now let me get this straight, we have an opening line on minny/michgan at a pick -it. The line moves on the road team to -2' or 3.
What i don't understand is as follows:
1.Michigan loses twice to similiar teams like minny(iowa&oregon) on the road.
2.The power rating for michigan is 4 points lower than minny.
3.The game is played at night and on a off day which lloyd carr was not in favor of.
in essence, we have a home dog with points who has the better power ratings and the line is continuing to move against them.

my play is on MINNESOTA

my guess is, that the public is driving the number. they bet michigan because they are the "big blue". they really have no idea about the gophers and how well they are playing. they may not even notice the (13) next to their name. Abdul-Khaliq is for real. i played against these guys with Ohio a few weeks back and got scorched.

i do see a close game tonight though. but i think minny can pull it off in the 4th qtr.

peace out

Every year, all the Minnesota backers have great optimism because the Gophers have a great record after playing a very soft schedule. Tonight, they have to step it up a few notches and I don't think they have enough to beat Michigan. Minnesota wins only if Michigan has a few special teams gaffs like they have been prone to do.

SF beats TCU also, IMHO.

GL to all, may the best teams win...:D
