    I still fail to see how 20,000 people in a 65K stadium constitutes some sort of serious home field advantage.

    Why would anyone bet on that school up north?

    they haven’t won a title in decades. And their coach has never won a title

    Great expectations. 

    After years of "m" getting pummeled by The OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY it looked like the Wolverines program was turning the corner and improving they did have a great defense recently -but- apparently can't recruit to the Urban Meyer level yet. 

    Who knows how much better they might have been with a star quarterback last year? They just don't have the depth that the BUCKEYES have. I would like to see them more competitive, good for the B1G too.

    Sad to hear the Buckeyes QB Joe Burrow announced his departure today.

    He’s going to be a hot commodity for some D1 team with a need for a starting QB.

    I hear Florida, Nebraska, Oklahoma State are already putting their feelers out for his services.

    I certainly don’t want him in the Big 10.

    Does he have to sit out a year?

    No, he graduated last week which makes him a graduate transfer.

    He was a redshirt freshman, so he has 2 years eligibility left.

    Burrow was a 5 star recruit, and Ohio Mr Football winner in 2014 if I remember correctly.

    I don't want him in Cincy with Fickell.

    I think LSU would be a better fit.

    Well....there are two factors that do make your schedule more "brutal" than say OSUs:    A. You DO have to play Wisconsin, and OSU does not. OSU has to play Minnesota instead.  B. You DO have to play Ohio State....and OSU does not have to play itself....it just has to play Michigan instead.

    On the other hand,  OSU does play 2 P5 non conference games. (Ore St. and TCU)    Mich only has to play one...P5 equivalent Notre Dame.

    Has to be one of the toughest in the USA, preseason #4, 6, 9, 10, 16 oh yeah.

    IF THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY BUCKEYES get by TCU in Texas and PSU in Happy Valley they have a real shot until Michigan at home.

    GO BUCKEYES!

    What are you talking about?   I agreed with you.   Wisconsin is a tougher opponent than Minnesota likely will be.  FMU DOES have to play Ohio State.  

    At least ratings wise at this point, Notre Dame seems to be a potentially more difficult opponent than TCU.  Of course that remains to be seen as the season goes on.

    But, of course, I realize that actual facts are not your strong point.   Or it depends on if you think that the non P5 SMU is on a level as the P5 Oregon State. That also remains to be seen. They are likely close enough that the fact that one is P5 and the other not may not be that big a difference.  Its not like OSU is taking on the cream of the Pac 12....USC, Washington UCLA or the like.

    Nevertheless....I understand your natural and rightful propensity to feel inferior.

    Hahahahahaha. The guy least interested in facts is telling me I don't listen to facts. Hahahaha

    You aren't bright man

    Fact of the matter is, like I said, you have to try and undermine anything about Michigan. 

    Not to mention you're not even hitting on Home vs Away, which is a huge contributor here.
