I dont think Michigan stands a chance. This could be much like the game State played against Bama in the outback 2 years ago and get ugly quickly. The diffrence here will be that Saban is not going to shut off the faucet once up big. Michigan is outmatched in every facet of this game. Hoke still has not made a decision on weather or not TousSAINT will play and i think thats a dsitraction. Michigan is in BIG rouble. Id lay 17 points on Bama. 49-17
Saying Bame would blow Michigan out like they would do to Oregon is not showing Michigan justice. Maybe it would if this was Rich Rodriguez's Michigan...but it isn't...it's Brady Hoak's Michigan, and 'This is Michigan'...they are nothing like Oregon...they run a pro style offense, and a pro style defense...hell they have a former pro coach as their defensive coordinator.
In my opinion, they have improved over last season more than Bama...enough to win the game...maybe, but taking the points here i sthe smart side and don't be surprised to see a maize in blue victory...I'll say it again...finally 'This IS Michigan Football'...

Missing my point exactly...yes Oregon was better than the Rich Rodriguez's form of offense for Michigan...but Oregon is not better than Hoke's version of Michigan Offense...Simply stating that you were saying Bama would blowout Michigan because their offense is similar to Oregon's which under Hoke couldn't be farther from the truth...
I agree with you that if Bama can neutralize Robinson things could get ugly...but they won't because it won't happen...Bama way different and younger on defense this year...
The real comparison that should be made in this game is which offense is going to have more success against which defense...and people are acting like the defences are the same as last year which is not true...I like the way Michigan's offense matches up with Bama better than Bama's offense matches up with Michigan...I might be in the minority here but I see Michigan's defense better overall than last year and Bama's defense worse than last year...
Good game and Bama looks to win, but not in a bloodbath...

Enough with saying I am comparing Michigan's offense to Oregon's. I am comparing their QBs. Speedy QBs who rely on running just as much as passing.
You insist that they keep this game close because of Hoke. I could argue that Michigan's turnaround could have been affected more by their schedule rather than by their new coach.
Michigan played a soft schedule - (only 2 ranked teams and they lost 1 of them.) They avoided Wisky and only played 4 road games. Michigan has only seen 2 SEC defenses in the last 5 years, both in bowl games.
The more I keep pondering this, the more I believe that Bama is going to neutralize Robinson. In fact, I think the whole Michigan team could be fools gold this season.
Where did I say the game would be close because of Hoke...you know how to read just not comprehend...
I said the game would be close because the teams are more equal than last year...Bama not quite as good and Michigan just as good or better...
Also I said the game would be close because I like the way Michigan's offense stacks up against Bama's defense better than Bama's offense against Michigan's...
The only thing I said about Hoke is that he is old school and has brought back Real Michigan Football again...
Reading is not enough...comprehension is everything...
t's Brady Hoak's Michigan, and 'This is Michigan'...they are nothing like Oregon...they run a pro style offense, and a pro style defense...hell they have a former pro coach as their defensive coordinator.

Explain this quote then. It sounds like you are saying Bama won't blow out Michigan because of Hoke...and the offense that Hoke has installed.
