Michigan won a football game on Saturday and beat its instate rival. Yes, this game is always more important to Sparty but when it looked like Sparty is taking steps on the way up and Michigan has fallen off the mountain top, it was a nice feeling on Saturday night. More relief than happiness but I will take it.
Why couldn't Purdue or Rutgers be next on the schedule? Instead the #1 team in the nation will make their way to the Big House.
Let's do this quickly and get back to the win on Saturday:
#1 Oregon Ducks
Record: 7-0
Best Win: Ohio State
Worst Loss: None
The Ducks have what is considered an easy path to the Big Ten Championship game the rest of the season.
