Jeff Van Bergen? and Defensive predictions?
America's fav. commentator Kirk herbstreit jus said on CFL "Mike Martin and Jeff Van Bergen really need to step up on the DL this week". Just thought that was funny, but on to business. After NU, our defense is still only giving up 12.5 points and we already have forced 17 TO (19 all last year), but I know that we haven't faced MSU yet. I think Mattison is going to hit Cousins early and it will affect him the rest of the game (a couple TOs). I say 20 pts How many do you think we give up to Lil Bro?
Also, who do you think steps up this week?? I think Mark Martin gets to Cousins and Countless steps up again....oops!

Jake will get an INT & Greg Roh will have 1.5 sacks
Craig Mattison and his D will allow 17 pts
October 14th, 2011 at 3:51 PM ^
I always thought it was Martin Van Bergen...
October 14th, 2011 at 4:06 PM ^
I think it's Martin Van Ryan. But that's just what I remember.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:11 PM ^
Sounds like a Dutch soccer player.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:25 PM ^
Of the Newport Van Ryans, right?
October 14th, 2011 at 4:16 PM ^
I think that was an 1800s president.
*ducks tomatoes thrown in his general direction*

I'm wondering if Denard Dennard is going to play.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:01 PM ^
Does anyone else find it funny that Denard had such a huge year last year and now every team it seems has a Denard or Dennard on it? Greatest form of flattery, I suppose.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:01 PM ^
First drive, Denard Robertson is going to toss a perfect TD pass to Kevin Kroger
October 14th, 2011 at 4:01 PM ^
All great players that you all have mentioned, but I think Gravy Hulk will coach a great game and be the difference for us tomorrow.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:05 PM ^
I think Freshman Hemmingway is gonna have a huge game. He's really stepped it up this year with Bartholomew Roundtree not contributing as much as everyone had hoped.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:09 PM ^
i don't know about you guys, but i'm expecting a huge game out of troy woolfork.
October 14th, 2011 at 7:47 PM ^
Tloy Woorfork
October 14th, 2011 at 4:09 PM ^
Kenny Dewens is going to have his best game of the year.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:17 PM ^
Our receiver Richard Roundtree is really going to give the opponent the shaft.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:20 PM ^
Hal Oranges can confuse their D.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:25 PM ^
In one of the more ironic defensive performances in recent memory, Courtney Slavery is going to own Cousins in the passing game.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:26 PM ^
come off the bench.......that would be exciting..."Jeff VB"......funny......
October 14th, 2011 at 4:35 PM ^
Jeremy Galloway might be a factor in the punt return this week.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:37 PM ^
This thread is pure gold. Some of the funniest posts I've seen in a while.
Kenny Demons will give the spartans hell.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:41 PM ^
On SportsCenter this morning they were touting Robert Smith predicting a CFB upset over the weekend.
Can anyone guess who the to-be-upset team was???
This just in...... water is wet.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:41 PM ^
Jerk Herbstreit is a dick!!
October 14th, 2011 at 4:55 PM ^
"You live on Herb Street? You must be confused."
October 14th, 2011 at 4:44 PM ^
Gordon Kovacs is going to be huge.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:55 PM ^
Didn't he sing "Wreck Of The Edward Fitzgerald"?
October 14th, 2011 at 5:49 PM ^
Yes, Gordan used to be very light on his feet.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:46 PM ^
Want to see Jibreel White have a huge game.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:47 PM ^
...he avoids throwing it to Pacotants.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:49 PM ^
Craig Mattison said that Greg Roh had a great week of practice! Also need Fitzgerald Croissant and Vincent Michael Smith to step up BIG time!
October 14th, 2011 at 5:05 PM ^
There are a number of good ones here but I think you just won with Fitzgerald Croissant!
October 14th, 2011 at 5:52 PM ^
Agreed. Winner of the thread.
October 14th, 2011 at 4:51 PM ^
Kenny Dewars is going to bottle them up!
October 14th, 2011 at 4:57 PM ^
GERG Rodriguez isn't deploying our defense in a 4-5-2 set.
October 14th, 2011 at 5:05 PM ^
I heard Brew Bileo is prepped for a breakout performance.
October 14th, 2011 at 5:10 PM ^
It'll be tough facing such an illustrious offense featuring Kurt Nephews, Edward Butcher-Candlestickmaker and Levitra Bell, not to mention [censored] Cunningham.
October 14th, 2011 at 5:23 PM ^
I was in tears after reading this one. Awesome. Mike Dantonio and Mark D'Antoni approve of this message.
October 14th, 2011 at 5:27 PM ^
Patrick Edamame has been very salty as of late. Worried about him.
October 14th, 2011 at 6:25 PM ^
David Mook can figure it out this week.
October 14th, 2011 at 6:38 PM ^
October 14th, 2011 at 6:58 PM ^
That brings up memories of Brent Musberger saying Anthony Avant in the 03 Notre Dame and 05 MSU games. Good times.
October 15th, 2011 at 7:27 AM ^
I'm partial to a few of the name blunders Terry Bowden made alongside Keith Jackson at the '03 Ohio game. A certain backup quarterback and current MLB pitcher was called "Richard Clayton," and "Richard Clayton" was playing catch that day with one "Braylon Jackson."
No wonder ESPN canned Bowden when they took over ABC Sports in 2006. Bowden went to Yahoo! to write a column for a while, and has since put on 100+ pounds and returned to coaching at Division II North Alabama.
October 14th, 2011 at 8:04 PM ^
So you think Coach Mattison is going to come off the sideline and hit Kirk Cousins? While the scenario is certainly plausible, I think only Woody would attempt such a thing.
October 14th, 2011 at 8:39 PM ^
I can't wait to see Jake Lewong and Patrick Ohmommy cooking up some pancakes!
October 14th, 2011 at 10:32 PM ^
we don't see too much of Zoltan Hagerup, not that I don't like the guy, of course.
October 14th, 2011 at 10:45 PM ^
As much as people like Herbstreit and that D-bag Robert Smith annoy me, they get a pass because they went to one of the worst educational institutions in the country. Our own stadium PA announcer, however, gets no slack from me. Carl GrapeJuiceTeen makes no less than 30 name errors per game. Hell, last year, he called Denard... get ready for it... John Navarre. Are you effing me in the a$& with a stick? HE is the last piece of the stadium renovation that we need to complete. Total and utter FAILure on every level. AT UTL he really screwed the pooch a couple of times, including leaving his mic open while he asked who played on Michigan's defense. FACEPALM!
October 14th, 2011 at 10:46 PM ^
I read somewhere that Huyge Cox is starting and that Big Quinton Campbell and Martin Van Black are expected to break out
October 14th, 2011 at 10:56 PM ^
I hope that Washington Irving comes back from injury and Irving Washington keeps up the fine work at DT.
October 14th, 2011 at 11:41 PM ^
This is where on Monty Python the guy comes in and smacks someone with a rubber chicken and says , "Right, right. This is getting silly."
