cfn.scout.com/2/1107342.htmlWhat Will Happen: Be very, very careful, Michigan. The Wolverines haven’t played all that well over the first three weeks and are hardly fully jelled. With the balance of Ryan Lindley through the air and Hillman on the ground, San Diego State is dangerous, but this is the game when the supporting cast helps out Robinson. The running backs will do more and the receivers should have an advantage against the Aztec corners. Michigan will win, but it’ll sweat. CFN Prediction: Michigan 31 … San Diego State 27

Ha. So all of a sudden we have weak corners. I guess a couple big play highlight will do that. However, they fail to realize none of those plays were against McFadden and that receiver from WAZZU is pretty damn good. Michigan doesn't have anyone near that big and talented. If they do, they sure haven't shown up yet this year. |

If you don't have a QB who can throw then it doesn't matter how good your receivers.

If our secondary can turn around and look for the ball on deep throws, they'll pull in their fair share of INTs. Robinson loves floating it (usually underthrown balls) and having his receivers adjust to the ball and go get it.

That is a joke....Marquess Wilson is better than any receiver that UM has...if UM wins its not based on any prediction its based on home field advantage and the intangible advantage that that can give...this game is going to be good. I think the Aztecs win a nail biter...I think we go down by 14 and creep back up with a steady running game in the predicted rain for the weekend. Aztecs 27 Michigan 21 |

When he's inaccuarte he's terrible as a passer. I think Borges is starting to realize the part of Robinson's game that shows up every week, his running, and he's starting to feature it more. That and his running backs aren't the type of runners for the pro set. |

He is no Lindley when it comes to the long ball. |

If they picked Michigan, I feel better about the game already

We have nothing to lose actually. The Wolverines are expected to win. They're the ones who may be tightly wound up while our guys play fast and loose. Worst case, as long as we beat the spread I'll be satisfied. Our bandwagon fans interest shouldn't wane with a loss provided the score isn't lopsided.

Strange but logical stat from an obscure gambling site linked by Philip to the MW board: The five active coaches who have switched schools and then played their former team were just 1-4 against the pointspread in that game. Particularly considering how well SDSU has historically played against Midwestern big boys and that the line has moved 2-2.5 points toward Michigan this week, the Aztecs at +10 or particularly +10.5 are probably a great bet right now.
If we don't turn it over, I think it's going to be close deep into the fourth quarter. And since Rocky eats nails for breakfast and his players are beginning to too, we could actually win outright.

Until we win a big time game on the road, it would be foolish for anybody - especially a non-Aztec fan - to take us over Michigan. We are a double digit dog, fighting history and conference strength. I think we can win. I actually think we match up pretty well. What I worry about most is the wild card of getting our hearts broken on a couple of plays that were well defended, but that Robinson turns into big gainers. My other concerns are that Lindley hasn't played great yet. If he handles this game and their 100K like he handled ND his freshmen year, I really like our chances.
But it would be hard to pick SDSU if I worked for CBS Sportsline and was picking w/out the spread.

Yeah, but the only thing that really matters is they are 3-2 |
