Conventional wisdom defers. But Michigan might be foaming at the mouth enough to forgo that.
Either way, I'm ready to see some big chest-crushing hits.

I agree, they are foaming at the mouth. I also think the defense is going to be the weaker side, so I think RR will take the ball if he gets the pick

It'd be great if they came out slinging the ball.

Take it to the house!

I've always felt that nervousness, anxiety, and untempered excitement tend to derail an offense more than a defense.
Conversely, I've always felt that pent-up emotion, unwieldy desire, and an insatiable hunger for redemption contribute more to the effectiveness of a defense than an offense.
Ergo, put those bad motherfuckers out there. Turn them loose. If it moves and it ain't blue, they'll annihilate it.
WHAT HATH GOD WROUGHT?!?

For some reason I have this eagerness to see the offense take the field first and on the first play of the game just throw a deep seam pass to Koger down the middle of the field. Chances are slim to none that this will happen, but at 4 in the morning studying for anatomy down here in Columbus, it's the only thing I have to keep me sane until Saturday.

No I want to see Denard Robinson make a vicious cut and leave everyone diving at his heels while he takes a 50-yarder to the house. Just saying.

Medical School...not fun. Luckily though there are lots of UM alumni here so we have our small circle to watch games and talk anything that is UM.

Defense. Only because once I see Michigan take the field I'm going to black out in a moment of ecstasy. It'll probably take me one series to get my vision back, and I'd like to see the first offensive drive.

Ball first and drive it straight to the house. The crowd is gunna be so pumped after that TD you won't be able to hear yourself think. That puts pressure on Hiller from the start and could lead to big mistakes. This team is going to play like they have something to prove.

Take the Damn ball and ram it down their throats. RR is an offensive coach and I'm ready to see some fireworks! Unleash the caged animal and all beware.
September 3rd, 2009 at 7:35 AM ^
I don't know why, but I have a feeling they will not win the toss, and that WMU will take the ball. And then we will score on an interception on the second play.

Defer! Who gives a shit what is first hit them in the mouth or take it to the house. Big House football is back in 48 Hours. GO BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Because if they fail on that first drive I wont have a heart attack.
