UM 10/1 =

 

[TooTall]

They just lost to South Carolina, and have a pretty mediocre recruiting class coming in. Yet they’re 10:1..

10 to 1, Michigan Man will race to drop money on that not realizing he should be getting 25 to 1.

I wouldn't go that low, but I'd absolutely put money on Sparty or Cheese to win it at 25-1 before I would on Michigan & SimpLLLe Jim.

Must be all in on Shae Patterson being a mega stud and leading them to the promise land.

If hes even ruled eligible, and even if he plays really well, scUMs ceiling is 10-2, IMO.

 

[lvbuckeye]

They ain't winning ten games with that schedule.

USA Today's too early poll.

Clemson (sick of these guys and ready for them to start sliding back to their historical mean)
Bama
Ohio State

Michigan at 16th and 5th in the Big Ten. Man, that 9 mil a year is really starting to pay dividends. Enjoy that Little Brown Jug, Michigan Man.

 

[BigWoof31]

Back us up to 12-1. We graduated our entire backfield, lost both senior DE's and the best linebacker in America.
We will regress.

10-2, beating the hell out of Wisconsin in the Citrus Bowl.

10-1, seriously? That tells you something about how the DFBIA rolls in Vegas.

 

[ORD_Buckeye]

10-1, seriously? That tells you something about how the DFBIA rolls in Vegas.

And it's going to be the only time that simpLLLe bastard has 10-1 associated with his team.

Way too early point spread too:

OHIO STATE OPENS AS 31-POINT FAVORITE AGAINST OREGON STATE
