Klatt predicts UM conference champions
Check out this article, which describes an appearance by Joel Klatt (former quarterback for Colorado) on our favorite The Herd with Colin Cowherd. In it, Klatt explains why he thinks Michigan will win the conference. Happy Friday!

It sure feels like it.. get through tomorrow and you'll hear many more pundits saying the same...
October 19th, 2018 at 12:21 PM ^
"Get through tomorrow..." That's a mouthful right there.
October 19th, 2018 at 3:11 PM ^
I don’t get you guys who probably alphabetize soup cans in your mother’s basement cupboards. Why do you worry so much? This is Harbaugh’s best team since arriving in Ann Arbor. 2015 should’ve been a win and don’t forget how badly the refs kept baby bro in the game. Was so pathetic. 2016 they kicked their asses but the final score wasn’t telling and then last year was a shit show with the young inexperienced team without an offense and they still could’ve won. They will handle their business tomorrow.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:32 PM ^
It's density... er, uh... destiny...
October 19th, 2018 at 5:11 PM ^
You were right the first time...
October 19th, 2018 at 1:51 PM ^
So, no need to play the rest of the games.
October 19th, 2018 at 4:27 PM ^
I don’t feel as though this team is playing close to its potential yet. That is both exciting and concerning. We should systematically dissect MSU if we coach and play near our potential.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:19 PM ^
Lets go!! I’m so fucking jacked for this game.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:21 PM ^
Gonna stay up extra late tonight so I can sleep through until 11:30 AM, wake up, cook some breakfast for me and the wife, then watch a Sparty ass-kicking!
October 19th, 2018 at 12:31 PM ^
Man....I wish it worked like that for me. I'm so used to waking around 7:00 on weekends anymore that if I were to go to bed after midnight, I'd still awaken around 7:00. It's very frustrating.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:33 PM ^
All in due time, I'm sure. I'm in that period of my life where I'm fighting to keep my bad college habits while knowing full-well it's a losing battle. I function much better when sleeping 11-7.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:53 PM ^
I have young kids. I can sleep on command. It can be 7pm after drinking pop at dinner and I can nod off on the couch. No problem sleeping in on weekends past my normal 5:30 wake up.
October 19th, 2018 at 1:15 PM ^
I've got the opposite problem - I can only sleep at night, and I suck at naps. They just make me cranky and I feel like I missed out on doing things. Maybe I just need to slooooow doooooown a bit.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:33 PM ^
It only takes you 30 minutes to get out of bed and make breakfast for two? What are you making, Eggo's and microwaved bacon?
October 19th, 2018 at 12:36 PM ^
Blueberry pancakes, bacon, eggs, Grands butter flake biscuits, coffee. It's ready right as the ball is kicked off. Got a big griddle, makes it all possible in one go.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:58 PM ^
Oh, so one of these. Gotcha.
"Just stay in bed, honey. I'll let you know when breakfast is ready."
*wink wink*
October 19th, 2018 at 1:12 PM ^
Huh, microwave?
October 19th, 2018 at 1:28 PM ^
Stud.
October 19th, 2018 at 5:16 PM ^
Pictures or it didn’t happen
October 19th, 2018 at 12:36 PM ^
1 package of pop-tarts for the two of them.
October 19th, 2018 at 2:41 PM ^
No kidding. I need to drink a pot of coffee before I even think about moving.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:54 PM ^
You're going to miss the Chelsea- Man U match then
October 19th, 2018 at 1:47 PM ^
Nope, won't miss it in the slightest.
October 19th, 2018 at 2:52 PM ^
As a currently depressed man U fan, I will be on my couch with my away jersey on ready for Man U to get their ass kicked at Stamford Bridge. Coffee if the game's going ok, beer if it turns ugly quickly. Yes, at 7:30am.
Side question, does Jose get canned after Chelsea wins by 4?
October 19th, 2018 at 3:43 PM ^
Haha Jose Mourino will basically be like this blog in 2014 with Hoke if he loses tomorrow!
October 19th, 2018 at 2:45 PM ^
I’m going to go hunting in the morning. Hopefully put some venison on the ground before the game.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:29 PM ^
His mouth to God's ears. Make it so.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:32 PM ^
I prefer the narrative that we are dog shit, can’t win a road game and do not stand a chance Saturday.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:34 PM ^
Someone has subscribed to Dantonio's Disrepekt Dogma.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:33 PM ^
More disrespkt ammo for Dantonio.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:34 PM ^
Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:34 PM ^
If we get through tomorrow, I'll start to believe it's really possible.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:36 PM ^
FWIW, Cowherd has been complimentary of Harbaugh all season. But this Klatt fella is clearly knocking it out of the park.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:56 PM ^
Cowherd has always loved Harbaugh, even right before and after the interview incident from a few years ago he was still all about him.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:37 PM ^
I enjoyed this article thanks
October 19th, 2018 at 1:05 PM ^
Same. So much so that I had to close my office door.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:42 PM ^
I like what Brian said on the MGoBlog Roundtable about this...."no comment." We've been in the spot before, and have seemed to consistently fall short.
There are a lot of demons to exorcise before we get to that point. If Michigan is fortunate enough to win tomorrow, I'll start sipping the kool-aid. But tomorrow is going to be a huge physical, mental, and overall emotional hurdle to overcome.
Can they do it? Abso-friggin-lutely. Will they? We'll find out about 27 hours from now.
October 19th, 2018 at 1:07 PM ^
I know what you're saying, we've been burned in the past A LOT, but this year is different. For one thing, they have our respect. They heard what these guys did to Penn State last week, for the second year in a row, and 4 out of 5 I believe; the same ratio they've beaten us. They have our attention. No bulletin board material, plenty of respeck to go round.
I'm not going to write anymore, a part of me is sensing someone from RCMB cutting and pasting, and sending this on to Coach D, "Look what this victors2000 wrote about the team. I have it on good authority this is none other than Shea Patterson..."
October 19th, 2018 at 4:08 PM ^
We've been saying "this year is different" almost every year for the last several years. I've got to see it to believe it, because this is usually the part of the season where things slowly start to unravel. Start strong, get stonewalled by MSU, and then the rest of the season's goals fall apart from there.
I will definitely say that the signs of progress are very encouraging, especially on the OL. Our record does not feel like fool's good like it did to a degree this time last year. But I think tomorrow will be the toughest challenge of the year so far. Yes, I do think it'll be tougher than ND. Is MSU better than ND? No. But this is a huge mental challenge for this team. MSU knows how to get in your head and make you play outside your comfort zone. If Michigan gets out of EL tomorrow with a W, dare I say even a convincing win, I'll hop on board with the "this year is different" mantra. But I've been burned one too many times for prematurely getting on the hype train.
Ask me again this time tomorrow.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:42 PM ^
Predictions are great but the past few years we have been let down. Hopefully they still hurt from last year and will come out firing like they did against Wisconsin. Hit them hard and fast! Last week Lewerke was harrased a lot, we need to harass and sack a lot!! It will be interesting to see if we come out running or passing.
October 19th, 2018 at 1:03 PM ^
I think the revenge tour is a real thing for this team. I'm not going to worry about whether they come out fired up until Indiana.
October 19th, 2018 at 12:43 PM ^
i predict gary doesn't play tomorrow
October 19th, 2018 at 12:59 PM ^
BOLD prediction is BOLD
October 19th, 2018 at 12:43 PM ^
I’m starting to like Klatt, I can’t get enough of these vibes
October 19th, 2018 at 12:48 PM ^
If Michigan gets up big or it becomes evident that they will win in the 4th quarter, I hope Klatt City really lays it on thick during the broadcast.
Klatt City, bitch, Klatt Klatt City, bitch. Ten, ten, ten, twenty on yo titties, bitch
October 19th, 2018 at 1:26 PM ^
That's catchy,,,
October 19th, 2018 at 5:26 PM ^
For what it's worth I upvoted.
