Badgers will play them tough.....especially if Hill is back. Will Carr play Hart, with the Bucks on the horizon?
I wouldn't if I were him. This game is no longer relevant to the Big Ten title. Michigan's status is clear. Beat Ohio State and go to the Rose Bowl - lose, and go to the C*****l O** Bowl, formerly known as the Citrus Bowl. Whatever happens against Wisconsin doesn't affect that. If I'm Lloyd Carr, I see this as a perfect chance to give Mallett, Brown, and Minor experience in a pressure cooker, which Camp Randall always is.

I hope they dont because Id love to see tsun try to skate this game and get smacked in the face. I think it will be difficult to get motivation for this game either way. Everybody knows now the only motivation they have left is the desperate chance to knock off the Big 10 king of the Hill. Even if they made the Rose there is a good chance they would get a lackluster opponent like Az state or Hawaii.

It is if you want an outright title...
True. However, if Michigan wins on the 17th, they get all the tangible benefits of an outright title anyway - the Rose Bowl, and bragging rights over OSU for a year. It'd be a shared title on paper only. And what coach (Don't say Lloyd :tongue2: ) would risk the health of his best players for the biggest game of the year on a quest for an "outright" title because "shared" just isn't good enough?

Michigan cant mess with what they have going.. they are a fragile team.. right now they are on a winning streak and I think that's important that they keep riding it.. cause to be honest, they are the type of team that if they had lost last week or lose this week, I think that takes them down a notch emotionally and confidence wise heading into The Game..

This is CFB... I dont think I've ever seen a team basically play it cool and rest the starters against a quality opponent..

This isnt week 17 of the NFL with the playoffs around the corner.. or the last day of the MLB regular season... I just honestly dont know if Ive ever seen a team or fanbase talk about resting the starters against a team like Wisconsin...

You only play 12 games a year.. u just dont hand one of them away cause it doesnt mean anything in the conference... I think Michigan would be messing with fire if they sat Hart or Henne..

Cause they will not win in Madison if they sit these two

That, I also disagree with. If this was the kind of team to get down after a loss and not play, they'd probably be 4-6 right now instead of reeling off an 8 game win streak following the Oregon debacle.

If Hart and Henne sit at Wisconsin, and Michigan loses, I think that only focuses them more. If Hart sees his teammates lose to Wisconsin without him, the #1 lesson there is that he's absolutely needed for the OSU game and he'll want to run that much harder.

This game could be interesting, I am still not sold on tsuns corners and Donovan can put the ball up. If Hart plays I expect he should have a huge day considering how Wiscys run defense has looked all season.
