Worst reasonable case for UM - 9-3 with losses to those State U teams.  Best probably 11-1.  Probably best realistic case possible is a loss to PSU and a win over OSU, I realize that looks unlikely.
they HAVE to win this game vs MSU first. Period. A loss to MSU- that's baaaaaaad for the narrative and bad for Harbaugh's job security. 

Penn State game is looking less scary by the minute- that team looks like it's in shambles and Franklin might have one foot out the door. 

Nobody is beating OSU this year in the B1G. That offense is just too damn ridiculous.

Are undefeated seasons now the expectation at "blue blood" schools?

Man, Bo Schembechler would have got run from Michigan much sooner than when he stepped away. Didn't even win a bowl game until season 12.
They should be, yes. 

Tom Brady expects to win the Super Bowl every year. Does he? No, but he comes god damn close because he EXPECTS greatness from himself and his team. 

If you're a program with all the money and resources in the world- and you're not EXPECTING greatness and DEMANDING greatness- then what the hell are you even doing existing? Seriously.

Programs like Michigan and Ohio State have all the money and resources in the world. One of them expects to win and demands to win- and you know what- they freaking win a lot. The other? Ehhhhh. Not so much.

I think it would have been better if they'd made the logo gloss green everywhere within the white outline, on top of the matte green helmet. Would give it just a little more contrast and style.

Otherwise, that's a good looking helmet.


Little industry secret here, the green part is actually transparent so that the helmet color shines through. This makes it a perfect match, whereas had they printed the green it would have been off, even if by just a hair. 

But yes, they did print it on Matte helmet decal material, and could have used the standard gloss in order to create the effect that you are describing.

On this closeup here you can tell that it is clear because you can see the air bubbles where the MSU equipment guy didn't do a very good job laying it on there. Like "that guy" with the shitty tinted window job.

Coaching a soccer game at 11:30, followed by a football practice.  The goal is to go dark, and watch the game around 4 when I get home.  We'll see how this goes

They barely recognize college football in Pittsburgh.  They avoid Sunday activities whenever possible.
