I don't necessarily agree this will be the outcome though. Why schedule more tough OOC games knowing you may lose, if you have a chance to lose 3 games in the conference schedule and could then be on the outside looking in with 4 losses? Might as well schedule cupcakes and get the easy wins...

It's a good question, and I was going to liken it to basketball season in my post! I can only speak for myself, but yes, I actually do think college regular season basketball games are less of a big event/something I'll make time to watch than weekly college football Saturday games. I normally...

I wonder if at some point, regular season ratings do drop (they haven't yet)? I'd like to think I'll be watching some of the marquee games less because why bother. It's all about playoff seeding anyway for the teams like Bama, Ohio State, Texas, Georgia.

Yes, Maryland is bad bad bad, but this is a road game and those are never easy. You just wonder if the defense turned a corner this past Saturday. I really think it'll come down to their play if we go bowling or not. Get this and hopefully we can steal one of Nebby or NW, and turn this into a...

This feels like a much less enticing slate of games this weekend after the chaos of last Saturday. Honestly don't see much I'm looking forward to besides maybe IU - Michigan & Ole Miss - Texas. Now having said that I'm sure i've set someone up for a huge upset (hopefully Oregon?)

Watching this play again makes me irrationally angry.

This past year was reasonable, but a few years back when we played them weren't they Kenpom #1 as a 5 seed? That's a pretty tough draw. Think they also beat the #1 seed in the next game.

Hopefully they lose some guys, believe there's a big class coming in there.

Saw this too - I doubt it, his father is just excited & hyping up his son. However, I think the ankles and knees of every upcoming MSU opponent would appreciate Fears not returning.

This is the most underrated post from this thread, by far :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

I mean Bryce Underwood basically did say this - he was asked once about going to Michigan and gave an awkward look implying that they don't develop QBs. Then picked it because they gave the biggest bag. But I guess it wasn't *that* outright, to your point.

I guess others have mentioned this, and I haven't included him in the equation - certainly an oversight! Haven't heard a ton about him before this portal season so I didn't have much idea of his fit here, especially without being a good defender.

Fair. I think they will be reloading though as well. Personally I think the loss of Keaton will be very difficult to overcome, but damn if Underwood isn't trying!!

I'll be honest, I don't get the talk of preseason #1, even with Blackwell. Let's assume #TheRetention happens, and we essentially "trade" Wagler for Blackwell. That to me isn't a step up - lateral at best. Of course, if we assume Andrej and Mirk make a big step forward, then I suppose it can...

This is my question too, unless they expect a few guys aren't returning.
