I agree here, it was an upset in every sense of the term. Missagain is better than they showed and if Oregon doesn't realize this they are going to find themselves in a horrible trap. But like I said, if they lose I will gladly let my 5K vbux go and call it the price for a week of joy :)

I don't agree. Michigan's defense is terrible. Sure, they can stop the run, and they can stop their own 1980s era offense, but that's it. Their secondary is terrible. We routinely torch them. USC beats them like a drum. Hell, now even Appalachian State has joined the fun.

Somebody else already brought it up, but do you realize that ASU's Armanti Edwards was avoiding Morgan Trent and picking on the other Michigan DBs? How bad is your secondary when QBs find easier targets to exploit than Morgan Trent?! Morgan Trent!!!

Michigan's back seven just isn't that talented. No amount of scheming or coaching this week will fix that. They're stuck with what they've got.

Special teams gaffes will keep this game interesting, but big plays will decide the outcome, and I think the blueprint for big play success is out there on film for every other coach preparing his team to play Michigan to see.

College Football Forum: MZone Exclusive: Mike Bellotti Interview

YOST: So what did you learn after watching the tape of Michigan's game last weekend against Appalachian State?
BELLOTTI: We didn't see it.
YOST: You didn't?
BELLOTTI: (shakes his head) We don't get BTN and Jim Delaney wouldn't send us a copy of the game unless we promised to carry the network for free on the jumbotron inside Autzen Stadium.
YOST: So how did you prepare for Michigan this week?
BELLOTTI: Same way everybody does - we just watched the Syracuse game from '98 when Donovan McNabb shredded the Wolverine defense. We didn't need to watch anything more recent because the same thing has worked against them every time for the last nine years if you have a mobile quarterback.
