Well there is only two weeks left for college football, well okay there is only two more weeks left for Michigan football and afterall that's all that really counts anyway.
We do have several weeks left for the Detroit Lions though. How lovely is that? Yeah I know they are 0 for the season so far but for some odd reason I still watch them every Sunday. I am starting to think I like disappointment in my life. This week they are at the Carolina Panthers who are at the opposite end of pro football life with a 7-2 record. There is no reason to think the Lions actually have a chance to win this game. I know the great Daunte Culpepper is starting for the Lions again, I mean who can argue with last weeks performance 5 for 10 passing for 105 yards and 1 interception. I think he deserves to start don't you? Actually I am glad he is starting because I don't think it really matters who starts at quarterback for the Lions on Sunday because they aren't going to survive anyway. Let's keep this short and simple Panthers 38 Lions 6. Thank god the Lions have Jason Hanson or they would be in real trouble.
Michigan plays those brainy guys from Northwestern today at Michigan Stadium. Northwestern was having a good year until two weeks ago and now they seem to be going in the wrong direction. Michigan on the other hand looks like they are improving every week. Two weeks ago I would have given NW an easy win but now I'm not so sure. If, and I mean if, Michigan plays the way they did last weekend they will win this game easily. I think Michigan may have played its best game of the year last week so I don't think they will duplicate it again this week.
Hold on I got a phone call coming in...Hello....Hi John (not peej)...You got an extra ticket?...To what?...Green Bay Packers football game?...Sure I'll go.....We're tailgating before the game?....I pick up the brats for you.....Ok...Thanks, see you tomorrow.
Okay I'm back. Anyway Michigan 27 Northwestern 24.
Michigan State is off this week so they shouldn't be able to screw up their chance for the Rose Bowl but I wouldn't bet on that this is afterall still Michigan State football team and anything is possible.
As we already know if you read Sarah's blog Notre Dame is playing Navy this week at the home of the Baltimore Ravens. I say the heck with the game I am more interested in the Inner Harbor in Baltimore, that's a much more interesting place than a Notre Dame football game. ND has struggled for the last couple of weeks on offense so it will be interesting to see what ND team shows up today. I think this could be a good game today because Navy is much improved in the last couple of years. Navy is riding a one game winning streak in this series after ND won like 40,000 games in a row. I really think this game can go either way but I am picking the Irish today. It's hard to see them losing 3 games in a row. Notre Dame 31 Navy Midshipmen 24.
There you go this weeks useless uninformed predictions. Let's see your predictions and see how you stack up.
Update on Michigan Tech football: They didn't make the Division II football playoffs so their season is done. They finished at 8-3, not to bad especially where the program was at just a few short years ago.

Are you seriously going to a Green Bay football game?
Yes seriously I am and they are playing the Chicago Bears.
I'm jealous. However, it might be interesting to note that I will be in South Bend next Saturday to watch my favorite Notre Dame team. (sarcasm). However, I'm extremely excited to witness and experience all of the culture and happenings of the famous Fighting Irish.
Aren't they playing some high school team called Syracuse or something like that? Oh well take lots of pictures.
Wow bears packers you are lucky! At the bears game the other weekend they were ignoring the lions and just kept cheering "beat packers" the whole game it was pretty funny.
I told peej no michigan gear or he won't get a ticket.
Exciting game today (Notre Dame not Michigan)eh? Were you getting nervous when ND didn't get that second onside kick? I would've been.
Did you make it to the Inner Harbor?
were we getting nervous? you bet. especially when time became an issue and they awarded navy an extra timeout. maybe they were carryover timeouts from the previous game? the major issue was the clock stopped and we needed every tick off that clock we could get.
