ND predictions

Subject: ND predictions Wed Sep 04, 2013 12:57 am

- Tommy Rees will not complete a pass longer than 30 yards. Maybe there will be one longer than 30 if you take into consideration the yards after catch but UM won't give up a long ball catch.

- UM will run for 100 in the first half. I know Drake is out, and he was going to be my guy, but if Temple can run for 4.3 yds per carry then UM is going to easily put up 100 in the first half.

- Time of Possession ends up somewhere around UM 35 ND 25.

- UM has three rushing TDs, one by DG and two by the stable of backs.

- Gallon has at least 75 receiving yards. In fact I wouldn't be surprised to see DG throw for 300. NDs secondary looked terrible in the first game.

- The UM D gets at least two sacks and five knockdowns.

- UM easily covers the spread and wins 38 - 21.

I don't see it as a large margin of victory. It rarely is in this game. I'm going with UM 27 ND 21. Gibbons two FGs are the difference.

Go Blue!!

I'm going (most closely) with yours, '66. I simply don't see either team scoring 27, 30, 38 points. I look for defenses to
play a bigger role...our last three wins over ND notwithstanding.

But I'll tack on another Gibbons FG and go with 20-13.

22-16 Michigan

Lot of money being put on Michigan.

I'll take 'em, 31-29.

So you predict a total of EIGHT field goals, Joe? Five by us, giving Gibbons' accuracy from 40 yards in, and Wile's strength, is not out of
the question...but three by ND would move me to believe they'll all be very short...given that ND's special teams are anything but...and that
fact in itself could prove a vital factor in our favor.

Exactly mike.

I think it's gonna be a field goal fest.

I don't think it's smart to predict a lot of girl goals for Michigan. With Gardner a QB, Michigan is one of the best red zone teams in the nation

I had a lot of girl goals but got married young so that didn't work out. But the marriage did. LOL

That or maybe joe is predicting a missed extra point....

read something on ESPN today that said that in the last six games gardner has gotten UM into the red zone 22 times. UM has scored a TD on 19 of those possessions.

Hail is exactly right, I think we score a lot of TDs in this game. That's why I give the high score. Plus I want to add that I think this is the year that the balance is clearly on one teams side. I think Michigan wins big.

Wow, that is some efficiency. Gardner seems his best on 3rd down and in the red zone.

Valenti picked Michigan 34-17. That just doesn't seem like him....

- UM easily covers the spread and wins 38 - 21. - Spread covered, 41-30
