OK, the Spartans will be the toughest test, but they scored only 31 on Rutgers and we put up 52. They could be relaxing after that unreal win over their rivals. So maybe Jordan Howard comes back and runs for 200-plus.
We have Iowa and Michigan at home. Iowa is solid, 7-0, but they haven't seen an offense like ours. And now that Michigan has two losses, their playoff aspirations in Jim Harbaugh's first season are by the wayside. Also, we're probably going to be favored, if not even, in the Maryland and Purdue games. I actually think there will be less pressure on us after the Rutgers game, because we've dramatically lowered expectations. We can go for it on every single fourth down.
