this is going to be ugly...

Considering taking Michigan at -34.5

Harbaugh can name the score. Will depend on how much he wants PT for the 2 and 3rd string, and to protect his starters from fluke injuries in what is a meaningless out of conference game.

MT will have a new starter at QB for the first time in four years, behind a line that has only two returning starters and injuries may keep those two off the field. Add to concerns about OL depth is a waiver to the NCAA for eligibility for a senior lineman was denied.

If MT offense moves the chains more than a half dozen times during the game it will be a moral victory. Defense will be exhausted, from being on the field so much. Just hoping the Raiders can stay healthy and get out of the game injury free.

Michigan was 6-7 against the spread last year. It could be 42-20 just as easily as 56-3.

Moderators, please just go ahead and delete thread. Thanks.

Good for her. I can't sit through even ONE of the beat-downs. I'll probably only be able to stomach the first ten minutes of the MT-UM game, unless we are much better than predicted...

I rarely agree with you but always appreciate your humor.

Not sure why you would rarely agree with me. Dahbeed says I'm the smartest guy and always right, so I mean there's that.

TOUCHDOWN BLUE RAIDERS!!!!

7-0

Raiders hold. 7-3 lead, Michigan punts.

Watching this on the BTN here....I'd love to see MTSU pull it off.

This is one game where ESPN's percentage thing is accurate. 1% chance of that.

So far so good. Need to continue!

This is one of those games where it looks cute in the first half and then in the second half 52-7. We can't do anything against that defense. And they are starting to gash our defense. Blowout is a matter of when not if.

Our defensive performance tonight should catch the attention of our conference mates. Our offense isn't anything to praise, but our defense is hungry.

Michigan still has starters in with 4 min to go.

TOUCHDOWN JIMMY MARSHALL. Now, Just give us our check and let's go back to the Boro! Don't think we have played all that bad. However, at this point, since nobody's hurt and we just beat the 34+ point damn spread. I'll take it. 40-21 ain't so shabby in the Big House.

We sustained a very big injury. Khalil Brooks went out with what looked like a knee injury in the first half and never returned. He is crucial to our defense.
