Zamberlin: She might actually win cause she has better knees, and I haven't bowled in quite a while.
Bengal: Do you golf? What's your lowest score on 18 holes?
Zamberlin: I don't golf very well, I love 'scrambles' and 'best ball'.
Bengal: What did you think about Division I-AA Appalachian State defeating Michigan on the opening day of the season?
Zamberlin: It was great for us as a smaller school and conference and for college football in general, but not for Michigan. I've used it several times this week as a motivational tool for our team. Especially, because we're going to play some tough teams this season.
