...to make it to that game. Otherwise, we'll have a new quarterback playing his first game on a very national stage.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:19 AM ^
Whoever the QB is, he won't have a shortage of weapons to give the ball to. Especially if Peppers is still around.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:21 AM ^
Unless Wilton Speight or a 2015 signee beats Morris out for the starting job by 2016 (the latter is obviously highly unlikely). 2017 is a long way off to be worried that we might be breaking in a new QB.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:08 AM ^
What's the line on this game?
What recruits will be there?
I can't believe they don't have rankings out for this.
IS NO ONE DOING THEIR JOB??????!@!@!!!!!!!

Will a true sophomore Henson Jr be able to beat out a senior Brady Jr?
December 19th, 2013 at 12:22 PM ^
Michigan is ranked #10, but mostly becaues O.C. Loeffler is breaking in a new QB. MGoBlog is split 50/50 on whether we should start true freshman Blontavious Margolionezstein or 5th year-senior, former walk-on, Chad Collins-Brady (Wilton Speight is a returning 1st team all-B1G tight end and is wearing Riermesma's legends jersey).
And of course, even though Michigan is starting five 5th year seniors on the Nation's best O-line, many of you are bitching that the true freshman 5-star kid from Ohio should should start at Left Tackle because he's "college ready."
Coach Narduzzi's Gators are ranked #11.

/ GIS "Night Sweats" and this popped up. Appropriate.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:07 AM ^
December 19th, 2013 at 10:07 AM ^
That leaves plenty of time to learn Georgia Southern's offense.

Cincy and Air Force at home plus the big 10 slate
MSU / Rutgers / Minny / Ohio State
Should be an interesting season but only 6 games
Would have preferred this game during a 5 home game B10 season
December 19th, 2013 at 10:28 AM ^
Only 6 home games and would have preferred it to be in 16 or 18. No biggie, that place was amazing and fun.

The whole "exposure" thing is only good for the program if we win, or at least lose close in an epic thriller. If we go down there and get our asses handed to us again, the only exposure we will have gained is more along the lines of a laughing stock from a weak conference. This type of game should be between two perennial top-10 teams. Here's hoping we make it back to that point over the next three years, otherwise this game could do more harm than good.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:33 AM ^
I'd love to see Michigan travel to C-Springs to play AF...that'd be fun for this AFA grad! Very scenic place to play a football game at the base of the Rocky Mountains.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:09 AM ^
Had a blast at the first one , even though the results weren't great. I'd definitely go again!
December 19th, 2013 at 10:10 AM ^
Who will the coaches be?
December 19th, 2013 at 10:29 AM ^
Scott Loeffler and Danny Wuerfeul
December 19th, 2013 at 11:14 AM ^
December 19th, 2013 at 11:47 AM ^
Oh, I was hoping that two fine RBs in Mike Hart and Tim Tebow would be matching wits on the sidelines
December 19th, 2013 at 2:14 PM ^
December 19th, 2013 at 10:11 AM ^
Sweet. Hopefully we won't have a new coach that year and be completely outmatched just like in 2012.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:13 AM ^
but I think it needs repeating...
You must be a blast at parties.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:15 AM ^
You should attend one sometime.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:16 AM ^
Not if you're in attendance.
December 19th, 2013 at 2:06 PM ^
Your place or mine? I heard something on the StarFleetWeb about Vulcan and an explosion?
December 19th, 2013 at 10:11 AM ^
well hopefully they can't get better too quickly either.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:17 AM ^
December 19th, 2013 at 10:17 AM ^
Well, at least this time it will be more of a road game for BOTH teams. The game against Bama was not a "neutral site"...not that it really mattered, but still.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:20 AM ^
Dave Brandon is doubling down on the strength of schedule argument for the playoffs. I hope it pays off.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:34 AM ^
I'm not sure Florida is really a positive for SoS
December 19th, 2013 at 10:42 AM ^
December 19th, 2013 at 12:35 PM ^
Especially as a Big Ten team.
December 19th, 2013 at 11:01 AM ^
How do you figure? While FL is a gamble, the rest of the OOC games aren't exactly examples of strength and the B1G could weak. I think this is more of a recruiting move and to show we're back. Gives Hoke 3 more years to get his players fully functional and rocking. Assuming that is what happens.

You're trying to put a sexual spin on the idea?
December 19th, 2013 at 11:05 AM ^
Sounds painful.
December 19th, 2013 at 1:02 PM ^
Tell us what you really think
December 19th, 2013 at 10:30 AM ^
Hate the neutral site games. Just takes everything that's fun about the college game and flushes it down the shitter.
Like scheduling these teams, just find a way to put them on campus. Theirs and ours.
I see as usual, Don said it much better. /\
December 19th, 2013 at 5:30 PM ^
Bilbo? Baggins of the shire?
December 19th, 2013 at 10:12 PM ^
it was possible to schedule a home and home with a southern team where they come up in November...the trade off of course would be asking Michigan to play at their place in the humidity of the first weekend of September...that would be a true home and home
December 19th, 2013 at 10:30 AM ^
December 19th, 2013 at 1:48 PM ^
It's that SEC Scheduling.
Also they have two BCS level instate rivals in Miami and FSU. I don't know how often they play both teams but the real travesty is the world's largest cocktail party where they get a de facto home game in Jacksonville and never have to play between the hedges.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:30 AM ^
Please god, let this be the small push in recruiting we need to keep kids interested until we start playing to our potential
December 19th, 2013 at 10:33 AM ^
is a turd of epic proportions. Maybe its Brandon's fault or maybe this is just the reality of college football these days where "elite" programs refuse to do home and homes, but either way it sucks.
December 19th, 2013 at 10:46 AM ^
MSU got Oregon to do a home and home. OSU got VT and Oklahoma to do home and homes. I think this is all Dave Brandon.
December 19th, 2013 at 11:33 AM ^
Yeah we've also got VT doing a home and home with us. Along with UCLA and Arkansas.
