"Poor Big Ten. Will it go 3 for 3 against the SEC on January 8th?"
That's what I mean. I can't believe we continue to see GOOD WEATHER being offered as an excuse for a team supposedly performing under expectations. I can see if BAD WEATHER screwed up a game, but good weather? I just think some of these people don't want to face some obvious conclusions, such as 'maybe your team isn't all that good'.
Quite an impressive game by USC yesterday. To your point, I would attribute the victory 2/3 to USC's talent and 1/3 to Lloyd Carr's incredible incompetence. The two things we can be certain of are that USC looked much quicker and more physical than UM yesterday, and Carr made no adjustments whatsoever to what was happening on the field.
