Yes, there is intrigue in the final 3 games for Michigan | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press

It's tough to imagine, but Ohio State's inconsistent offense actually might give Michigan a chance. While Terrelle Pryor can do crazy things running the ball, if Michigan can force him to pass, he could make bad decisions. The Buckeyes might play conservatively, especially if there's a Rose Bowl berth on the line, but Michigan will be able to employ every trick with nothing to lose. It's kind of interesting that this is the year Ohio State is vulnerable.
:rofl:

vulnerable?

If Ohio State is "vulnerable" this year then what is Michigan?

They can go ahead and force Pryor to pass, just like they tried to do with Justin Siller, that didnt work out too well for them

And UM's secondary could stop underachieving, Al Davis could stop meddling, and politicians could live up to their promises. Pryor may be limited at times, but he's done quite nicely at avoiding bad decisions.

What trick is that? Justin Feagin? Antonio Bass?

I'd be interested to hear a WVU fan go into detail about whether much trickeration was employed by RR over the years.

A little harsh, don't you think? It isn't like TSUN is a team with only two wins so far.

Only in Detroit would a sportswriter believe that a 2-7 scUM team who has lost, among other games, at home to Toledo and against Purdue (who was previously winless in the Big Ten and starting a 3rd string QB), would have a chance against #12 ranked OSU in Columbus. There is no limit to the arrogance/homerism of scUM sportswriters.

Don't kid yourself. There are writers at the Toledo (dull) Blade who already have their tsun victory stories written.

I hope they think they can win. That way when they lose, they can look back on it and realize how fucking stupid they looked when they actually thought they could win.

If our defense keeps playing like it is right now.....

Since when is it a bad decision to throw at Morgan :slappy: Trent?

Before the season I thought Ohio State would beat UM by 2 or 3 TDs, but...

if Ohio State can only score 16 points (Purdue) then UM might just have a chance. 3 games this year without an offensive touchdown doesn't exactly have me brimming with confidence about any of the remaining games.

Purdue didn't have Threet. Yeah, Painter lost his job to a freshman, but he's still better than Threet. Threet telegraphs the play about as bad as anyone I've ever seen. I can't wait to see him try to carry the ball against our D.

If our OL decides to show up, then we tear scUM a new ass...
