11 points...that line has to come down.
October 4th, 2015 at 3:59 PM ^
Honestly, I'm gonna be pissed if they score at all.

NW has been good as a team, but...
16 vs Stanford
19 vs Duke
24 vs Ball State
20 on offense vs Minnesota (and 7 of those aided by a huge return)
They are below average on offense. I expect us to shut them out too frankly
October 4th, 2015 at 8:08 PM ^
They scored a return touchdown against Duke, as well. They only scored 13 points on offense.
October 4th, 2015 at 4:02 PM ^
I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed but Stanford has been blowing the doors off of their opponents since the Northwestern loss. That NW defense is absolutely legit and being on the road won't affect them at all imo. UM's kicker is also suspect while NW's is pretty good.
I would give Michigan a 3 point edge at home but that's about it. It's going to be close.

Teams have letdowns in college last I checked. Taking the exception to the rule rather than the rule to prove a point usually does not work. They shut down Duke, Stanford, and Minn - 3 decent teams. Held a baby seal to 0 pts as well in the 4th game. Ball State was the exception.

We looked like crap against Maryland for a half too.
October 4th, 2015 at 5:36 PM ^
October 4th, 2015 at 7:36 PM ^
We looked perfectly fine in two of the three phases of the game in the first half. Just not on offense.

I guess, if by "humbled", you mean, "lost in OT after a crazy turn of events and/or an agonizingly offense-free game", at least the last three years. This game doesn't worry me the way playing an elite opponent worries me, but it does have that "Expect chaos" feel to it...

Was expecting at most UM by 3 (basically homefield advantge). VegasInsider now has the spread dropping to 9. Still a surprise, since they list De'Veon as questionable.
October 4th, 2015 at 4:07 PM ^
there. or to put it another way, take the cats and the points. think it will be a dogfight. our D is doing very well, but so is the cats' D - look what they did to a good stanford team. our offense is okay, but far from lights-out. should be a fun game to watch.
October 4th, 2015 at 4:08 PM ^
because we're still quite a bit under the national radar. People don't trust Michigan as of now. It feels like Northwestern gets a lot more love than we do, so one wouldn't expact us to be big favorites.

We're at home though, so it would be NELOM.

This is where you see Vegas steering the money a bit - people might take that bet on Northwestern. What's funny to me this time around is that if you used the Sagarin ratings for Michigan and Northwestern as line predictor (which some people do), you would get 6.84 (so, a TD - 88.01-83.88 then add the 2.71 HFA predictor) in favor of Michigan, which is actually what I thought it would have been before I saw this thread

It's already in the 6.84. 4.13 plus 2.71 HFA.

That's what they said about the BYU/Mormon faction.

the line has changed already to 10.5 pts.
October 4th, 2015 at 4:46 PM ^
All the way down to 8.5 already. Should settle at 7.5 or so.
