UM/Minnesota Prediction
[Old/Adv/Featured2.htm]
|
Michigan |
Minnesota |
|
Offense |
|
Michigan has been incredibly inconsistent on offense so far this
season. Minnesota is for real and the Wolverines will need
to put together a complete effort on the road to win- something
they haven't been able to this season...
Advantage- Even |
|
Defense |
|
The Wolverine defense will need to carry the day.
They are more talented than their Gopher counterparts and will
need to get the job done.
Advantage- Michigan |
|
Special Teams |
|
Anyone who has been paying attention knows that most high school
teams have better special teams than the Wolverines...
Advantage- Minnesota |
|
Intangibles |
|
Michigan is reeling and headed into Metrodome for
the biggest football game in recent history for the Gophers.
Add in the date change and playing on the worst surface to the
Big Ten and you have a recipe for disaster...
Advantage-
Minnesota |
|
Prediction |
|
I want to believe that Michigan can be the team I thought they
were heading into this season. They need to stop the
downward spiral that began in Oregon and continued in Iowa or
this season is lost... |
|
Michigan 21 Minnesota 16 |
Go Blue!
