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)

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)

So I've got Michigan Starting 3-0. Stay tuned for part 2,3, and 4.
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.
