    Wait wait... You put Cincy and AF as questionable wins? What? Are you following college football at all?

    As of right now Michigan is favored by 85% or more in 8 of their games. The remaining 4 are between 45% and 55% (toss ups).

    Yes I follow college football a lot but at 2:23 am I didn't look up Cincinnati, they are #90 on the FPI preseason rankings go ahead and put that game as a lead pipe cinch W if you want.

    And yes "m" should go to a bowl game. Personally I think they might be better than expected close to but not a top 10 team maybe 2 or 3 losses due to the B10 not being as dominant this year.

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

    Early games can be scary especially on teams with turnover sometimes takes a few games to get the roster set.....but some lose early and go on and win a national championship like THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY BUCKEYES! 🙂

    I see only 7 for sure.....and I am giving you one that you may pull out that you will be underdogs in. So that is the 8.

    Florida, by the way, from what I hear, may be loaded. So if you em does pull that one out, it would be a big bonus.

    ... I already told you we're heavily favorited in 8 games.

    Or is this the Gipper School of Favorites where being Michigan just automatically loses you 14 points a game...?

    This really isn't an opinion to be debated. 8 of the games we're favorites in. You can debate some with the last 4, but not with those 8.

    Hopefully OSU can steal a few games where they're the underdog. I think they might take one from Army. They could get the upset against UNLV too.

    I don't debate facts...when I see facts. You need to prove your facts. What are these 8 games? I see only 7 in which UM would be "heavily favored".

    It certainly does not apply to Florida, Michigan St. Penn St. Wisconsin, or Ohio State. That leaves 7 on your schedule.

    The only thing I can think of is that you have UM "heavily favored" over Michigan St. But I don't see why that would be the case. Slightly favored at best.

    So.....prove it. Show us/give us links to authoritative betting lines that "heavily" favor you in 8 games.

    UM and OSU have about the same 'difficulty" in terms of non-conf. schedule.

    And while I have not seen any lines, is there any game on their schedule that OSU is not favored in?

    I said they're the underdog. Clearly that's all that matters. They might prove Vegas wrong and beat Maryland too. We'll see

    Note: I was checking some odds. At this point you can't find them for every game, just for some of the big games and for the first week or so. Here is what I found:

    OSU 20-21 pt favorite over Indiana

    OSU 8 pt. favorite over Oklahoma

    OSU 8.5 pt. favorite over Penn St.

    OSU 8 pt. favorite over Michigan

    Michigan 3 pt. favorite over Florida

    Michigan 15 pt. favorite over Michigan St. (so there is your 8th "heavily favored"

    Michigan 14 pt. underdog to Penn St.

    Yes, and I have seen Michigan State be the stronger program in that state for practically the last decade. Just now it seems that MSU has fallen off. Perhaps I didn't realize it was that bad. Perhaps I don't believe it is that bad...in fact I don't.

    So...I agree with you.....MSU/UM is a toss up.

    We all shake our heads over your ignorance.....MSU HAS been the better program for a decade. So, yes, 99% of CFB fans agree on that. Last year they were not.

    This year remains to be seen. YOU...and other think MU is so much better than MSU this year as well......but that is yet to be proven....on the field....not in the sports books.

    Coming from the guy that didn't even realize MSU was a bad team and not favored vs Michigan as of a day ago.

    Spend some time, look through MSUs offseason news, and get back to me.

    You don't know that MSU will be a bad team this year. Just because they were last year...or because of some bad news. Hell UM is all about bad news. MU could be just as bad as MSU, given all their losses to graduation and the NFL.

    And I did figure that UM would be favored...even though I didn't look it up until later. I assumed they would be favored by some.....but you said "heavily favored". I didn't think off the top of my head that they would be more than a TD favorite.

    But, yes, they are "heavily favored"...right now. That could certainly change as the season goes along.

    I didn't figure that UM would be a 15 pt. underdog to Penn St. But they are. I would wager you had no clue that that would be the case there.

    Besides...you get a lot of oddities on these early betting lines. OSU is an 8 pt. favorite over both UM and PSU. But PSU is a 15 pt. favorite over um. If PSU is a 15 pt. favorite over um, and OSU is an 8 pt. favorite over PSU...then why is OSU not a 23 pt. favorite over um. Maybe they should be?

    - We're not UM or MU

    - Yes, I knew we were a heavy underdog against PSU (depending on where you look). The PSU hype is real.

    - Home vs Away is much of the difference there.
