The Official MICHIGAN vs penn state Score Prediction Thread

[TheVictors]

Well, here we are ...the stretch run of the 2018 MICHIGAN FOOTBALL campaign.

Coming off a much deserved 'IDLE' week and a win over little brother the weekend before, a well-rested and healthier #5 ranked Wolverine football program looks to host the 14th ranked (6-2) Penn State Nittany Lions. Beginning the year with what should have been a loss to everyone's favorite Cinderella, App State, the Nittany Lions have dropped two games - one to ohio state in come from behind loss fashion and a slapping at the hands of sparty.

Coach Franklin, once showered with praise as the new darling among BigTen coaches, faces his self-named arch nemesis in Jim Harbaugh, coming into the game as the road underdog with MICHIGAN at -10.5pts and an Over/Under of 52.5 total points. With some relatively close games this season and yielding an average of 23ppg, Penn State has yet to face a Defense like MICHIGAN's and a truly balanced attack such as the Maize and Blue's.

But we all know McSorley is a gamer ...as is Shea Patterson. During the history of the "rivalry" the Home Team has a dominant win/loss record, especially when playing as a Home Favorite. Over the more recent run, Penn State has had the advantage, winning five of the last eight, but prior to that MICHIGAN ripped off nine in a row vs Nittany.


Is it time to start another streak...??


So go ahead and post your score predictions with some supportive analysis if you wish, but leave the woofing and barking for other threads.

[UMRules06]

Michigan wins 24-20

I do think people are just assuming we are going to win solely because we beat Wisconsin and MSU the past two games....I don't think it will be that easy. Remember McSorley torched us last year on the ground. Biggest game of the year so far.

Keep the revenge tour rolling.

35-14 Michigan. Another dominating performance by the defense. Offense continues to improve behind the leadership of SP. Higdon puts up another 100+ yard game. PSU scores once in the 1st qtr and then again late in garbage time. McCaffrey takes the helm in the 4th qtr and leads the offense to scores another TD. Milton also sees the field.

I think PSU has a decent offense when they aren't shooting themselves in the foot. I feel good about the game and the point spread, though.

35-24

 

[gotime909]

I don’t think PSU is very good but in the nature of trolling I’ll say 34-24 PSU

looks like Monster has it.
