Florida State football, recruiting news: Will FSU & Michigan combine for double digit sacks?

Football:

Both Wilton Speight & Deondre Francois could be in for a rough night next Friday as FSU & Michigan are first & 2nd in sacks in the nation, respectively. Dan Murphy has a bold prediction:

The two teams will combine for a double-digit sack total. The Seminoles led the nation with 47 sacks in the regular season. Michigan wasn't far behind with 44 -- including eight in their most recent game against Ohio State. Those defensive lines both feature veterans who will be trying to make themselves a little more money with a strong showing in their final fully-padded audition before the NFL draft
