West Mich +12.5 at TSUN (ov/un 56.5)

Taking WMU against my better judgment (betting with heart) and I'm betting the under with my brain. I think UM holds WMU from scoring too much while being fugly (errors) on offense.

You know, I was thinking of something today. What if scUM had a verteran QB last year that led them to, say, a 7-5 or 8-4 season with an offense compitent enough to give the defense a rest now and then and therefor not be comically bad? Then, said QB graduated and they lost several starters on defense. Now they have a true frosh QB that is apparently a starter in name only and a perilously thin defensive rotation. How would they envision this season going? That's considered a rebuilding year pretty much everywhere and expectations would be pretty low.

What I'm getting at, even though they *should* be better than last year, they still have a very young, skinny pair of QB's, Nick Sheridan, no gamebreaking WR's, a questionable OL and a thin defense. How many of them are thinking 8-9 wins simply based on DickRod's second year history, one in low level CFB and one at WVU where he played a pretty weak schedule (2 of those stops weren't even as a HC) seems questionable to me.

Forcier looks amazing!11!!11!!! as he throws to an absolutely wide-open receiver, and the announcers say that the memories of last season are now fading away.

Yeah, they'll keep on fading. Facing a shitty MAC team will do that to you. Let's see how long that lasts when they start playing real teams?

(And it's a mark of how shitty the scUM football program is that Notre Dame is counted among that list of "real teams")
