Michigan versus Indiana - open thread
Go Blue, ladies and gentlemen. My predicted score in the guess the score game was 27-6 Michigan, but I think Indiana will score a little more than that. I also think Michigan will score a little more than 27. Revised prediction: 31 M, 20 I.
Also, it looks like rumors from yesterday about Green and Isaac are true, as they are not playing (or it might be that they didn't even make the trip). I am unsure, though, as I'm just stating what I saw on Twitter.

All the players, including @JabrillPeppers here, with #ChadTough written on the back of their helmets. pic.twitter.com/2ocmKKcYIN

Peppers officially has no more room on his helmet.

That is another reason why the stickers on Michigan's helmets are silly. I'm with Brian Cook in that I will never like them, though they would be better if they were small blcok Ms.

I've said it from day one. I realize...#HARBAUGH and all that good stuff. But I'll never be a fan.
The M's would be better, but nothing would be best.
Just make a huge board in the locker room and give them out. Or have the guys put them in their locker. Shit, do it online...for all fans to see. I couldn't less what the alternative was...just keep it off the helmet and the uniform. You can still do the exact same tracking/reward system.

Why mess with the most iconic helmet in football!
November 14th, 2015 at 5:44 PM ^
and I don't think it takes away from the best looking helmet in College Football with stickers applied. What exactly is the beef with them? I could see the stickers being smaller might be better but it's not a big deal with me.

According to @HenschkeScout, John O'Neill's crew is NOT doing #Michigan's game. It will be Don Willard's crew.

Timing-wise should be fine, as 3:30 ABC games usually start around 3:40. OSU game is almost over, but it's just a matter of someone being nice and turning on the UM game.
November 14th, 2015 at 3:17 PM ^
Still no word on anyone else...what would've been the problem with Smith and Isaac?
November 14th, 2015 at 3:26 PM ^
November 14th, 2015 at 3:28 PM ^
Ankle? If true, we should've saved him for MSU and then saved him for OSU...no need to keep pushing that thing.

OSU is running the ball. That should get the clock moving.
November 14th, 2015 at 3:23 PM ^
Win # 8
November 14th, 2015 at 3:25 PM ^
twitter says strobel will also play DL along with Poggi.
Fun fact - Strobel played OL late last week
November 14th, 2015 at 3:29 PM ^
He's played TE, DL, and OL this year...so he's back to DL. No real surprise. Probably for the best.
November 14th, 2015 at 5:38 PM ^
This didn't go so well....maybe could have go better if he rotating in with the first string studs and not the second string

Nobody cares about Syracuse football outside of Syracuse and I doubt that many people in Syracuse even care
Though they did say Rex Ryan is in attendance so that publicity whore may make for some good TV
November 14th, 2015 at 3:40 PM ^
Check ESPN2. They were advert'ing either the Cuse-Clemson game, or the Michigan - Indiana game, and then they kept it on Cuse-Clemson. Maybe they have it on ESPN2 in the out-markets.

So, who is available at RBs. OP says something but the comments seem to indicate that Smith is out. anyone know?
November 14th, 2015 at 3:32 PM ^
Johnson...Houma with some carries. Probably Higdon and RTD.
November 14th, 2015 at 3:33 PM ^
Thanks. That is very thin. Hope we can break some big plays and Rudock is on target.
November 14th, 2015 at 3:43 PM ^
But De'Veon is IN the game!

lol TCU is only up 6 to Kansas.
Oh wait, Boykin got hurt. Nevermind.
November 14th, 2015 at 3:33 PM ^
A back-up QB shouldn't matter. A team like TCU should still throttle them
November 14th, 2015 at 3:31 PM ^
17 seconds left in a 25 point game and the aholes go to a tv commerical break. ridicilous! greedy *****!
November 14th, 2015 at 3:31 PM ^
Anyone have a link other than firstrowsports to watch the game?
November 14th, 2015 at 3:32 PM ^
WatchESPN app
November 14th, 2015 at 3:31 PM ^
Wow. It must be really nice to win 30 straight conference games (OSU). My god. I always laugh when seeing OSU fans complain that they didn't win by more points. They're ridiculous. Just be happy that your team is winning, buckeye fan. You have NOTHING to bitch about.
November 14th, 2015 at 3:32 PM ^
We could probably outnumber them 2:1 if we scooped up the rest of the available tickets
