Hard to call this game. San Diego State is a bowl winning, talented team, coached the last two seasons by Brady Hoke. Undefeated, just like us. Been playing their offense for two years now, not three weeks like us. They'll be up for the game.
So will we. But I'm not sure we will be ready for this first real test of the season. They won't fold for us like ND did. Still, we have improved every week of the season. Last week's practice game should have been a boost for both the offense and defense. And we have Denard Robinson.
If we come out of the box establishing Denard, instead of trying to establishing the running game, we could blow this wide open. Denard takes two steps left, the whole defense goes with him, opening up the receivers, and the running backs. This is backward, a Michigan team is supposed establish the running game first, but that hasn't worked. Do it in reverse.
Defense will have to keep improving. Mattison will again have to call a great game.
Michigan by less than a touchdown.
It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine
Go Michigan, Beat the Aztecs
I won't be watching the game, so I will need a guest blogger to do the follow up analysis this week. Going down to the Grove to experience the SEC and Ole Miss/Georgia Game. Any volunteers out there.
