Depends how we play. Keep it competitive, and I'd be surprised to see us drop much at all with a loss against the #2 team.

I'd say that any win gets us to about #6, a close loss leaves us at 12-14, and only a very bad loss would push us down to about 18.

A lot to gain, very little to lose here - good scheduling!

No excuse to get blown out here. We have experience. No freshman starters. This game better be close at worst.

No "or else". Tired of getting thumped in preseason neutral site games.

The or else, I suppose, is the staff should figure out why it's a regular occurrence and rectify it. Getting blown out is going to happen time to time. I can accept that. Losing to lesser teams or getting blown out shouldn't be a regular occurrence.

Time to become the Alpha versus the underdog.

MSU ISNT THIS GOOD!!!!! AHHHH. Watched them play Northwood and I'm not impressed. No depth at all and they're way too young.

Agree at the moment. Terrified to see what Izzo has all of that talent doing in March.

It was a pun, but not necessarily of the best taste.
