Meeeechigan Predictions

Post by VDub26Falcon »

I dreamt the game last night and you're not going to believe what happened!!

BG came out and marched down the field for a score. After the kickoff, which Michigan muffed, BG forced a Safety, 9-0.

After a field goal put the Falcons up 12-0, Michigan kicked one of their own. 12-3.

BG and Michigan traded punts and then BG drove and scored a Touchdown, 19-3....Michigan couldn't do anything after the kickoff...Halftime.

Michigan's offense dinked and dunked its way down the field but BG's Defense came up huge and only gave up a field goal. 19-6.

After some traded punts, BG took the ball down the field to start the 4th quarter, scored but couldn't convert the extra point. 26-6.

Defense played the rest of the game for both teams and the clock hit 00:00 with the final, BG 26, UofM 6.

Needless to say, I woke up with a HUGE smile on my face this morning!

Early point spread is BG +25. I could see us keeping it close and losing by 7 or squeaking out an amazing win, and I could see us getting housed if things go wrong.

I'll say the spread is about right, but we cover - 35-14 UM.

Michigan survives a tough first quarter and a half and pulls away after halftime. Michigan 48, BG-13

UM - 46
BGSU - 38

First time in forever that I've picked us to lose. I hope I'm wrong and we actually win.

UM - 38
BGSU - 31

I like most people hope the score is flipped, but the fact that UMass gave them a game does not bode well for the Falcons. If they would have thumped UMass they may have taken it easy this week, and we could have surprised them. That's not the case, and now they won't be looking past us. GO BG!!!!

Hard telling. Either Michigan was caught in letdown mode, or defenses are starting to figure out Denard Robinson. No matter how talented somebody is, a player eventually becomes predictable.

I have never picked against BG. I never will. My contacts have orange in them I think. BG wins a high scoring game, largely by virtue of Michigan's defensive youth, and BG's pass defense comes up with big plays at big times. Willie Geter is player of the game. BG wins 38 - 31.

Michigan 45
BG 21

Sorry guys, this one won't start or end well. Lets just hope no one gets hurt and Robinson doesn't make the D look too foolish.

Even is Schilz doesn't play, I've seen enough of UM this year to know they are very beatable. IF our D can come up with stops, we'll have a good chance to pull the upset. Obviously turnovers can play a BiG part as well as penalties. Don't beat ourselves...UM is no powerhouse, a good team but nothing spectacular.

Mark, I never pick against BG either...even when they don't have much of a chance. In this game, they have a real chance to win.

BG 27, UM 24. BG blocks UM's last second FG attempt to tie. :D

I wonder if anyone has seen this team play this year? Michigan is certainly beatable.
If we force Robinson to throw then we have a legit chance. There DB and LB are not very good or fast. This more than likely would be a shoot out. I understand having realistic expectations and not wanting to be a "homer" but this is a team that we could compete with if we bring our best game.
