Michigan picked 4th by writers

The world is finally realizing that Harbaugh's coaching ability is a myth. I, too, once thought having him at Michigan was bad for us, but like with Narduzzi at Pitt, I hope he stays there forever.

I think we beat Michigan at the Big House, and I think we have a very good chance of beating OSU at home at night. The game that scares me is MSU.

MSU needed a monsoon and everything that came with it to pull off a 3 point upset at home last season. OSU and Wisconsin at home and UM on the road should all be stiffer tests than MSU at home coming off a bye.

I mean, stats can typically be "cherry picked" to favor any side in an argument. 2 years seems to short of a period...10 seems arbitrary

Not when you're talking a trend line like PSU has right now. The last 2 years tell the story on PSU better than any right now.

The bye week helps but it follows Ohio State....could still be too high or too low following the game. I do agree Michigan State is the least scary game of the 4 but I can also understand why some are scared by it. Iowa worries me a little bit too with Michigan and Wisconsin following it--easy to look ahead there.

I disagree but I understand where you're coming from.

Franklin with a full compliment of scholarships isn't a fair and defined point to track data from?

I'll tell you those writers really, really , know their stuff.

2 years/games isn't enough to create a trend...if you want to say their is sufficient data available then I'll agree with that but 2 games isn't working.

Since Fries is sure to see a lot of action, not sure how we can lose.

Burn his shirt!!!! Just kidding. Had to do it!
