Their game against Maryland was scary similar. At least we had a couple more total yards.

I think Michigan has a pretty good football team now. If they played the utes again, they would crush them. I watched Ohio state today and I think I would take Michigan right now in that matchup.

Utes luck out again based on schedule timing...

Michigan on a roll. BYU, I'm afraid, ran into a highly motivated team that has all components coming together the last 2 weeks.

let's not talk about UCLA though. Or Nebraska.

The Boise State win should look good later. They were up 49-0 on Hawaii at the HALF.

As one who helped promote the "Michigan may have cheated" theme, I'll need to be honest and say... I agree. Excellent defense and overall execution on display. Strong evidence the win over BYU was not an outlier performance.

In a way this is very comforting. I'd rather not believe that BYU got cheated on, or that ANY college program isn't cheating by paying off refs or stealing playbooks. If that were happening, BYU would have no chance in the future.

The idea that Michigan did so well against BYU because, turns out, Michigan is GOOD, is good news overall. Hopefully the BYU receiving coach learns a lot from this and comes back stronger. Now about our run defense....

I'm beginning to see a pattern here...

Michigan is currently steamrolling #13 Northwestern 28-0 before halftime.

Michigan has given up 14 points in the last 5 games. Yea I think we can say they are good.As much as I hated the loss to them all of a sudden even that loss does not look quite as bad as it did.
