Tell Me About Michigan
The line is surprisingly low at Michigan -21.5 I'm not sure if Fresno will score more than 3 points against arguably the best defense in the country... but can Michigan score more than 24? They should be able to run on Fresno rather easily, but that'll shorten the game. Decent chance though that Michigan just runs it on them easily scores a TD on almost every drive if their OL is actually as good as their mods seem to believe it could be

Seems likely Brown vs Woods vs Hutchinson vs Skononick seems like the bigger battle. I'd think Brown makes it, do they take a 6th?- 2024 Houston Texans off-season thread

I think Michigan will live in twelve personnel, and when they aren't in 12, they'll be bringing in extra OL or a third TE. They'll do all of this with an excellent running QB (not a dual threat, he can't pass), and that extra number in the run game you have to account for should make their running game extremely efficient. Play action from this should have guys running wide open all over the field, and it'll be up to orgy to hit wide open passes. They're going to body blow you all game and bank on gashing you in their last couple of drives to break your will They potentially have the best defense in the country, so playing the ball control and field position games makes sense as an overall strategy, although it's arguably not the best way to win in modern college football, and I don't think it'll work on Texas- 2024 Fall Camp Thread - Bubble Wrap ALL THE RB
An interesting thing about the first two games is we might be in mostly dime in game one and then mostly "base" (non-nickel) against Meat Chicken- 2024 Fall Camp Thread - Bubble Wrap ALL THE RB
I think that was priced into the -35 line. I think Sark, a week ahead of Michigan, taking important players out earlier and running clock wasn't- 2024 Fall Camp Thread - Bubble Wrap ALL THE RB
I think there's a good chance Texas doesn't cover this one (opened at -35, was bet down recently to -32.5), but I was thinking more along the lines of a backdoor cover with Sark calling off the dogs early and looking ahead to Michigan than CSU hanging around throughout the game, but both are in the realm of likely possibilities- 2024 Houston Texans off-season thread

Players Texas will see this year in the regular season on Brugler's top 50 big board Michigan 1) Will Johnson- CB 4) Mason Graham- DT 21) Colston Loveland- TE 30) Kenneth Grant- DT Georgia '8) Carson Beck- QB 9) Malaki Starks- S 14) Mykel Williams- Edge 40) Jalon Walker- LB A&M 19) Nic Scourton- Edge 24) Conner Weigman- QB Oklahoma 38) Danny Stutsman- LB 48) Deion Burks- OU Kentucky 17) Deone Walker- DT 32) Maxwell Hairston- CB Arkansas 39) Landon Jackson- Edge- 2025 NFL Draft
An interesting difference between Tice and Brugler is Mykel Williams; Tice said on his pod that Mykel Williams is his #1 prospect (although he said Will Johnson and Abdul Carter are in the conversation), calling him Travon Walker but good at pass rushing- 2025 NFL Draft
Brugler's big board 1) Will Johnson- CB- Michigan 2) Abdul Carter- Edge- PSU 3) Travis Hunter- CB/WR- Colorado 4) Mason Graham- DT- Michigan 5) James Pearce Jr- Edge- Tennessee 6) Tetairoa McMillan- WR- Arizona 7) Luther Burden- WR- Missouri '8) Carson Beck- QB- Georgia 9) Malaki Starks- S- Georgia 10) Will Campbell- OT- LSU 11) Benjamin Morrison- CB- Notre Dame 12) Shavon Revel Jr- CB- East Carolina 13) Emery Jones Jr- OT- LSU 14) Mykel Williams- Edge- Georgia 15) Kelvin Banks Jr- OT- Texas 16) Tyleik Williams- DT- Ohio State 17) Deone Walker- DT- Kentucky 18) Shedeur Sanders- QB- Colorado 19) Nic Scourton- Edge- A&M 20) Harold Perkins- LB- LSU 21) Colston Loveland- TE- Michigan 22) Jonah Savaiinaea- IOL- Arizona 23) Quinn Ewers- QB- Texas 24) Conner Weigman- QB- A&M 25) Ashton Jeanty- RB- Boise State 26) Aireontae Ersery- OT- Minnesota 27) JT Tuimoloau- Edge- Ohio State 28) Lander Barton- LB- Utah 29) Patrick Payton- Edge- FSU 30) Kenneth Grant- DT- Michigan 31) Mansoor Delane- CB- Va Tech 32) Maxwell Hairston- CB- Kentucky 33) Emeka Egbuka- WR- Ohio State 34) Denzel Burke- CB- Ohio State 35) Ollie Gordon II- RB- Okie State 36) Omarion Hampton- RB- UNC 37) Elic Ayomanor- WR- Stanford 38) Danny Stutsman- LB- Oklahoma 39) Landon Jackson- Edge- Arkansas 40) Jalon Walker- LB- Georgia 41) Jahdae Barron- CB- Texas 42) Barrett Carter- LB- Clemson 43) Isaiah Bond- WR- Texas 44) Walter Nolen- DT- Ole Miss 45) Jack Sawyer- Edge- Ohio State 46) Darrell Jackson Jr- DT- FSU 47) Sam Brown- WR- Miami 48) Deion Burks- WR- Oklahoma 49) Evan Stewart- WR- Oregon 50) Drew Allar- QB- PSU- 2025 NFL Draft
Brugler and Daniel Jeremiah are the two best public draft guys. They're pretty good at not only scouting, but also talking to front office personnel from every team in the league to help guide their mocks/big boards to make sure they aren't too far off. I think Tice is really good too, although his still will be farther off from consensus because he just straight up gives his opinions without regard to how the league views things Brugler is usually way ahead of the curve on guys, and he's releasing his first big board today. Tice should release an updated one tomorrow I believe. DJ doesn't usually release anything until the season is over. I think everyone else is run-of-the-mill and basically puts out echo chamber work that anyone of us could do Here's a mock from one of those guys, Field Yates 1) Carson Beck- QB- Georgia 2) James Pearce Jr- Edge- Tennessee 3) Kelvin Banks- OT- Texas 4) Shedeur Sanders- QB- Colorado 5) Mykel Williams- Edge- Georgia 6) Will Johnson- CB- Michigan 7) Mason Graham- DT- Michigan '8) Quinn Ewers- QB- Texas 9) Nic Scourton- Edge- A&M 10) Will Campbell- OT- LSU 11) Travis Hunter- WR/CB- Colorado 12) Benjamin Morrison- CB- Notre Dame 13) Tetairoa McMillan- WR- Arizona 14) Malaki Starks- S- Georgia 15) Denzel Burke- CB- Ohio State 16) Emery Jones- OT- LSU 17) JT Tuimoloau- Edge- Ohio State 18) Colston Loveland- TE- Michigan 19) Luther Burden III- WR- Missouri 20) Deone Walker- DT- Kentucky 21) Jonah Savaiinaea- OG/OT- Arizona 22) Abdul Carter- Edge- Penn State 23) Harold Perkins- LB- LSU 24) Patrick Payton- Edge- FSU 25) Emeka Egbuka- WR- Ohio State 26) Donovan Jackson- OG- Ohio State 27) Tacario Davis- CB- Arizona 28) Isaiah Bond- WR- Texas 29) Tyler Booker- OG- Alabama 30) Landon Jackson- Edge- Arkansas 31) Kenneth Grant- DT- Michigan 32) Tommy Hill- CB- NebraskaFootball ...
