"Instead of the wind chill factors they adjust (gladly) to shorts and tees again. They get the whirlwind bowl treatment and -presto- they don't focus on business."
Did Michigan look 'unfocused' yesterday (playing USC to a 3-3 tie in the first half) or did they just get blown off the field by a better team? That whole weather/bowl distractions/travel thing is such bs. Most Bowl games are played in good weather locations or under domes, and every other conference in the country seems to do OK. All week long the reporters were commenting on how Michigan looked focused at practice and USC did not. USC has beaten Michigan/Ohio State 10 of the last 12 times they have played. It ain't weather, they are just generally a better program.
The commentators were practically handing Michigan the trophy from the pregame show through halftime and all the way until the Dwayne Jarrett show.
I wish they had shown the How to Make Omelettes From What is on My Face show.
Poor Big Ten. Will it go 3 for 3 against the SEC on January 8th? They beat #17 and #12, will #2 be next?
