    If Maryland can ring up 400 yards I'm hoping for at least 300. I can see some of our speedy guys can get some edge plays.

      Just so you can be a little uneasy, or maybe a littel bit more aware, about this game, Brian just did an Illinois Preview that reiterates pretty much what I said based on Ace's take on the game.

      Illinois has some dudes on D and those guys are up front where M has some weaknesses like JBB at LT. So, they're going to make some plays and fans will be uneasy. In order to make-up for overall not good on the back end, they'll bring all sorts of pressure - stunts, blitzes, what have you.

      Illinois will also give up some big chunk plays to M. As Brian said, they'll have some TFLs but also some big run, big pass, big TD 3 play scoring series for M doing that. As long as M has more of those than Illinois has TFLs, M is going to roll. I think they will but its not going to happen right off the bat like the uninformed expect it will.

      Think about the Colorado game in the early going. It won't look at all like that but it might have some of the same feel trying to get score separation.
      There is such a thing as redemption. Jim Harbaugh is redeemed at the expense of a fading Ryan Day and OSU. M wins back to back games v. OSU first time since 1999-2000​ - John Cooper was fired in 2000!!!

        IIRC, Michigan kind of had their way with Ole Jeffy when they played against him.

          Since they had two weeks to prepare for the Illini's D' I expect a few wrinkles and Jimmy will work on The passing game in general. I think a balance of 250 running and passing will satisfy Harbaugh.

          Its a great feeling knowing the other teams offense will be stymied and your team can do what you want on offense and still win comfortably.

            You're not only an amazingly beautiful man, but you're the greatest football mind to ever exist. <-- Jeffy Shittypants actually posted this. I knew he was in love with me.

              Carroll Phillips is another Illinois front 7 player that is decent. He plays the LEO position and has been disruptive in the Illinois games I've seen.
              Perhaps that is due to Smoot getting all the attention. Yea I'm interested to see if we get Dewuane Smoot vs JBB... though it's not going to matter after a while when Michigan is up 5 scores.

                Don't care about the score. Hope for no injuries, then focus on payback next week.

                  45-10. Illini has some talent on defense that could slow us down but their offense won't do much of anything.

                    If M doesn't win by 50 I'll be disappointed.

                        Kareem Walker is.

                        Braden at LT, Bredeson at LG in warmups.

                          That opening drive was as blatantly disrespectful as I've ever seen. I'm half surprised we didn't see a fumblerooski.

                              Nice to see the offense starting fast for a change. That would be a nice habit for them to develop from now on.

                              7-0, good guys.

                                I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it on
