

This game is tough for me and so is the rest of the card.

Can't see a decided advantage to either side.

Maybe a small play on the under.

I'm a Michigan season ticket holder, but I don't bet with my heart.
That being said.......
So far, Michigan is 0-2 on the road this season and Navarre is 0-6 vs ranked opponents. Larry Stephens is hobbled by injury and Jeremy LaSueur was injured last week vs Iowa.

With 2 losses, Michigan season is already a huge dissapointment, but they are still a very dangerous team.

Michigan will expose Minnesota tonight. Ruining other teams seasons is all they have left to play for.

I dont know a lot about Minny but I was @ the Iowa/Mich game last week and although I am an Iowa fan Mich really should have won that game.

They put up a lot more yards etc.. but had some silly turnovers,silly punt formation that cost them..

But Mich did a great job of shutting down Iowa's running game.Iowa has a super back and really solid offensive line and Mich really made the yards hard to come by.

If the running game is a big part of Minnys offense I think Mich will really buckle down and make it hard on them.

I think Mich gets in front early-- just like they did last week--silences the crowd and eliminates silly mistakes.

Mich 27 Minn 14

THANKS GUYS FOR THE INPUTS! IM LEANING TOWARDS MICHIGAN AS I HAD THEM TOP 5 IN MY PRESEASON POLL. ONLY THING THATS HOLDING ME BACK FROM A RATHER BIG PLAY IS WHETHER OR NOT THE MICHIGAN KIDS HAVE THROWN IN THE TOWEL? I KNOW THEY WILL STILL GET UP FOR THE OHIO ST. GAME BUT WILL THEY GET UP TONIGHT AFTER A LOSS & PLAYING ON THE SHORT WEEK:shrug:

CANT IMAGINE TAKING THE UNDER IN THIS ONE THE OVER MAY BE A HUGE PUBLIC PLAY THOUGH, SO ILL FOCUS ON THE GAME. AS FOR NOW MICHIGAN WILL BE A 3 UNIT PLAY & MAY GO TO 5 OR 6 UNITS BY GAME TIME. MY BIGGEST PLAY SO FAR HAS BEEN A 2 1/2 UNIT PLAY:shrug:

WELL GOOD LUCK TO ALL THOSE WHO WAGER ON THIS & ENJOY TO THOSE WHO ARE JUST GONNA WATCH IT

If Michigan was still at one loss, I may agree with this, but not with the Wolves fresh off their second loss to Iowa last week. What do you think the media has been saying all week in Ann Arbor :shrug: LOL

Good luck everyone.

Flip a coin on this one, but i think it lands on mich. this game is just as big to mich as it is for the minn. mich can not go 4-3, they need this one and should come out on top .

game should come down to the 4th qtr.
good luck

MINNESOTA 23

 

[boilermaker]

Good Luck Wox, like Mich. also.

 

[A1Capper]

Michigan will make this one look easy. I agree, they can't afford to lose, and Big Programs usually handle these type games.
