Boy am I hoping to learn later this season that last week was spent focusing on OSU instead of Rutgers.

Kick is at 4, so should be mostly in the dark.  Wonder if they get that cool snow globe they did two years ago.

I'll be at this one too and am hoping so much that we do.

expect ultra-conservative game plan and a really tight game. Michigan is favored by 27.5 points but they aren't going to win by that many. Game will be way closer than it should be. I don't think they'll lose to Indiana but I could see them only winning by a score.

24-17 or something like that.

not sure it's the ultimate trap game, seeing as the game is at home and it's home-coming and the last game at home all the seniors on that team will play. I'm sure Chase will have those guys ready to go.
I think Ohio State on the road at Maryland is more of the ultimate trap game. Maryland's offense can generate big plays when it's clicking. And Ohio State's defense loves to give up the big play.

OSU @ Maryland is "more" of a trap game, no doubt about that, but this is the Michigan-Indiana thread. 

And Indiana won't have to deal with the distractions associated with homecoming, as well as the senior day festivities.

Harbaugh says starting CB LaVert Hill is in concussion protocol. Might miss the Indiana game.

He also said Kwity Paye is A OK. Just landed on his funny bone wrong and was held out as precaution. Translation: we don't need him to kick Rutgers' ass but we're gonna need him for Ohio State.

IU has played Michigan tough lately, no matter where the game is.

I just want IU to be healthy going into the Bucket Game.

this is true. Indiana has played M tough of late. Which is why I think it’ll be a lot closer than the experts and Vegas think.
Just talking out loud- know it doesn’t have anything to do with this game in particular- but if Michigan had just kept Arkansas on the schedule instead of bought the game out and schedule ND they’d be 10-0 right now probably ranked #3 heading into Indiana. 
This playoff committee is FOS. Makes zero sense to schedule tough early season openers vs legit P5 competition. You’re better off scheduling middling programs from P5 like Oregon St or Arkansas.
Whoever signed off on buying out Arkansas and scheduling ND should be slapped right now.

ND game not hurting UM at all, win out and they are in. If UM was 10-0 right now and lost to OSU or in Indy they’d be out anyways, so 9-1 or 10-0 is irrelevant. 

I can see IU putting up a fight for a half, but UM will win 34-14 ish.

Agree.  Those games are high risk/high reward.  Without the early season win over Oklahoma in 2016 Ohio St may not have gotten in the playoff that year.  Same deal with Oklahoma last year.

I think those games are all risk, very little reward.

I disagree.  I would argue one of the main reasons Michigan is the highest ranked one loss team  is that they are considered to have the most forgivable loss on the board.
