Michigan-Purdue

Spot on. I could not agree more. 

It seems that the pick 6s have flooded your mind and rightfully so. It also seems as if Purdue beating an overrated qb has as well.  Michigan hasn't done anything good this year? How many points have they given up on average per game? How is their second half defense looking? Have they even attempted to stay with the run? Their defense and their special teams looks great but again, like so many on here, you want to focus on the interceptions. Any praise for halftime adjustments? You best who theynoutnin front of you yet you want harbaugh to blow teams out. He doesn't do that often but he knows his spots. You act as is Air Force was a bad team. You act as if Florida was bad? How many consecutive home openers had Florida won before losing to Michigan? Sure, Air Force was one dimensional but they had won 7 straight games. They are well coached too. After one play early in the second half, what did Air Force do the rest of the way? Nothing. Harbaugh plays the "game within the game" and has laid over many times already as a coach. Look at the Ohio state game last year and then look at the bowl game. You pay the piper buddy but in return you get to put the pedal to medal too. The first two games they did just enough to not cover and are now 0-2 ATS. Ask yourself this buddy: 10 points, at home, off an impressive beatdown of in your eyes, supposedly the greatest qb that's ever lived....where you putting your money? Go ahead and feel comfortable with those 10 tomorrow....You focus too much on what's on the surface. Harbaugh will be ready as will his team to put the hurt on Purdue. 

This is typical ovearreaction of what people just saw. Purdue looked great against an overhyped team while Michigan struggled to beat an option team by 16 points. When teams are not used to play against an option team they struggle, those are always bad spots, it's a fact, it usually happens.

Purdue is on the right track with Jeff Brohm but they are obviously not there yet, it takes time. I don't see how they can put 20+ points on michigan's D.

I have this and Cal as bubble burst games of teams that have looked good but the rebuilding takes time and they are not ready to hang with the big boys out of nowhere in one year.

Totally agree here. The idea that Michigan can dominate both teams yet have no consistent offense can be looked at one of two ways. 1. Their defense will break down. 2. The offense starts clicking. Now in this game tomorrow, I do not see the defense taking a step back. If anything, I see the defense being up for the challenge for a full 60 minutes on the road. And as for the offense, this Michigan team has all the tools to be an above average offense. The two best teams in the country have ok offenses yet nobody talks about them. Why? 

I like speight and I like the two headed monster at running back along with their good offensive line. Do not be surprised if Michigan lines up tomorrow and slings it all across the field and then late puts Purdue to bed with the ground and pound game. Nobody would expect that would they?! If Michigan weren't 0-2 ATS, I wouldn't feel as good about them stomping a mud hole in purdues a$$es and I love the fact that people keep talking up Purdue and thinking Michigan is overrated. Love that. 

This is the common perception it seems on the Michigan team.  First week everyone talking about how Florida is going to destroy them.  Once they dominate that game everyone jumps on the bandwagon and has them winning the Big Ten and then after AF and Cincy everyone is back to saying how terrible they are.  The red zone is definitely a concern but realistic people knew it was going to take a few games to get this offense going with the young receivers.  Speight knows he needs to come out and perform well this game and now that conference play is here the playbook is going to open up a little more.  I just laugh at how everyone goes from one end of the spectrum to the other with this team each week.
