Okay I left off after the Notre Dame game. Michigan is 3-0. Next is a possibilty of a loss against Wisconsin.
Wisconsin
Last year Wisconsin beat Michigan ending any chance of a Rose Bowl if they lost to Ohio State(which they did). This year Wisconsin looks alot like they did last year exept weaker. I'll say a Michigan win. But possibly an injury or a sloppy game. That leaves alot of worries for they're next opponent..........the Illini.

Illinois is next
This game worries me. Juice Williams like it or not, is probably a top 8 heisman choice. I'm sure Rich Rod knows how to deal with mobile guys but this isn't just a mobile guy. Thats why i'll say the Illini win this one.

Next. Toledo
Ah finally a break after all this hard work. Coming off a loss to the Illini the Wolverines will be eager and attackful. Too attackful. They'll trail early but in the 2nd half they'll put the Rockets down. Oh that was close...

So here we are currently 5-1(1-1) Probably on the 25. Cant be any higher than 16 or so.
Side Notes
I'm predicting Michigan WR Greg Jackson so far to be having a 2nd/3rd Team ALL-BIG TEN season.
I think SR Terrance Taylor, SR Tim Jamison, and JR Brandon Graham will be having 2nd to 3rd Team All-Big 10 seasons. By now Taylor will have about 18 tackles and 3 sacks.
Jamison will have about 20 tackles 4 sacks.
Graham will have about 28 tackles and maybe a sack.
Sophmore CB Donavan Warren will be having a 1st Team All-Big 10 season.
About 60 days away on August 30 the Utah Utes will play the Michigan Wolverines in the Big House.
Records won't be in play yet. The teams will be 0-0.The Utes last year were 9-4(5-3)Michigan was 9-4(6-2). Michigan Stadium will likely be packed after last season ended on a good(not great) note after beating the Heisman winner Tim Tebow in Florida in the Capital One Bowl. Alot of things will change. No Mike Hart. No Chad Henne. No Mario Manningham. No Jake Long. No Lloyd Carr. And from what I here no Nike. A spread offense. But at least one thing will be the same. It's Opening day at Michigan Stadium. Last year's opening day was a shock, and an eye opener.
I predict this years opening day will be the opposite. It will likely be a solid defeat. I'll say because of the holes in the Michigan defense the score will be
Utah Michigan
27 38
Next game, Sept, 6. Miami(ohio).
This wont be as close. Miami only one 1 game outside of it's conference. Michigan's D will clamp down.
Miami(ohio) Michigan(2-0)
10 35
Two victories to start the season. Next is the big challenge. Notre Dame ended the season with 2 wins and has a great recruiting class. Jimmy Clausen might just start to develope this year.
I'll say Michigan wins but not quite as easy as it was last year.
Notre Dame Michigan(3-0)
24 28
So I've got Michigan Starting 3-0. Stay tuned for part 2,3, and 4.
5 QB's Ten Years Down the road. Let's start with the best.
Matt Ryan.AKA-Solid Tall, strong , smart, likable guy. 10 years from now He'll be the starting QB for the Dolphins. The Dolphins seasons will slowly improve with time and Matt will get much of the credit then after 5 years of rebuilding he'll lead the phins to a division title and a Conference championship loss. 3 years of stead football later he'll be in the Super Bowl losing. Next season they'll be 9-7 and loose in wild card play. Next year will be similar.
Overall:
Pro Bowls-3
Super Bowls-1(lost)
All Pro-2
Stats 162 TDs 71 INTS
NEXT
Chad Henne AKA Late bloomer.He'll be QB for the Baltimore Ravens. After the retirement of Steve McNair after next season Chad will once again battle Troy Smith but this time for playing time. After a 1.5 years of Troy, Chad will take over and for the .5 of the season look solid. After 2 years of shakyness he'll be on the hot seat. Over the next 5 years he'll improve to lead the Ravens to a Super Bowl victory in 4 playoff apperances.
Overall
Pro Bowls-2
Super Bowls-1(win)
All Pro-0
Stats 103 TDs 51 INTs
LAST
Colt Brennan AKA-SurpriseAfter being picked up by the Bears he'll be put in as a starter after 2 years of Grossman/Orton/Griese musical QBs. He'll shine. He'll shock. He will surprise. He'll immediately lead them to a playoff apperance, the following year a conference title game loss. Then the next year a wild card loss. Then the next year a clutch Super Bowl victory. After 3 more years of first round exits he'll win the big one again. He's gonna be somebody.
Love Michigan football. Carolina Panthers. UNC Basketball. Detroit Tigers/Red Sox. Actually I'm not a Tiger guy. My parents love them but my uncle(who i was close with) gave me a Sox hat for my 6th B-day. When I saw MY hat on TV. I guess that was the moment. I'd like to see more successful Tiger seasons but at least I've got the Red Sox to cheer me up(although they don't look too good).
I guess my story is Born in Michigan moved to North Carolina at 13 and saw first ever home panthers game. I loved them for some reason.
