This isn't like Iowa last year who took a bunch of 2 and 3 star recruits and had a magical run. This is a legitimately loaded team with lots of NFL talent and one of the best coaches on the planet.

I think Michigan would hold up vs Alabama.

I think that it would be 24-14, 24-17 type game. Michigan has the same type of speed as Alabama has. The speed myth is overplayed on this board.

Michigan would get bombed. No one can beat Bama. Certainly not Michigan, who is just a weaker version of LSU in a worse conference.


Outside of Alabama your conference isn't very good this year.

Yeah, it's amazing how SEC fanboys keep pushing that narrative. It's Bama that's great, no other team in the SEC scares anyone.

I'm not arguing Bama has a ton of talent, but people are acting like Michigan is not one of the top 10 most talented rosters in the country. They are. Hoke recruited as I said extremely well on the lines and those guys are seniors now

They're on the blue chip list of contenders at the beginning of the year. They aren't Alabama but they also aren't Arkansas.

Probably more of LSU-Alabama.


Michigan has far better downfield receiving threats than LSU to keep Bama honest. Jake Butt is a matchup problem. It is a 50/50 game.

Notre Dame didn't have a superstar corner like Jourdan Lewis. That Notre Dame team also had garbage WRs. UM has one of the top WR duos in the nation in Chesson and Darboh

I think that Bama would win 38-21 or something like that.
