UPSET ALERT?



Stole that picture from MGOBLOG, couldn't resist it. Look folks, I have seen more than a few NU over Michigan predictions for tomorrows game. It is possible I guess but don't see many scenarios where NU can deal with Michigan. Illinois destroyed their defense in about one half of football. Why would anyone think they can contain Denard Robinson? You know him don't you folks? He is the guy who takes the corect running lane 90% of the time and needs just a couple inches of daylight to slip through. That is just the start, if they find it necessary to throw the ball then who can stop that? All that without the mention of any of the four RB's.

Defensively? Well, Michigan has been good, very good. Giving up 31 points to ND is fine considering they are a high powered offense. NU is a poor mans version of ND. WMU is the only other team to hit the 10 point mark. Persa is not 100% and the NO.1 RB Trumpy is out for the season. So what I am saying is that an upset is possible but I just don't see it happening. A matter a fact, I think Michigan chicken kicks NU because they will be well prepared. There is no shock value when traveling to Evanston and NU is less than intimidating.

Minnesota is glorified garbage and have to travel to Purdue this week. Purdue by no means is a top tier team but will look like it this week.

Indiana is another place teams shrug off playing at their stadium. Indian will put up a bit of a fight but Illinois is will pull it out.

Iowa's passing game is rolling currently but PSU's defense will be charged for this one as well. I think this one is really close, Vandenberg cracks in the end.

Nebraska is upset about last week but at the same time do not look like the team they were hyped up to be at the beginning of the season. Ohio is in the bottom four teams in the Big-ten right now. If Ohio could score, they may keep it close, but they can't.
