Utah vs. Michigan Prediction Thread
I just don't know what to think about this game. All signs point to the fact that Utah has a good chance to win, and I believe they do, but there are so many unknowns with Michigan that it's just hard to tell.
Probably heart over head on this one, but I think Utah wins it 31-21. |

Michigan: 24
Utah: 17 I think Utah has a great secondary but Michigan still has some of the best skill players out there, Matthews, Stonum, Mcguffie and Shaw are all very good. If Utah can get to the QB they have a good chance because Michigan has a patchwork O-line. However Michigans defense is arguably the best in the big 10 (I think Ohio State is #1 then Michigan) with two all-americans at corner in Donovan Warren and Morgan Trent, the number 1 corner recruit in the country in Boubacar Cissoko, returning all-big 10 safety Brandon Harrison and returning all-american nose tackle Terrence Taylor. I think Michigan is better than people think, but Utah does have a good chance to win this game.

Utah loses 24-22, as their 20 yard fieldgoal attempt hits the post as time runs out.

I predict I won't watch it, because I don't care about either team.
Good luck to everyone involved, though.

I think Utah has to keep this D-Line off balance all game and throw screens etc at them vs. running it between the tackles. They need to run these guys all over the field and tire them out. |

Michigan will get at least one defensive or special teams touchdown, but Utah SHOULD win this game. However, since KW is coaching, I have to go with Michigan. 24-17.
