U of M Wolverines thread 2007 - Detroit Pistons Fan Community

I just thought you guys might like a new thread. Your boys are playing better now and I would assume you would want to move on from the Appalachian State/Oregon stuff. But maybe I'm wrong...

Felt bad that Apple State was ranked higher than MSU last week in the AP rankings. This week, UM is 2 spots behind MSU in the AP ranking. I figured the UM reputation would have put US AHEAD IN THE POLLS by now............Figure on next week and UM will crack the top 25............State just cracks against Wisconsin.......

IMO I don't think either team should be ranked right now. U of M beat a crap Notre Dame squad and an overated Penn State. Big deal.

Sparty is 4-0 against...whom?

If Sparty wins next week, they deserve to be ranked at 5-0 and beating Wisconsin. I doubt they win that one, especially on the road.

U of M has Hart. That's it. I don't think any team that is 2-2 or 3-2 should be ranked in the top 25. They will /(SHOULD)beat up on Eastern and Northwestern. Big deal.

If both teams win next week.........MSU rated 17th.........UM 25th.

Michigan gets by on its reputation when it comes to the polls. State was only 17-21 in its last 38 with an excellent QB but a mediocre team.
Pollsters waiting to see if STATE will finish strong this season........Michigan needs to gain a record of 7-2 before I'm happy again...........

We'll see what happens. Michigan won a couple after losing a couple. They have to win a few more before they should be ranked anywhere at all.

Funny, I had the same thought yesterday. Then I thought about restarting my UM/OSU thread again but I told myself naaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Too early for that.

I'm OK with the new thread, although I think all UM fans should be reminded of that opening-game debacle.

IMO, UM should not be ranked the rest of the season, unless they beat Ohio State. They can't beat a spread offense. They can only win smash-mouth games. Rumor has it that Lloyd has never watched game film of any non-Big 10 teams.

Rumor has it that they were going to schedule Wofford for 2008 or 2009, but since Wofford cooled off Apple State this weekend, the AD is having second thoughts about it

. Is Slippery Rock available?

Hey, Harrison High has a good team. Maybe UofM should add them to the schedule for the next season.

Time to dust off the Wolverines thread. With 6 wins in a row, the Michigan team has made some great strides. A nice victory tonight with Mike Hart not playing and Chad Henne obviously injured as well. They look ready to at least challenge the remaining schedule, which looms very tough. Tied for the Big Ten lead is a very enviable position. Go Blue........
