Michigan vs. Ohio State

This Saturday the Wolverines of Michigan play the Buckeyes of OSU. This is one of the biggest games between these two football powers, possibly ever! OSU ranked number one in the country. Michigan right there at number two. The winner goes the the National Championship Game. WOW!!! Pat and I have had the privelege to see 4 Michigan games this season. It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine. We'll be in Cincinnati for the National Youth Workers Conference. No session or seminar will prevent us from watching the game saturday afternoon.
Michigan was a disappointing 7-5 last season. They credit some of their success this year by watching the movie "Cinderella Man." Before the season began, the team watched the movie. After that the coaches and players would watch clips at different times during the season. The team especially likes the scene where it said that James J. Braddock's not the same fighter he used to be. The Michigan football team vowed not to be the same team like last year. They want every opponent to say "That's not the same team we played last year." So far it's worked. Michigan is undefeated. My prediction is OSU players will be saying on Saturday, "That's not the same team we played last year." Michigan 24 - OSU 17. Go Blue!!
