I hope this gets the attention of those who post every fall saying they want to see Michigan lose to Notre Dame. I may have been one of the very few people in the 'shoe on Saturday who did not cheer at the final score of the UM - ASU debacle. Linked to the shellacking USC put on them and the beat down
OSU suffered in the BCS, the winners were clearly the Pac 10 and the SEC.
Like it or not the Bucks are linked to a significant degree to the health of the league and thus to the fortunes of Michigan.
So significant is the story of the upset that Notre Dame getting whacked by 30 points at home by Ga Tech got buried.
The Big 10 NEEDS Penn State, Michigan and Michigan State to come through against the Irish or else
OSU's games with those teams will carry little weight in the polls.
