My Thoughts on the Michigan-Penn State game this weekend

I'll be in Ann Arbor this weekend for the Michigan-Penn State game (among other things).  And I think Michigan is gonna win.

With Michigan ranking 7th in total offense (averaging 37.3 a game), and Penn State being #1 in total defense, it should be very interesting.  Of course if you exclude Michigan's win over Delaware State, their scoring average drops to about 33 points a game, still good for around 18th.  Penn State's offense is much less impressive if you take Eastern Illinois out of the mix too (they won 52-3)

While Penn State has only given up 8.7 points a game, I think it's a LARGE factor of their schedule so far.

  • Akron (31-7)
  • Syracuse (28-7)
  • Temple (31-6)
  • Iowa (10-21)
  • Illinois (35-17)
  • Eastern Illinois (52-3)
  • Minnesota (20-0)

They've had a REALLY REALLY weak schedule.  Michigan is better than all of those teams except Iowa.  And as bad as Michigan's defense seems sometimes, at 46th, they're not *THAT* bad.

My point being, I think we're in for an exciting game on Saturday!
