Michigan State (2-3, 4-4) at Michigan (3-2, 5-3) Post Game
« on: October 21, 2024, 09:49:10 AM »
This game can be found on BTN at 7:30 PM Saturday.  Michigan is favored by 5.5 pts early on.  Why?  Michigan's defense is OK until they tire from being on the field all day because Michigan's offense is turnover prone and can't pass protect and pass the ball worth a shit.  Sparty has a QB unlike Michigan and can put 11 men in the box which will be more than enough to stop Michigan's one dimensional rushing offense.

Sparty    42
Michigan 10

I'll believe Michigan State's OL is this vastly improved when they do it more than once.  And as bad as Michigan's offense seems, they've looked ok at home against comparable teams to MSU (USC and Minnesota).  They are averaging more ppg in Big Ten play than MSU

Sparty. I just don't see how Michigan scores points on offense- the QB play is THAT bad and Wink Martindale is a MASSIVE downgrade at DC from wunderkid Jesse Minter.

I'd guess Michigan's QB play and offense is similar to Iowa's

I love this game - even the SEC schools  look on in admiration for true hatred like this - which can be a good thing

Think I’ll record this game on the DVR and watch it in the morning over coffee when I can skip through the commercials and whatnot to minimize the trauma.

I usually make a short trip to the fridge for another beer to skip the commercials

if it's a long break like the end of the quarter, I also hit the pisser

A beer at every commercial break in this day and age would be a hell of a drinking game.

We had a drinking game in college during basketball games, where you'd each have a team, and you'd swig some beer for a 2 and do a shot for a 3.  That game would be impossible now.
