Down goes North Carolina. And everyone's darling Tennessee, has given up 35 1st half points to 4-loss South Carolina. I tell you, if Tennessee loses and UCLA beats USC, then both Michigan and Ohio State have one foot in the playoff. Unless LSU beats Georgia, which isn't going to happen. Would be a stretch to put in Clemson over the Michigan-OSU loser; they have a blowout loss to Notre Dame and no one in the ACC is any good

True, but almost half the teams in the league are average to poor. If the Wings can pile up the points against them, they'll end up in the 80s if not the 90s How about those NJ Devils? What the heck is going no there?

Hronek on fire. Roofs one. 4-1 Wings. What a 2nd period.

Did I hear 7 points in 7 games?

Hronek opportunistically pounces on a loose bouncing puck and just blasts it from close in. Wings regain the lead, 2-1.

1-0 Wings after 1. Top line of Larkin-Perron-Kubalik.

Beat Ohio. Make it a winning road trip. Larkin's PP goal gives the Wings a 1st period lead.

What, you really think Georgia, Ohio St and TCU did much more than Michigan this week? Kentucky, Illinois, Baylor and Maryland are all around the same level of mediocrity. The top 4, who all struggled, will stay the same.

OSU trails

Yeah, in 2006 Michigan won their final home game by only 8 points over Ball St. and that was forgotten by the day of the OSU game. The win is fine, Michigan was due for a tight one like just about every other team in the country had already had. Health is bigger concern.

Game was so close, wasn’t even time for the Beat Ohio chant.

And that one second could have been meaningful, given PI risk into field goal position.

Why spike it with 20 second to g?Dumb. Could run it right down.

What bowl does a 10-2 Michigan go to?

Refs had to flag that. Anthony had to catch that.

This is like so many Michigan games this year. TD on opening drive makes it look easy, then muddles around for a quarter.

7-4 win brings the road trip record to 1-1-1. Shaky second half of the 3rd to say the least though.

How many faceoffs in a row have the Wings lost?

Gift from the Sharks goalie. 6-4. Somehow the way the Wings have played the past 10 minutes I don’t feel this lead is 100% safe.

That Wings goal seems like a blip. Sharks continue their surge.

Seider off the schneid. Steps in and snaps it on the short side. 5-4 Wings.

And just like that it’s 4-4. Both quick ones after faceoffs. Not another 3rd period meltdown, eh?

Veleno! 4-2. I know the Sharks are bad, but nice to see the Wings consistently a step ahead of the other team.

Wings seemed to let up after that goal and were hanging on until the intermission. 3-2 Wings after 2.

Gotta be impressed by the effort of Rasmussen. Knocks it to Walman for the go-ahead goal. Very good 2nd period.
