the just released schedules were a flat-out statement that the B10 doesn't believe SOS will matter in playoff selection
THE KNOWLEDGE CHALLENGE: 2012.1
Filed under:
.
many is the number of people who live in the past. these people still debate and try to decipher the game against Alabama
.
most people wonder what would have happened if Michigan had retained Rich Rod as the OC. They also believe that with the personnel Michigan currently has, RR's offense would have lit up Alabama this year and Mattison's defense would not have had to work so hard - resulting in a Michigan win
.
that may be true, but THE KNOWLEDGE does not live in the past
.
THE KNOWLEDGE lives in the future
.
yes
.
as mentioned in the previous post, people should quit worrying and look forward to seeing Michigan go 12-1 the rest of the year
.
the first part of that starts with wins over Air Force and Mass
.
yes
.
THE KNOWLEDGE CHALLENGE makes its 2012 debut on these very pages now in a special manner
.
in this edition of THE CHALLENGE, you are required to predict the scores of both the AF and Mass games. there will be 3 POTW (Protege Of THE KNOWLEDGE) award winners at the end of the two games:
1. For the AF game
2. For the Mass game
3. For the cobined best predictor
.
ideally the POTW will predict both scores correctly and hence win the third automatically, but that, of course, will not happen
.
yes
.
as usual THE KNOWLEDGE shall now provide pointers to the games to make the score prediction:
- Michigan will win both games as noted above
- Neither game will be close
- Michigan will run and pass at will
- The defense may appear to struggle but will not in reality
.
yes
.
as usual, THE KNOWLEDGE shall soar and bask in glory
.
as will the POTW awardees
.
yes
.
