Michigan 24, Michigan State 17
Michigan consensus open stands at -7.5. It had been as high as -24.5 much earlier and before the books figured out Michigan is a very bad football team. I'll be on a cruise enjoying myself instead of watching another disappointing shit show delivered by a team that has tanked with Moore unable to rally it.
I have not seen Sparty play this season. I'll take Froot's post in the M/Illinois game thread at his word that MSU is bad. I took some time reading Illinois pre-game analysis because it was favorable to M and I figured this would be a chance for M to get back on track. NOT. Worse than expected. Won't be doing that this week trying not to focus on the embarrassing downfall of what was a very good program. Even before the season and definately after losses to Texas and Washington, I was leaning to not attending any of Michigan's 2025 home games - something I've been looking forward to and doing for 50+ years. First, the home schedule is light at 6 games. The first two home games, interrupted by a trip to Norman, are v. New Mexico Lobos and CMU. Not big draws for me. Come mid October it's just too cold in Ann Arbor. Below 70 with wind, rain or snow in the forecast and definately below 60, I hate being in the stands to suffer.
I'm hearing I'm not alone among season ticket holders that may not show for 2025 home games, trying to sell their tickets, with the likelihood that team 145 will be a predictable dumpster fire and hard to justify spending the usual lots of money to attend. Without any analysis, just a gut feeling, I think M suffers emotional hang-over from the Illinois loss. They will continue to try to cope with bad OL and QB play while suffering chaotic and disorganized play calling. MSU is going to be pumped up having just beat Iowa and M will lose another game to instate rival at home to MSU. Something like ........
17-9. You boys who predicted an M win v. Illinois better start listening to me. M's football team is bad, very bad.
