-Big Ten road games against Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan state, and Illinois (thats 4 losses right there)
-Big Ten home games against Ohio State (loss), Penn State (loss), Indiana (toss up) and Purdue (tossup)
-Notre Dame at home (loss)
-another tough non conference opponent like Oregon or Utah (loss)
-two MAC teams, one of them against Western Michigan (we’ve barely managed to win 5 of our last 7 games against MAC teams, and finally, Toledo broke down the door. WMU is much better then Toledo). Both these games will be losses as well
So here’s my question: will Michigan actually go winless in 2009?

sorry. i can’t be serious. i hear what you’re saying. but just on pride alone (something that the wolverines have … even a little … and the Lions don’t), the wolverines should win at least one.
but it’s gonna get worse before it gets better. we shouldn’t be surprised. rod will have to get serious about recruiting the right players for his system. (gee, i don’t like calling him that. people may associate him w/ marinelli now. yelch.)
Cupcake (let’s pretend Portland State): W
Notre Dame: L
Cupcake (let’s pretend Florida International): W
Indiana: W
At this point, Wolverines fans will be happy to see Michigan going 3-1, saying “I told you so” that RichRod would turn the program around in the second season, but then the rest of the season starts.
@ Michigan State: L
@ Iowa: L
Penn State: L
@ Illinois: L
Purdue: toss up (depends on how effective their Joe Tiller lookalike coach is)
@ Wisconsin: L
Ohio State: L
Western Micigan: L
Michigan finishes 3-9 or 4-8, depending on who RichRod schedules for cupcakes and on Purdue. Right now, Michigan is looking like its Bump Elliot era self. If I have my two cupcakes picked right, next year could look better for Michigan. Indiana is prepetually crap so Michigan gets that win, especially at the Big House. Now, if you have brutal non-conference opponents scheduled, then you’re looking at a 1-11 or 2-10 season.
