The offense clicks, the defense is solid and Michigan football rolls

It won’t be a surprise if Air Force has some offensive success or even keeps the game close for a half. But at the end of the day, Michigan football is going to win this one going away.

After the poor play last week, especially by Speight and the offense, Michigan will be motivated to look sharp. Jim Harbaugh probably hasn’t been easy on them this week and he will certainly use the Cincinnati game as a way to challenge his players to produce at a higher level.

I know Speight isn’t perfect, but he just seems due for a good week. And with Big Ten play starting next week, a positive showing couldn’t come at a better time.

In addition to Speight, I think Chris Evans breaks out of his slump too. Ty Isaac will still be the main ball carrier, but I see Evans having a 10 for 80 kind of day, with a long touchdown run at some point. Isaac will wear the Falcons down and Evans, with his explosive ability, will be the beneficiary.

Final Prediction: I see Michigan football winning this one something like 52-20. Hopefully, the Wolverines and Speight, don’t make me look like a moron.
