I haven’t posted in a few days but I wanted to get up my
prediction for Saturday’s lone game. Here is my take on what to expect for
Northwestern at Michigan
No matter who is at quarterback, Michigan should be able to move the ball.
Northwestern is allowing just under 400 yards per game on defense this season.
This is a defense that Denard Robinson should be able to carve up with his legs
or Devin Gardner should be able to carve up with his arm. Where Michigan will have to be
sharp is on defense, as Northwestern is fourth in the Big Ten in scoring at
30.4 points per game. The Wildcats are very quick on the ground and Michigan will have to
contain running back Venric Mark, who has posted over 1,000 rushing yards this
year. I don’t see Michigan
being able to really dominate this game. Northwestern has had its two losses
come by a combined 12 points. Look for this game to be more of a shootout than
a defensive battle. Ultimately, Michigan
will make enough plays to win, but it will be a battle.
