I'll take Michigan. This Wolverine teams is very similar to last year's Notre Dame team. Good offense, nonexistent defense. This game will more than likely be a shootout but I don't see Purdue keeping up.

Excited to visit my 1st Big Ten stadium other than the Big House. Has anyone been Ross Ade Stadium before?

I'm taking Purdue at home - the Boilers always seem to win one game in which no one thinks they have a chance. A young UM team is still going to be full of themselves after beating Illinois in an emotional home game.

Michigan can gain a little more legitimacy with a win against Purdue this week. They would be 7-3 and still theoretically in the running for a half way decent bowl bid even though everyone knows they can't play a lick of defense. I would expect this game to be in the 40's 30's range. How about 48-37? (Meeeeeechigan).

I'm thinking about going to the game with my wife. Never been there either.

Actually hoping for a Michigan v. Texas (Texas Bowl)...It would be fun to show up at Reliant (though not as fun as a Texans game) and yell Hook Em for the first time ever

The only thing I've heard about Ross Ade is that the visitors sit in the open sided endzone and are blocked/roped off from the rest of the stadium. There are visitor bathrooms and concessions that are specifically for them. It kind of sounds like Yankee Stadium and the bleacher seats. I know Michigan Stadium isn't like this, and I haven't heard of any other Big 10 Stadium. I read that online somewhere, but it was from a few years ago and from a Michigan fan.
I was hoping a fellow chatter would have been there and be able to give some legit info.

I've been to Ross Ade stadium and I think it's the crappiest Big 10 stadium. (I've not been to Wisconsin, Iowa or the new Minnesota stadium.) A close second is Northwestern's visitor section. They both seem to me like big high school stadiums. Actually as I think about it, Massilon's stadium is probably better.

Is Gardner going to be able to get a redshirt this year? I think he got in for a couple plays in a couple games and played significant time against BG. I have no idea what the rules on that are.

I went to the Purdue-Ball state game. Parking is a breeze. It is very easy to find a close side street and walk to the stadium. I got there just before kick off and had no problem. Not much to do there is very little tailgating. The stadium is not that big. Not a bad place to watch a football game. They have several places just outside the stadium that you can eat and it's reasonably priced. Be prepared for the annoying "Boiler Up cheer" and the man crush videos on Drew Brees.

I saw Michigan vs. Purdue a couple years ago at Michigan Stadium, so I got that experience from the visitors and the band.
It does seem like a high school stadium though. I also found out that parking is a breeze through their website. Thanks for information guys!

Michigan up 14-0 with 3:50 left in the first quarter.
They scored on a fumble to start the scoring and Denard Robinson hit Roy Roundtree for the second score.
