This is a false narrative. We took it in inside repeatedly. The officiating was glaringly one-sided period. I saw very few, what I would call forced 3s. By and large they were good looks. | |

| Ths kind of piss's me off. MSU jumps to 9th thats 5 places , yet they have an early schedule of all home games. They showed what happen when they go on the road and what an advantage it is to be home. Meanwhile Michigan has played road game against very tough opponents, and played well for periods of time and the fall like they have lead in their pockets . Drop from 2nd to out of the rankings in a month _________________ "HAIL HAIL MICHIGAN" Wanted John Harbaugh but I'll settle for JIM WITH AN ENTHUSIASM UNKNOWN TO MANKIND GOOO BLUE The Curse of Rich Rod

| I'm not worried about rankings. I'm worried about getting better each game.
The road is brutal in the Big Ten. For some reason they gave us something like 5 Sunday road games and 1 Sunday home game. That doesn't help.

| Actually I just looked ahead and we have a stretch where we have to make a lot of hay.
Feb 1 home Rutgers
Feb 4 home Ohio
Feb 8 Home msu
Feb 12 away Northwestern
Feb 16 home IU
We've got to win 4 of 5 to even think we'll have a chance. Winning all 5 would be fabulous. And possible.

Very winnable. 7-8 of those is very plausible. ALL NINE if Isaiah's back by, say, the third one, and near 100%. Note my choice of words: very WINNABLE. I never said/typed "Guaranteed wins"... | |

| Moving the Rutgers game to NYC is a sucky move. TV has too much power. | |

It would seem more logical if it was their home game that was moved. Our AD probably agreed to give our fans in that area a chance to come out. But if it costs us a win .... Maybe the commissioner could talk to the refs before the game and say: "this is supposed to be a Michigan home game, so they should get all of the whistles." Who am I kidding, we don't even get that big an edge at Crisler from the refs. | |

Hehe! Cute sarcasm there, Shoozie!! I'd have typed the web acronym "LOL", but unfortunately, there's rarely much to evoke laughter in COLD HARD TRUTH... | |

| I too was wondering why a Michigan home game would be in Rutgers back yard unless Michigan plans to be playing in the NIT finals in New York. _________________ "HAIL HAIL MICHIGAN" Wanted John Harbaugh but I'll settle for JIM WITH AN ENTHUSIASM UNKNOWN TO MANKIND GOOO BLUE The Curse of Rich Rod

| Michigan has a healthy donor fan base in the area and B1G gets potentially large broadcast audience on east coast, the whole reason for the Maryland/Rutgers idiocy. | |
