| 0:00.0 | I think Ballas from the Wolverine.com, the Michigan insider on the huge show across Michigan. |
| 0:05.5 | He's standing by on the Meyer guest line. |
| 0:08.3 | How you doing, Chris? |
| 0:09.6 | Hey, Billy. |
| 0:10.1 | Doing great, my friend. |
| 0:11.4 | Yeah, so Tim May was on about 25 minutes ago and pretty confident in saying he believes Ohio State will beat Michigan State and take care of Michigan at the Big House a week from Saturday. |
| 0:25.6 | I'd probably agree with them. |
| 0:27.2 | I don't know how confident I'd be, but I think they're the best team in the Big Ten. |
| 0:30.8 | Now, in speaking to some players who played in the past, |
| 0:34.4 | this is the kind of Michigan team that would knock off a more talented Ohio State team in the past. These guys are tight. They've got enough |
| 0:41.2 | playmakers, I think, at some positions, especially defensive end, to at least make |
| 0:45.2 | things interesting. Hassan Haskins, if you get 30 carries and 180 yards or something like that |
| 0:50.8 | from him, you're talking about a guy who had 104 yards after contact against Penn State bill, and I think that they can make a game of it and keep it pretty tight. But you've got to get by Maryland first. And Ohio State's got to get by Michigan State. Michigan State's got the worst past defense in all of college football, but Ohio State isn't a whole lot better. So expecting kind of a shootout there. And we've seen Michigan State go down there and surprise people in the past at Ohio State, something Michigan hasn't done. So both of these teams have to take care of business this week, but it's hard not to look ahead because it would be the first time in a long time, Bill, that Michigan and Ohio State were playing for some kind of a title in Ann Arbor. |
| 1:27.9 | Usually it's happened at Ohio State, |
| 1:30.1 | but if it could happen in Ann Arbor, right now the ticket is unbelievable. |
| 1:33.9 | They're going for like $350 a piece in the end zone or $400, |
| 1:36.6 | a lot of people want to be there. |
| 1:38.4 | But again, got to take care of business first this Saturday. |
| 1:40.7 | And what about that business first game against Maryland? |
| 1:44.4 | What do you like about the matchup that could make for an easy Saturday for hardball |
| 1:49.3 | on the Wolverines to get to the game against Ohio State at 10 and 1? |
| 1:54.7 | Yeah, I just don't like anything about Maryland's team, to be honest with you, |
