Yeah, ouch. The game that's fun to play, I think, is "Is this a bottom?" Assuming:

1) #13 Purdue is our toughest opponent this season and

2) our players and coaches progress well throughout the season, especially the freshmen, and

3) future recruiting classes will be as good as or better than the last one

4) UA continues to run a clean program

Then, will we ever be 35+ point underdogs again? Considering:

1) No MAC team should ever be 35 pts better than us

2) 2006 OOC opponents @PSU and @NC State

3) 2007 OOC opponents @Ohio St. and @Army

4) the potential of where we can be in 3 years and the likelihood of a new stadium announcement by then...

This may be the last time we are underdogs to this extent. Even @OSU in 07 we should have a little depth and we only lost by 14 last time at the Shoe.

I'll go out on a limb and say this is the worst position we'll be in from this time forward.

NIU gave michigan a good game. they turned the ball over four times which cost them.

BG offense is scary after watching them play wisconsin. they could light us up with alott of points. i agree this game may be a low point ,but we still have some tough mac games.hopefully we can get our freshman some valueable pt. we play some winnable games after the first three,and build from there.
