For some reason I couldn't embed the tweet but basically:
OSU (39%) at Michigan (61%)
PSU (35%) at MSU (65%)
U-M's Odds to Win the East: 21.4%

Seems about right given all the crap that has gone on this year. And that is about an order of magnitude better than anyone would have rationally predicted at the beginning of this year. PSU's matchups are not terrible with Sparty which has had its share of BS good fortune. It would not be the biggest story of the year for those dicks to blow this.
Beating OSU is and always will be the most important thing in this universe, it still is. If the refs can just be fucking benign for one day, I like our chances.

with the potential for 10 in the regular season and 11 after the bowl game in year 1 for Harbaugh when this staff has already shown their ability to develop players on both sides of the ball. I can't wait to see what the future holds for Michigan Football. It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!

Fast Fwd to 2015. During the spring and summer some of us drew parallels to 1969. Wouldn't that be a great upset?
Doesn't feel like such an upset anymore. And that's good.
Beat Ohio State. Go Blue.

They may not be #1, but they did win the first CFP championship last year. Looking at where our team was last year compared to where their team was last year, a win on Saturday would be a big upset in my book.

winning every game by at least 27 points.

Most other ratings have Michigan's odds to win the East around 5-10%.
Massey: Michigan 42% and PSU 16% to win -> 6.7% odds to win East
ESPN FPI: Michigan 42.3% and PSU 20.4% to win -> 8.6% odds to win East
FEI will have their data out tomorrow, but it looks like it will probably have even worse odds than these 3 models.
