"Michigan isn't the same team"

Hilariously says more about how shite Ohio State is in that case if they still clapped them

Bama only loses when they play a QB having a elite game. JJ McCarthy Is not going to win this game

It's hard to tell whether Michigan has just been super conservative because of all of the turmoil surrounding the program and because they haven't had to open things up, or if their offense is just really limited.

We're going to find out on New Year's Day.

Michigan was going to lose this game with or without Stallions

I'd rather UM be the underdog.

I can’t, for the life of me, figure out why they aren’t.


It takes a specific set of circumstances for Alabama to be an underdog. And we’ve seen it, what, twice? Both to Georgia?

Absolutely nothing about this Michigan team, their style, or play on the field screams favorite over Alabama.

(This isn’t commentary on who I think is better)

Nick isn't often the team with the worse offensive and defensive line. The line is pushed a bit because of the one seed and Michigan's brand I assume

My assumption is that it's a close Bama win. This would most likely be the national championship game if the matchups were different. People come on here to talk about Michigan due to the amount of Ohio State fans forgetting to replace their tampons on this board but Washington is the biggest fraud team in the playoffs

Alabama will beat Michigan, but the coaches interviewed in OP article are all whiny figs.

Their numbers started to suffer because they started playing teams with any pulse at all. Not much of one, mind, but some.

Michigan is overvalued because the Big Ten is once again an overrated dumpster fire.

Not to mention all those teams were sharing Michigans signals amongst each other

Teams with a month to prepare for Milroe is also a big deal.

Then why has Milroes QB rating improved as the season has gone on?

From the point in time they started running him consistently against UT he’s a top 3 QB in ESPN rating behind only Daniels in P5.

I could easily see Alabama struggling on offense, as half the time they could stop themselves against air.

But I think(I could be way wrong) Michigan will struggle to score 17 points.

What constitutes a team with a "pulse"?

Michigan has not faced a team with the speed like Bama. This will be by far the best team they have played this year. Bama will beat Michigan with ease…

Saban won’t coach like a scared a-hole like Ryan Day did. Alabama will win by 2 scores.

They also love to ignore that this same Auburn team that almost beat Alabama gave Georgia similar problems in Jordan-Hare the month before. In each game Auburn rushed for 200+ yards and had the lead late.



SO you're saying Bama's best win was also against a flawed team that struggled against Auburn?
