  Not a bad article, but it's major flaw is that it is based solely on the spring game. This offense will not look anything like the spring game.

  agreed. I'm sure he will revisit it before the game. However that's all there is to go on right now.

  Only if you haven't paid attention to practices and press conferences.

  Getting rid of the Victors walk sucks. Got to see it once a couple years ago.
  
  As for this game, I'm thinking 31-20. I think special teams will be a mess and the D will give up a couple huge plays.

  45-17.
  
  UM actually makes a field goal in this one.

  How confident are you guys that they will cover the 13 point spread?

  Sound like Kelvin Grady and Vincent Smith will be on KR duty, while Jeremy Gallon will be PR.

  Good luck to Michigan this year!

  And there it is. Cam Gordon and Ricky Barnum suspended for today's game.
• WebFire

  Correction: Cam Gordon is out due to an aggravation of an injury.
• WebFire

  Marell Evans and Stephen Hopkins also out. Grrrrrrrrr.

  I see we still cant get off the field on 3rd down or stop a pass
• Hb31187

  

  And 1 guy on 2 wr's....really?
• WebFire

  Nice drive by Western. If they can keep that tempo up, Michigan could be in trouble.
• robj55

  

  Not a good start for Michigan defensively, gotta be better than that.

  Is it me or does Michigans secondary look the exact same as last year? Giving huge cushions and letting the opposing QB nickel and dime us all the way down the field
• krambman

  

  That looks like the Michigan defense I grew to know and love last season. Giving up a TD to Western Michigan on their first possession.
  
  7-0 Broncos

  No amount of coaching or scheme can make up for having former walk-ons and MAC rejects on the field.
