chiefjay Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 (edited) Cold and Rainy in Ann Arbor is the forecast. Could make for an Ugly, sloppy, defensive struggle. I say it's a barometer game for Lloyd Carr. UM 19-13. TOS / SacoAthena, you're going down. Edited November 15, 2005 by chiefjay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacosud Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 It's OHIO STATE vs michigan..."nuff said" I really do not know what to expect in alot of ways OHIO STATE and michigan look alot alike this year. OSU's offense is playing a little better as of late but this should be a defensive battle. Guess we shall see Sat. at 1:00 pm chiefgay. Just kidding Chief, I hate Michigan but respect Michigan if that makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWPFFL BrianW Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Michigan is quetly putting together a nice season despite a rough start. They should be able to win at home, but Ohio State is playing much better as well. Both teams come into the game hot. I expect a defensive struggle like most Michigan-Ohio State games. Cooper aint there anymore, so I don't automatically pick Michigan. It is once again, a toss up rivalry since Tressel took over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeohiostate Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 I cold windy atmosphere is just the game we want. Pittman has been running very well, Smith has the ability to move the chains and i'm sure Carpenter and Hawk are chumping at the bit to snuff out Henne and Grady. Michigan running game not the same without Hart and poor conditions favor the Bucks who don't rely on a passing attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll see Mr. Grady alright but you'll also see Mr. Hart for at least 15 carries assuming that ankle holds. Should be a good one. Won't get too watch much unfortunately with the kids activities from Noon to 3:30 but should be able to catch the last quarter. This game should be a mandatory 3:30 kick off every year.

Swashbucklers Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 If it is cold and rainy, doesn't that benefit Michigan? With the outstanding receiving duo of Holmes and Ginn being contained by the weather, shouldn't that give Michigan an advantage? Just wondering, because if I was Carr gameplanning, I would hope for rain to slow Ginn down and cut into Holmes' numbers! Maybe I am wrong, but I have seen plenty of games for both teams and I would say that the Buckeyes' have a more potent aerial attack!

Breaston been playing at his best lately, Manningham playing well as a freshman and Avant is a potential NFL starter. My concern is Henne, maybe it's just my Michigan paranoia but I'm just not confident in his throws, too many turnovers this year. Oh well, will hope for 150 yards of Mike Hart and some Henne where necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theeohiostate Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Love the call from Tressel to give Pittman a break in the 2ND QUARTER of the BIGGEST game of the season, and have Wells juggle the handoff and fumble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theeohiostate Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 how bad is Youbouty? 1160243[/snapback] By far their worst player on defense. Not even close, any team they play goes after him right away. I would think Tressel would have Salley blanket any WR that Yo'catchtheballanythimeonmeBouty covers.

theeohiostate Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Good 1st half by the Bucks, without the stupid personel decision by Tressel bringing in Wells to fumble it away giving Michigan their only drive of the half. Bucks controlled the first half well on the road in a hostile Ann Arbor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeohiostate Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 (edited) 2 Bucks turnovers aid the Wolves to 10 points. I doubt this Michigan offense will be able to put a drive together to score without some great field position by their defense of special teams. Any Bucks fans thinking this is looking alot like the Texas game? Edited November 19, 2005 by theeohiostate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
