Can anyone imagine the emotion, excitement, intensity, spotlight it will be if OSU is going into Ann Arbor undefeated against (what SHOULD be) a pretty good UM team (possibly undefeated as well). Could we see a #1 vs #2 matchup again next year? The game will be epic! It could also bring back the Big Ten respect.







I doubt Michigan will be undefeated, if their T leaves earlier they'll have to replace 4 starters on the OL and another 8 starters all together. But you never know. I wouldn't mind it playing out like that, so we would get to beat them again in the B1G championship game.
Won't be as hyped. Why? If they're both undefeated it will mean that no matter what the outcome is, they will be playing again the very next week in the BigTen championship.
"YOLO" = I'm about to do something extremely ignorant/stupid & I need an excuse to do it.
But the loser would likely miss out on the chance to play for the National Championship..
Unless said loser turns around a wins the rematch and then its "OMG CHAOS!"
4-6 seconds from point A to point B and when you get to point B, be pissed off
I'd like for tSUN to be playing for the chance to play us again the following week. But of course lose to the Undefeated Buckeyes who then go to the B1G CG and hang 77 on Nebraska - because that just seems like the right thing to do.
But how exciting would it be? It would mean a matchup in Indy again, but I dont think that the second game would be as exciting...
provided we win both weeks, it would be one of the best two week spans of my life. haha
Michigan will likely lose 2-3 games prior to playing tOSU... ND, @Mich St., Nebraska

If we actually end up playing tSUN Twice every year a couple of times; Urban could break all sorts of records for wins against tSUN. Two years from now we could be talking about how Urban is the first head coach to beat tSUN 5 times in 3 years :-).
Michigan will have some problems next year IMO. I wouldnt expect them to go undefeated but then again who really knows right now.
It would be two weeks of chaos if TSUN is also undefeated. It would still be massive anyway. I think TSUN will have a loss or two coming in, though. Even at 9-2 they'll probably still be ranked in the top 20. Should be a lot of fun.
Class of 2010.
Stop the talk about Michigan going undefeated through 11 games. It won't happen. Like Kareem said at the top, we're losing 3 OL starters for sure, and Lewan is likely going pro. We'll have lot's of talent and lot's of inexprerience. If Taylor stays, his leadership will be key in Michigan's success, but it's highly unlikely that we'll run the table.
OSU should come into The Game undefeated, on paper. I personally don't think it will happen just because it's so difficult to do, but they're setup very well to do so.

24-0 going into NCG sounds about right to me.
no worry for scum, it's Urban vs. Hoke, you worry? seriously.
*25-0, You forgot about the conference championship :)
if tOSU beats them twice in one year, does that mean the players get two pairs of gold pants????
Better yet, Shane Morris can be the first QB to go 0-8 against the Bucks!
Yes, I realize he won't start his freshman year and potentially not even his sophomore year (depends on Gardner redshirt) but it would be hilarious to see somenoe go 0-8
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
Excellent question! But if they go 1-1, do they have to trade the gold pants in for aluminum jorts?
Would or strength of schedule allow us to be 1&2 I could see tOSU at 1 with a 23 game win streak but I don't know if scUM would get the same love going 8-4 and most likely getting beat by South Carolina
Wherever you are, there you be!
Again, it won't happen, but Michigan has a much stronger SOS than OSU. ND, @MSU, NEB, @PSU, OSU...also @NW and @Iowa
OSU has PSU and Iowa at home, but also travels to NW.
If Michigan goes undefeated through 11, they'll be up there.
Those who stay will be CHAMPIONS!

Michigan has 0% chance of being 11-0 going into The Game next year.
Can't you let those people have their little dreams? It's so cute , like kids on Christmas Eve.
Vegas will probably have us about 30 to 1, so probably around 3.33%.
Those who stay will be CHAMPIONS!

If so, that will be easiest money I'll ever make.
I can't wait for 2014. Michigan plays Appalachian State.
Such great memories!
Our honor Defend!
I take it those are Appy State fans at the front LOL. Either that or confused TTUN fans, probably both
I'm looking forward to another great season next year but am keeping my expectations tempered for the simple reason Miller always seems one play away from the IR. When he went down in the Purdue game I could hear the collective gasp of OSU fans clear down here in Florida. We got another 12 weeks of that coming next fall. Of course I am excited, just reserved. Let's get the team intact through the offseason first.
