re: Michigan by 2?

Agreed only because Saban is still the coach with a month to prepare, and the stage will get to Michigan more than Bama. Otherwise, I'd say Bama's run defense will cost them the game. UT straight-up bullied them, and just last week Auburn ran all over them. Bama's defense overall is worse than OSU's and not much better than Penn States; Michigan did fine in those games.

Milroe will get his against anyone he plays. The only upside for Michigan is that they rotate a ton of guys on defense, so when Milroe extends drives with his feet, it won't exactly wear Michigan down like it would against other teams.

I'm thinking 23-20 Bama because, well, Saban.
