#3? Too high but that's not what is important.
Laugh all you will at in the shadow of Harbaugh but M is clearly in the national CFB discussion and when was the last preseason that was the case?
A long decade of insufferable Football in and around AA should be coming to an end.
HARBAUGH!!!!Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

But the real goal is to still be ranked up there when we go into a matchup with the buckeyes.

Harbaugh's first game at home v. a really talented and well coached osu team was still awful and not a good sign. There was nothing tricky about what urban was doing with the offense and this has been reviewed in detail and explanations given for why M got steamrolled. Won't go there.
But what happened casts some doubt, in my mind, about JH's role in that debacle. We saw this kind of thing with RR. Great offensive mind, got a lot out of middle of the road players supporting a super athlete in Denard, but had no clue about what was going on on the other side of the ball.
I don't think JH is that kind of coach but M had their pants pulled down under his leadership in the 2015 contest. I'll be sorely disappointed if M is not completely prepared for whatever urban and his coaching staff throw out there in c-bus this season.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished.

Originally posted by SeattleLionsFan View PostI'm less concerned about what OSU did and more concerned about what Indiana did to us. They exposed significant weaknesses that need to be addressed.
Two B10 teams with similar offense's demonstrated that what Durkin put in place as M's D didn't handle those offenses well. I think most of that had to do with talent and the limitations that imposed on his D's. Maybe some scheme issues with regard to edge control but by-in-large, it was talent.
There's been some good stuff at mgoblog with regard to Brown's approach to handling the edge and forcing the play to go where the defense is positioned to stop it. Whether Brown does a better Job than Durkin did with masking talent deficiencies, especially at LB, remains to be seen.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished.

M played some really bad offensive teams last year. It's shame, in a way, they ended up playing Florida in their bowl game because Florida was another god-fucking-awful offensive team. They could have drawn LSU, which wasn't a great offensive team but at least decent -- and a team with a scheme that played to M's strength. That would have been an interesting gauge.
As it is, you have a season of these extremes on the defensive side. Weird.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
