31-9 Michigan

Workmanlike, unspectacular.

IU gets most or all of its points after our 2-deep sits, game isn't nearly as close as score suggests.

Weather not conducive to blowout on scoreboard.

52-7. Indiana probably scores a garbage time TD and a shutout still eludes this defense, but it’s an otherwise dominant effort against a hapless Indiana offense. 

I could see Indiana generating some stops early in the game, as their defense does have a few decent to good players, but as Brian or Seth said on the MGoBlog Roundtable yesterday, the whole is less than the sum of its parts. There’s just no way the IU defense can carry this day with the state that their offensive counterpart is in. Barring a lot of mistakes from Michigan’s end, this one is probably over quickly. 

Enjoy the snoozer tomorrow, folks. After this week, Michigan fans are going into ass-clenching territory in just about every game the rest of the way.

A lower score due to the inclement weather which will be wet at times, windy and very cool.

31-0 Michigan. The rushing attack will be the main thing. That doesn't rule out 100 yds of passing and 250 yds rushing. Donovan has a breakout day.

The weather is going to be horrible.   I don’t see either team moving the hall a ton.   
 

UM 29. Indiana 10

indiana gets their lone TD on a broken play or during garbage time.

so the most likely scenario resulting in the apocalypse is IU not converting a two-point conversion, then actually converting 2 FGs, followed by IU missing an extra point.  3 safeties by Michigan is also a possibility.  Glad this game is being played tomorrow.   

Based on the tagline I presume it will be program win # 996 unless IU somehow pulls out the upset. 

I had never researched the doomsday clock online until today. 

Pretty wild given the political unrest that is happening heading into the weekend.  Thoughts and prayers for peace are not a bad idea no matter who you be.

56-0. Football version of perfection. TD on every possession (minus the end of half and game) and they don’t cross midfield in the first half. 
I understand these games are boring to some, but I love and appreciate blowouts.
