Will Michigan be in a Bowl Game?

Postby Eric » Sat Oct 16, 2010 11:03 pm

Yes or no?

I'm getting a little scared here. This is the rest of their slate:

10-30-10 at Penn State
11-6-10 ILLINOIS
11-13-10 at Purdue
11-20-10 WISCONSIN
11-27-10 at Ohio State

Penn State is a loss on the road. Only winnable games left in my opinion are against Illinois at home and Purdue on the road. I think the odds are in their favor of finishing at 6-6, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they lose the last 7 games.

MIchigan looked better on D today. RR needs to spend more time with them I guess...but did it hurt the O? Can his COordinators not motivate properly...well, I guess the HC being around (out of character) would push guys to give more effort.

I like both QBs...and Rich should let TF take 3 series a game and maybe mix the 2 in spots. This will help in keeping lil' Pat from getting hurt. (He didn't ride Pat quite as hard, as he had a Big Moose and a really good RB.)

They should beat Penn St., I think Illinois is tougher. But I think they get 3 more wins.

And, don't forget, there are like 337 bowls now! :D

Illinois and Purdue are almost locks to beat. PSU a toss up. I have called Detroit and suggested everyone' favorite bowl: The MOTOR City Bowl!

I don't see Illinois as a lock. Purdue would seem to be their easiest win remaining, then maybe Illinois or Penn St.

Purdue is so beat up with injuries I am just hoping we can finuish 7-5. THAT would be a major coup. We will surprise someone (not OSU) but someone like MSU or Michigan!

Purdue is going to have lots of problems because of the injuries. Seems like the same is happening to them with basketball. I think it is a wait til next year season for Purdue.

They are going to have to fight for it every single game if they want to be bowl eligible. I don't think Rodriguez has the ability to keep them up when they lose and that's a big flaw in my opinion. I know cause my team lost to James Madison, probably the worst loss in twenty years, and the coaching staff has turned the team around.
