- UM/Oregon Prediction

[Old/Adv/Featured2.htm]
Michigan Oregon
Offense
Michigan has been able to run at will.  If the Wolverines can continue to do so it'll be a long day for the Ducks.  If not the passing game will need to get on track.

Advantage- Michigan

Defense

The defense has been spectacular.  They lose shutout but continue to dominate.

Advantage- Michigan

Special Teams

The Wolverines have their best return threat in Steve Breaston since Desmond Howard  The placekicking still is a question mark...

Advantage- Even

Intangibles

Oregon has one of the loudest stadiums in the country.  This is first time that the Wolverines will play in a hostile environment this season...

Advantage- Oregon

Prediction

Michigan flexes some Big Ten muscle and wins easily.

Michigan 35 Oregon 10

Go Blue!
