how high will Michigan be ranked after this upset of ND? thoughts? just took a look at the remainder of the schedule for Michigan, and the only game that worries me is @ Penn st and of course @ Ohio st....
Michigan
- Thread starter Rcxslam
- Start date
minnesota in the dome looks like the biggest potential slip-up spot. gophers arent great but thats a difficult place to win. cant imagine michigan being more than a 2 or 3 pt favorite in that game.
I think Michigan goes to 6.
I think it will be
OSU
Auburn
USC
WV
Florida
Michigan
Texas
Georgia
LSU
ND

They'll be ranked high for only one week b/c next Saturday they'll let down and fall to the Badgers in The Big House...
OK, maybe not. Can't blame me for wishful thinking, though! Wolverines looked uber-impressive today. The OSU game very well may determine a berth in the national title game as I expect both to be undefeated.

But to what team? They should bitchslap my alma mater next week; I don't think much of PSU. Gophers on the road? Maybe, but unlikely. I just don't see any landmines prior to OSU for the Wolverines. I hope you're right, though... not a fan of the maize and blue at ALL.
97' ring a bell ? by the way that was my freshamn year at Michigan...spoiled me silly for the next 3 years, I was expecting to win one every year after that...:mj07:
it looks like a potential slip up......but remember one thing.....after Minny's win last year at Ann Arbor they ran to the 50 and stuck their flag in the field........Mich DOES remember that......
the key for them is to not feed into the hype they'll be receiving after this week and handle business against the Badgers and their big oline.....
to answer your ? about the ranking.....i was thinking around 6 myself.....however Kirk Herbstriet has them #3 in his top 5......take it for what its worth
I think Michigan should be ranked in the top 5 for sure...can't argue against OSU, USC, and Auburn ranked ahead of U of M...
As always this time of year polls could be argued so many ways. Does this game mean Michigan is really good or ND was very overrated? Or Both? I would probably go like this:
1. OSU
2. USC
3. Auburn
4. Florida
5. Michigan
1. OSU
2. USC
3. Auburn
4. Florida
5. Michigan
i understand auburn has played a tougher schedule so far but i think florida is better. would have to go
ohio state
southern cal
florida
auburn
michigan
on a side note, if bush (and now brohm for that matter) were healthy, id seriously consider louisville a fringe top 5 team too. i know miami isnt what theyve been but to do what they did sans bush on that D is might impressive. shame we'll never know.

WOnt happen....but we could very easily be looking at 4 unbeatens from major conferences come year end...
OSU/Mich
LVille/WVa
USC
Auburn/Florida - heck even Georgia could do it
OSU/Mich
LVille/WVa

that would be quite a dilemma...but I would have to go with winner of Big Ten and USC for the title game...
