No. 4 in Michigan
According to today's NYTimes College Football preview, Michigan is the fourth best team in the state of Michigan behind MSU, Western and Central. Of course, if memory serves in 2004 or o5, the Times preview had Michigan playing Louisville in the National Championship game.

Our lack of family values and how we treat our players like third world country sweat shop workers probably would hurt us.
August 30th, 2009 at 8:48 PM ^
Yeah but we did drop Nike so we are looking out for other sweatshops.
August 30th, 2009 at 8:26 PM ^
Two of those three teams are on the schedule, and if we have learned nothing else over the past year or so, and most especially in the past day, it really ought to be that the shit that emanates from the media is often wrong and doesn't matter once they play the games. Patience, grasshopper. Five more days. That's all we have until the Times is proven wrong on one of the three counts.

Good. Another thing to get the players motivated. They're hungry and ready to prove themselves.
August 30th, 2009 at 8:41 PM ^
The players are hungry now? What's your sources? Wow RR is in big trouble if he doesn't even feed his players.
August 30th, 2009 at 8:45 PM ^
Mike Gittleson fed them pizza. Rodriguez has let this program go to shit.
August 30th, 2009 at 8:48 PM ^
Well, how do you think he has got them all so fit 'n trim? Can't be from a lot of training and practicing.

They get chocolate milk from Barwis.

low-fat choclate milk though! don't want extra "punishment" by drinking the whole milk.
August 30th, 2009 at 8:59 PM ^
and I don't recall them being known for their sports coverage.

Saturday gives us a chance to move up in the rankings.
Love the meritocracy of college football.
August 30th, 2009 at 9:34 PM ^
The problem is that we actually might be the fourth best team in the state Michigan. We probably were last year.
August 30th, 2009 at 9:41 PM ^
And until we start playing games, it's still last year.
August 30th, 2009 at 10:41 PM ^
Even I don't think Michigan was better than the Lions. Put us at 5.
August 30th, 2009 at 9:42 PM ^
against the world.
Works for me.
August 30th, 2009 at 9:48 PM ^
baby!
August 30th, 2009 at 9:53 PM ^
5 days, 17 hours, 35 mins....so close....thank god
August 30th, 2009 at 9:56 PM ^
that is exactly what is brewing here. Wolverines against the world!
Take the Wolverines minus the points.
August 30th, 2009 at 10:26 PM ^
Can't wait for Saturday until we prove everyone wrong.
August 31st, 2009 at 3:26 AM ^
STILL not a rock of journalistic integrity.
