Furthest western state in the eastern time zone. On lake Michigan in late June the western sky is often still blew at 10:30 pm.
When max bullough's grandpa Hank started coaching in Buffalo years ago it was a lot darker at 8pm there in august then it usually is in Michigan at 8 pm. The buffalo reporters quoted him as saying "man it gets late early out here."

Georgetown defeats Tennessee 37-36. Wisconsin thinks they ran to much.

Haha. A co worker who doesn't like sports has his dad coming into town tonight. Dad likes sports. He asked me what to watch. I told him for the love of god don't watch the Georgetown Tennessee game. Pac-12 champ game would probably be his best bet. So far, I'm right.

UM VS ATM sounding like a lock in the Cap One now. This will be my first time ever rooting for UM. Any tips?

Prepare to be disappointed.

A&M doesn't have much of a defense. If you can control the clock and keep Manziel in the pocket (easier said than done) then you have a chance.

Michigan in the Capital One Bowl against a highly touted SEC team with the Heisman Ttophy winner at QB? Been there. Done that.
2008 Capital One Bowl*
Michigan 41
Florida 35
*Urban Meyer's (and Tim Tebow's) only bowl loss.

10 starters on that '07 team ended up being draft picks. And that team still wasn't very good. I think this years team has maybe 5 or 6? Jake Ryan, Blake Countess (assuming he can recover from his injury), Denard, Lewan, and Devin Gardner. I might be missing some since I haven't payed much attention to draft coverage.

If Wiscy wins, Nebraska is going to the Cap 1 bowl. (I think)

They'll have the choice of Nebraska and Northwestern, so probably Nebraska, with Michigan to the Outback and Northwestern to the gator.

The starters for Michigan have been Burke, Vogrich, Hardaway, Robinson, and Morgan.
The lineup I like the best for Michigan is Burke, Stauskus, Hardaway, Robinson, and one of Morgan/McGary. 4 legitimate scoring threats. This is the lineup that closes the game.
I wanted Stauskus starting, but some fans made good points that with Vogrich starting, Michigan can bring in a scoring threat like Stauskus in with other backups (not Akunne) and the offense can keep flowing.

I think Stauskus should start. Vogrich seems like the odd man out in the lineup right now
MSU's starters are Appling, Harris, Valentine, Dawson, Nix. I like that lineup

I thought the idea of a sixth man was to be able to come in and give you points?

I thought that also. But when the rotations start, there can be stretches of no offense with only 1 or 2 real scoring threats.

You guys were right. Izzo's still got a lot left. He's turned this team around in less than a week and has them firing on all cylinders. Has the look of a FF team at least. Bravo, Izzo. Bravo.

I used to get aggravated at every November loss. When you start watching Izzo teams, you realize how little November matters for anything other than development. We'll see a better indication of how good or otherwise this team is in Big Ten season.
