I see that Hell's Solicitor has solicited my opinion. My first impulse is to rush down the street to the nearest church and douse myself in holy water, but out of kindness to the local parishioners, I will resist that impulse.
I don't think Michigan beats Ohio State until Michigan's linebacker play improves mightily, and it's tough seeing that kind of improvement from this group in the first year under a new DC. We also don't know what Michigan has at QB, while we know exactly what Ohio State has. So, while I loathe saying it, I tend to think that game is going to go pretty much the way it's been going, at least for one more year. I'll be very disappointed if Michigan was as uncompetitive as they were last year-- I don't think that will happen again-- but I don't see Michigan winning in Columbus this season.
