what will the Boneyard posts look like? It's like Lucy finally holding the ball for Charlie Brown to kick. You see it happen but don't know how to understand its meaning. Will there be posts lauding PP for an outstanding game? Will GDL be the darling of the Boneyard? Will Jacobs talk about the "How the hell did that happen" kids?

I fear for a UCONN win because the resulting kharma and vibrations may set off an chain reaction that will rock the ages.

Time for my third Landshark.

It'll be another reason to believe, and then get your hearts ripped out vs buffalo. Still be 1-2 but I was hoping for a 2-2 non conference start anyways. The season for me starts when the conference schedule begins. Still have the bowl tie-ins at least there's hope for that. Beating Michigan will be something the program could build around, but that's what we thought after ND, South Carolina..

I'll worry about how I'll celebrate and what this means for the program once it happens. Until then, I'm practicing face palms this week. Saturday night is going to be chicken wings and Samuel Adams Angry Jacks bombers.

It'd be one of the biggest home wins ever. If that means nothing to you, are you dead inside?!

I sorta get what you're saying. A win'll be great. Good times will be had by all. But look at the way P followed up his two big wins last year. With two complete turds.

My bar for success is set a bit lower. I would be happy if we even gave them a competitive game and the network doesn't cut away to the other game. We need to capitalize on this opportunity in some fashion.

Would be the greatest win yet...and set up a very interesting question as to whether that somehow absolves P and GDL from the horrible job they have done and will likely revert to for the remainder of the season. I would not be shocked if there was another "Louisville anomaly", but then again there is no aspect of the team that is exceptional unlike the D last year. Something extraordinary and out of character must occur like the D clicks or O clicks in an unexpected way.

A win against Michigan will save PP for now. I never pull for a loss, but it sure would be sweet to be free of this regime. Im very torn on my emotions about this game. I'd love to win, but I think Warde just told us that a bad loss will bring immediate change and that too, is a big win for a fan.

It would be great, much like last years Ville Game. I hope this the WTF win of the year.

It'll mean that 1) I'll be tailgating afterward until I get asked to leave by a cop or a guy in a golf cart 2) That hell has likely frozen over 3) I won't be able to speak on the flight home Sunday morning 4) PP has probably pushed out the inevitable until year end.

Only number 4 will bother me.

It would be GREAT for the players, the fans and the students. It would also be nice to show Michigan/B1G fans a taste of some rowdy atmosphere in our home stadium. As for what it would mean for PP, it means he won't be fired this week but Warde reserves the right to change his mind. And he likely will when they drop one to Buffalo the following week.

If by some (to steal from Spackler) act of God we do win Saturday, it will be a great thing for our collective psyches and a huge boost to the kids on the team. It likely will assure the full season for P but that is all it will do for him as being 1-2 at this point would not earn any praise. For P this would basically net out with the Towson loss.

It also would indicate that our scout team is faster than Michigan's starters.

I wouldn't worry about this. Worry about global warming, gun control, Syria, one of the Kardashians becoming the next POTUS. Don't worry about Uconn beating Michigan.

I actually think we got a shot at winning this game. I hacked into PP's computer and found this. He is pulling out all the stops to win "the impossible game".
