i agree...im a mighigan fan too but yeah i think they wont do so hot this year.
the notre dame/michigan was a good one today. i think notre dame will get far this year (even though 3/4 of the fans are Cubs fans)...Brady Quinn is a really good qb

Call me biased, but I said Michigan.
We've had a more than slow start and it's shown in the past two games. Hart has always been our strong point - so when he got hurt in today's game versus Notre Dame, more of the weight was on Henne and Avant, who happened to be having one of the most off games I've ever seen either of them play.
Michigan had more passing yards, I think we should have utilized our running backs a bit more. Grady and Martin do amazing things when put to task. I'd be surprised if I didn't see the number of running yards increase by next game.
On the topic of offense, our blockers were equally great.
As for defense, they definitely improved since last week, plenty of good coverage. Now all they need to learn is how to take advantage of opportunities to intercept. There were many times where I was sitting in the Big House, watching a long pass and being like, "OH! Dude, I think he's gonna intercept it... ... ... Okay, maybe not..." to the person next to me. But that's something that can be fixed, as well.
I say the next game will truly be a determining factor in how the rest of the season is played out. Michigan football is known for figuring things out quickly, I have complete faith in the Wolverines. Lloyd Carr knows what he's doing (even though, I have to admit, I had my moments when I was yelling at him to put Gutierrez in :p).

Personally, I think the off-ness was really due to Henne, Breaston, and Avant, three of our key players, being off. They had great dynamics last week, but everyone has their off games, guess this was it for them. Either that, or losing Hart on the offense in the first quarter skewed their plays in some weird and completely random way. It happens.
And nope, we have Lloyd Carr still. Amazing guy, we would have never made it to the Rose Bowl as much as we have without him.

Yee-haw Court! Brady Quinn is a fantastic QB. And if I get accepted this year, he'll still be there next year and he will rock some more. Anyone that gets personal instruction from Joe Montana....oh man...they're good.
I also appreciate the fact that they have a strategy for offense this year.
Yay for being Independent :)
I s'pose if we must chose a Big 10 School, I've got to go with WI. Yes, they have been pummeling some rather bad football teams, but at least they aren't beating themselves this year. That's a start...

I have a feeling its gonna come down to Ohio State vs. Michigan once again this year. After the tough game today I don't think Michigan loses again, plus I cant stand the buckeyes. Go Blue!
i think it will either be Michigan state vs. Ohio state or Purdue vs. Ohio state. those are my predictions.

MSU has always had a chance, and I'm pretty sure they have an even better one to goto the top this year. The UoM however is pretty much done for the season. I had to work concessions for today's game vs Notre Dame, and from what I saw, the crowd was not pleased. Every time UM screwed up with the ball in hand in the late game, 10K fans walked out and headed for their cars. Not kidding.
UM seemed to be doing the same things last week, the only thing was that they were playing a MAC team. So the game was decided well before the players took the field.
Of the list, Ohio state and UM are maybe's. MSU is better however and they get my vote.

PS: UM plays EMU next week. GO EAGLES!!!

Penn State all the way baby!!! Wooohooo! It's just gotta be our year again sooner or later. With Mills gone, a new line up in line, a hometown boy Kilmer seeing lots of play time - I say it's my year to follow the Nittany Lion all the way to a bowl game!
Let's Go P-S-U!
There is no doubt in my mind that it will be Ohio State. They are going to control the Big 10. They just appear so dominant.
Personally, I think the off-ness was really due to Henne, Breaston, and Avant, three of our key players, being off.
were'nt you guys missing like 3 of your starting O-linemen today?
i think it will either be Michigan state vs. Ohio state or Purdue vs. Ohio state. those are my predictions.
I don't get it... what will be? Purdue doesn't even play OSU

UM didn't help themselves, but the officials lost the game for them. On Henne's first sneak on the goal-line (before he fumbled) he was clearly in for the score, but they didn't call it. If they get that score, it's a tied game with 3:00 left and UM doesn't even have to convert on 4th down.
At any rate, seeing as Iowa came out really flat today, I don't see any way not to pick Purdue. They get to miss OSU AND UM. That's one hell of a break.
i didn't mean they will actually play them. I think it will be Purdue or OSU fighting for the championship. There is no championship game for the big 10.
and now that OSU lost last night i think MSU will have a better chance now because they will move up in the standings.
OSU looks better than Michigan this year with those recivers. They need to settle on one quarterback though. That two headed quarterback nonsense won't work. Once they get that settled there won't be any stopping them.

Just out of curiosity, is this poll rigged? I swear, I voted for Wisconsin last night and no votes have turned up for it yet. It hasn't even been tabulated, and yet, when I hit back on my browser to make sure that I had voted for WI (which I had) I was not allowed to vote again.
Anyone else having this problem?

The domers aren't part of a conference, although they should be forced to join one. They get all the benefits of being in a conference (BCS implications), without actually having to be in a conference, which shouldn't happen.
Last year they were telling teams that if they wanted to be added onto ND's schedule, they'd have to play at ND, giving them 7 home games (iirc). They're long off their glory days, but apparently they don't think so.

Fight for the only colors
Green and White
Go right through for MSU
Watch the points keep growing
Spartan teams are bound to win
They're fighting with a vim
RAH! RAH! RAH!
See their team is weakening
We're going to win this game
FIGHT! FIGHT! RAH TEAM FIGHT!
Victory for MSU!

After Saturday's game, I think U of M is warmed up for the remainder of the season (Finally! Geez). Although I wasn't at this one, from what I've heard Henne's got it together and as long as he doesn't let any of the wins get to his head, we'll be good to go. Hopefully Hart will be back soon, but I think the team has learned to adjust quite smoothly. Not to add that defense has improved a bit...

Yes you are right, but 3 of those wins were against Indiana teams. (MSU beat ND, MTU beat Indianapolis University, and Grand Valley State beat Indianapolis University)

Horrible. From being "in total control of the game", according to one of the commentators at halftime, to losing pretty much all control (defense giving up way too many yards, blockers not giving Henne enough time to throw), I really don't know what to say after that Michigan-Wisconsin game.
I said before that the third or fourth game in would determine how the rest of the season played out, and after yesterday's loss, I think the Wolverines have dug themselves a hole that'll be pretty hard to get out of. I've never screamed so much at the TV...
I feel like a bad Wolverine saying this the week before the Michigan-MSU game, but I'll have to agree with Stevie that MSU definitely has a chance to win the Big 10 now. With Stanton breaking a school record yesterday, he and the rest of the offense are on fire and nothing's putting that flame out.
And with that I say, "Hello, Wolverine hockey!"
:(

This weekend is in great anticipation here in Happy Valley. "Camp Nittany" has been set up outside of Gate A at Beaver Stadium since Sunday Evening, and now contains well over 40 tents. This morning, reserved-seat tickets began at 8:30. However, individuals were also camped out at the Bryce Jordan Center in that line in anticipation since Tuesday afternoon. My roommate waited since 6 am this morning, and received the third from the last row (87 ish) for our block of 20+ group.
Friday night kicks of "Rally in the Valley" just after the arrival of ESPN's College Game Day at 5pm. Either later that night, during the night, or first thing (6am) Saturday morning we will be going via caravan (5/6 vehicles) to our tailgating spot. We'll pitch a tent, throw up at least two "sun tents", a couple of grills, and be well planted until we leave for the 7:45 pm game.
Good Luck to everyone else this weekend!

I'm not sure how it is at Penn State, but at Wisconsin students have season tickets and exchange the 'vouchers' for actual tickets on GameDay. So you have to wait in line if you want the best seats.

Yup, same thing for basketball and hockey season tickets. Except for those you wait in line and get the same tickets for all year, which is a little better. This year we got 2 days notice that we got the tickets and that distribution was starting. We lub the athletic department. At least they did it earlier in the fall this year.

Yes, as students you may purchase season "vouchers" during the prior spring semester. Those "vouchers" can then be validated Wednesdays prior to home games for reserved group seating in rows 26-90 of your respective section (FR, SO, JR, SR, GR). However, if you choose to not validate your "voucher" you may wait in line for rows 1-25 Saturday morning prior to the gate opening. However, once they reach row 25, you will be in row 91+ (upper deck).
Cold Pizza (ESPN) was great this morning, the set was packed with students, and the HUB was packed with students.

Domination, you say? ;) The mark of a great team is shown in how they respond to adversity. Northwestern had this one circled on their calender and played an outstanding game, so I give them credit - but the way this young, banged up Wisconsin team rallied back after being down 17pts and nearly pulled it out was inspiring. Though they had some major gaffes, they played with the heart and resolve of a champion.

Friday night, PSU was announced the #1 Tailgating location in the nation at Rally in the Valley. The weather was cold, rainy, and miserable... however, we were up bright and early for an amazing spot on College Game Day ESPN. PSU was announced the #1 fan/student section today. A LONG day of tailgating, followed by an amazing game, and if you only knew the things that happened afterwords that didn't make national television. The rushing of the field in Beaver Stadium!

it was 34-31 TT.
Nebraska had the game won when one of it's Dlinemen picked off TT with like 1:20 left.
Instead of getting his 300 lb self onto the ground, he decided he wanted to take it 85 yards to the house.
and promptly fumbled the ball back to TT, who then scored a TD for the win.

So, I went to Hooters with one of my roommates today to watch the game. I've never been in a building with so many people, screaming, with loud TV's, etc, etc. It became very intense at times. When PSU made their first touchdown, then intercepted and returned for the second, the Hooters girls had everyone up doing "If you're happy and you know it: 1. clap your hands 2. say Hooters 3. say Penn State". All in all it was a very disheartening game. With only one second left, I have only been more heartbroken once in my lifetime, and that was in Houston. Let's hope we don't fall to far in the rankings.

Dear Kyle - I love you
Dear Cory - taken fromESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=2190981) God and 80,000 people want it this way: Notre Dame has beaten No. 1 a record eight times in its history, and there's a reason for that. From Touchdown Jesus on down, the entire storied program seems to rise to these occasions -- with a serious home-field advantage to go with it. No offense to Oregon or Arizona State, but this will be the toughest road atmosphere USC has seen.
Go Irish!
edit: ...and if you watched the full game, ND did actually win by the first calling of the refs. It was only after the students had stormed the field that the refs reconvened and decided to give USC 7 seconds and another chance. :(

Amazing win by the Wolverines yesterday, eh?
We really don't have the consistency to win the Big 10. Rivas' record in kicking isn't that great when it really matters, and Henne doesn't have Edwards to back him up when he throws an off pass anymore. HOWEVER, it was great to see some redemption, especially that kind of 1-second-left oh-my-gosh-what-is-going-to-happen redemption.
I predict Manningham to become even more of a leader on the team as the season progresses.
GO BLUE! :)

edit: ...and if you watched the full game, ND did actually win by the first calling of the refs. It was only after the students had stormed the field that the refs reconvened and decided to give USC 7 seconds and another chance. :(
And Pat Forde is an idiot. I can't believe he actually wrote that god wants ND to win (exactly the attitude that makes me hate the Irish so much). God has better things to do than chill over South Bend, Indiana each Saturday and root for the domers. His inbox is going to be full of hate mail, because quite honestly, that statement is pretty offensive to a large group of people.
They didn't "decide" to give USC a second chance, the rules of football gave SC a second chance. There was no kind of subjective judgement used in that second to last play (Other than when they had to spot the ball)
And if you want to get down to it, SC never should have been down 3 with time expiring. Earlier in the game, Samardzija caught a ball for a 3rd down conversion on the sidelines. But the thing was, he didn't catch it. After seeing the replay, he was clearly OOB. Had they had instant replay, ND punts the ball, and doesn't go on to score.
Amazing win by the Wolverines yesterday, eh?Yep. That was very nice, especially for an OSU fan. ;)

Just back from Minneapolis, amazing comeback win by the Badgers. It was glorious to parade around MN in our Red and chant down all the Gopher fans. 30,000+ Badger fans at a MN home game, plain awesome.
ON WISCONSIN!

Getting ready to Boiler Down this weekend in Madison for homecoming.
Sorry that Purdue is still reeling from that loss to us last year.
