The data suggests Michigan is overrated. While the Wolverines' defense is rated sixth overall, their level of competition has been light, facing only East Carolina, UNLV, Bowling Green and Rutgers -- all at home. Now they will face the top-rated Husker rush defense (nationally) on the road. This will force Michigan to pass and Nebraska will have two takeaways in the form of interceptions as the pass rush will cause J.J. McCarthy to force errant throws. The Michigan offense is ranked 60th in the nation. The law firm of Haarberg/Grant will again rush for 300 yards. The game will be tied 28-28 at end of regulation. Tristan Alvano will shock the Big Ten with a walk-off field goal to win the game in overtime.

It just wont be as much fun beating the Huskers without Scott Frost on the sideline.  Forecast high of 93 and wind in Lincoln on Saturday.

Like Iowa I hope the 'Skers defense can score points. And that one good LB they had portaled to booger. Could be over by the half but here's hoping the Bug Eaters upset the apple cart

Lol. What data? 

SP+ has Michigan #1 overall and predicts them to beat Nebraska 34-11. 

Advanced Stats gives Michigan a 97+% win probability and predicts them winning 36-7.

It’s a daunting challenge Saturday as the Huskers host No. 2 Michigan, the highest-ranked team to visit Memorial Stadium in 16 years.

Hold it you stated when I said Booger portaled well on the O-Line you basically said horseshit. So where did he come from?:cheer:

Haarberg vs Harbaugh

This will be the most option second-year Michigan defensive coordinator Jesse Minter has schemed against. The last time the Wolverines saw much option was in 2019, when they beat Army 24-21 in two overtimes.

“Stopping the run and being able to run the ball is a winning formula in football,” Harbaugh said. “We’re just going to have to play good. It will be a game of blocking, tackling, focusing on fundamentals, reads, getting off blocks, defeating blocks, playing assignment, being in the right alignment, being in the right technique, a lot of focus on real football.”


NEBRASKA NICE
Michigan offensive lineman Trevor Keegan still marvels at how nice Nebraska fans were after his team’s visit in 2021.

“We beat them and they’re like, `Hey, congratulations, great game! You played so well!’” Keegan recalled. “I thought, `Are they messing with me?’ But then like 20 more of them did the same thing.”

great prediction.

Michigan made Nebraska look like a high school team. Could've beaten them 70-0 in their own house if Jeem didn't take his foot off the gas pedal in the 3rd QTR and unload the bench.

agreed

Hopefully, Michigan is a top 5 team.

and therefore Nebraska is really bad, but not horribly bad

JJ stat line through week 5

79% completion, 1,071 passing yards, 11 TD's (10 pass, 1 rush) vs 3 INT's (WTF Bowling Green game), 116 rush yards (7.3 YPC), 94.2 QBR, 190.4 QB Rating

Even with that god awful Bowling Green game, JJ is leading the nation in ESPN QBR with 94.2 through 5 weeks
