Indiana is still garbage. Their OL is a sieve. I like their QB he has no supporting cast. On defense, they aren’t good against either the run or pass. The line is now 22.5. I would lean towards us covering.

This is an easy cover. Like I said, I think the line should be 28' -- Indiana is a terrbile team. I mean, TERRIBLE. Well, wait...they're way better than some teams M has played...but, they are still terrible.

Indiana will burn us running up tempo at least a few times. One of our school traditions is that we suck defending tempo. I'd put the floor for Indiana's score at 17. But we should probably end up in the 40s or thereabouts.

I dunno, Hanni. After TUCK!!!!! schooled MacDonald a few times in last year's game, they seemed to catch on about being ready for the quick snap. I don't think anyone has caught them napping this year.

I DO expect Indiana to throw a lot of trick plays at Michigan. They have nothing to lose. That would be right up Allen's alley

I'll second that- based on Bloomington not being as intimidating as Kinnick.

[lineygoblue]

Tom Allen had something going in Bloomington until Pennix transferred.

The DB/LB's were out a position - confused where to be a few time vs Maryland (one play resulted in a TD) , but much better vs Iowa. I must say that was one (if not the best) road discipline opening B10 game under Harbaugh. That first drive was perfect, how many times did we used to see false starts, offside ect... on the first series.

We got burned at least a couple of times against Maryland.

Mullings was looking around for someone to tell him where to be when Maryland snapped the ball, his man the TE caught the TD as he ran passed him.

Jesse Minter's defenses, along with Don Brown and Mike Macdonald before him, disguise who's coming and the players have to get the play call and know who's doing what. M has a rep for having complex defenses that good OC's can take advantage of with tempo. This isn't something knew. Over the last several years, it appears to me that the coaches have done an increasingly better job of teaching the players what is expected of them whne substitutions occure and they frequently do. Tempo has become incrementally less of a problem. Still, you'll get the occasional WTF and you can see it coming but it is, IMO, not anywhere near as bad as it was when these complex styles of defense first emerged at M and throughout CFB.
