Their advantage is that they lost to a team last year, that lost to the team Bama ran out of the building in their bowl game

At this stage Bama has beat 4 ranked teams, including a team many have argued are CFP caliber. At this point in the season all 4 teams are experienced.

Weird take

I think this board is far to confident in this game. I don't know how but people have already forgotten that Jalen Milroe should have lost the Auburn game. He has had some decent games but has also had some dog shite games. If Michigan's defense is as good as they looked in the Big, and I understand that's a big if, they could very easily shut him down. I'm not saying its going to happen for sure but this board is acting like yall are playing a damn high school team.

It's a stupid argument but at least they tried to make it make sense logically by saying a lot of the players hadn't played in the cfb.

I guess if you're Michigan fan it's hard to find some hope/positivity when your team routinely walks through the big ten schedule like a hot knife through butter only to be bent over by any other p5 conference school.

Let em have this one.

I'm not. I think Michigan could win but they won't win the CFP.

That said, Alabama plays like they played Georgia and it will be ugly.

I think Michigan and the B1G are extremely overrated. The B1G will get exposed for years once the playoffs start. If Harbaw goes to the NFL, Michigan will be mediocre again.

This is one of the most ridiculous arguments that I see. One year it took Bama blocking a TN field goal... every single team, every single year, has a close game that they have to will to victory. Claiming X almost lost to Y doesn't hold much water because the matchups aren't the same, AU as a rivalry game, and countless other reasons.

Am I confident about blowing the doors off UM? No, but I'm cautiously optimistic because we matchup well.

Their schedule is pathetic to say the least.

They should really be touting the fact that Koy Moore will be sitting out for Bama in the CFP

Michigan has the higher floor, but also the lower ceiling. They are extremely consistent on a weekly basis. Their level of play rarely fluctuates very much from one game to the next. Bama has been wildly up and down (and really for the better part of the last 3 years) from week to week relative to the overall talent of the roster. However, when Bama is on, their best is better than everybody else's (except maybe Uga's is even).

I would say the same about Milroe as a QB to a degree. He is EXTREMELY dangerous. However, he can still be pretty rough around the edges for extended periods of game time.

If he's on all game and makes good, quick decisions on when to tuck it and run, Bama is a rolling ball of butcher knives.

As much as I hate UM. Hopefully, they do win it all and then it's vacated because of the cheating. Just to spit in the eye of this sham of a CFP and the committee.

Michigan has more experience at losing championship games.
