Michigan vs. Mississippi State in Gator Bowl

  • Cleveland Buck
    Mississippi State might put up 1,000 yards of offense.

    Meh, theyre all rushing pretty much. And not the kinda rushing that gives michigan trouble(power running game). Theyre a zone read type spread offense, its very winnable game for UM

    Probably not. Miss St. is 99th in passing in the country. That is what kills Michigan. I think they will do ok against their rushing attack. Miss St. will still put up some points. I think it will be a close game, but the score will be in the 30s.

    Michigan 35
    Miss St. 31

    I don't see UM showing up for this game. I see them laying down and allowing the last nail to be put in RR's coffin. RR's "emotional" outburst at the friggin banquet, as well as top recruits de-committing, leads me to believe there's more going on than is being reported, namely his seat is that of a lame duck. MSU on the other hand enters feeling they have something to prove, coming oh so close to beating Auburn, they will be hungry and looking to lay the smack down.

    Matchups aside, I see MSU by a couple scores.

    I agree there could be a let down. I am not a fan of the way Brandon is handling it, unless he knows there is someone else coming. And, officially, Michigan lost no top recruits. Hart never decommitted and has now said Michigan is still where he is committed to.

    They did lose another recruit, but it was not due to coaching, and most don't see it as a loss anyway.

    This is the game that RR has to win to be around next year IMO. Either they win big or loose big, it's up to the players and if they want RR around another year.
  • bo shemmy3337

    Yea he is not a big deal IMO. Michigan is strong at QB with 3 guys who will be able to play well next year IMO.
  • WebFire

    Yep. I was never a big fan of the commit to being with, and most were actually expecting a decommit. He committed to Wake Forest if that tells you anything.
  • ytownfootball
    OK, didn't hear the new news on Hart. I don't know though, just a gut feeling on what's going on in AA, I'd prefer them to win this bowl game.

    RR really needs to win this game with the blow out at OSU IMO. The players are going to get to decide his future IMO.
  • Tiernan
    scUM really did draw a fairly easy opponent in MissStake. Of the available teams, if RR had a choice who he wanted to play to save his job these guys woulda been towards the top of the list. Time to put up or shut up skunkweasels. I doubt you have what it takes to beat an inferior opponent.

    I don't want this game to have to be a win for RRod to stay. If it's that much up in the air, just let him go and move on. At this point I think I'm in the get rid of him camp.

    Be pulling for Mich but I don't see how they can beat a decent team.

    HAHA I think they are a better team and it's going to be up to the players to either want RR around or to want him out. I really don't care if he goes or stays.

    Mike Patrick, Craig James, and Todd Harris to call the game.

    Guess I'm going to mute the game. I'd rather listen to Mark May and Lou Holtz for a week than even see Craig James on the tv.

    Having Mike Martin healthy for this game will be huge.

    There will be a lot of guys who I feel will do much better on the defensive side of the ball. Getting away from football for a little bit is a good thing sometimes. Getting healthy is only going to help Big Blue.

    Is there any chance we get Woolfolk or Floyd back for this game?

    Also, will Woolfolk be applying for medical redshirt and come back next year?
