    Came away from the USC/Michigan game completely unimpressed by either team. USC should not have been the 10th ranked team.

    I came away just the opposite. That was some brutal football. The Ducks at Michigan is going to be tough. Also, USC now has a defense.

    Silver lining in first year of Big 10 is that there’s a 12 team playoff.

    So one loss isn’t crippling

    Wow? USC vs Michigan was a great game. Not sure what you watched? I thought Michigan was playing great and USC turned it way up in the second half but just fell short. Rankings seems about right?

    It isn't crippling but it will cost you the first draw. You will be playing a very tough game to start the playoffs.

    Gotta beat those teams to win the whole thing anyway.

    But point taken.

    Michigan cannot throw the ball. At all. If you can stop the run, you easily win the game.

    Neither team could throw the ball. It was entertaining, but they both looked anemic on offense.
