Wasn't that OSU-Michigan game "Shat-rageous" or whatever the ad for "Show Me The Money" says. And to witness the trailer for the new "Rocky" was almost unbearable. Also, I'm sure Bo was "looking live" from football Valhalla, but his death had not much impact on the game, as some misguided people thought.

I have been pretty much anti-Michigan-OSU rematch, but I think it may happen. Rutgers died in Cincinnati. USC won (and isn't it funny to hear the announcer say, "He got a piece of Booty.") and if they beat Notre Dame next week, the Irish are out. Realistically, how could Michigan fall behind Notre Dame, given the fact they beat them handily. I still believe the SEC winner has a shot, but 42-39 is tough to ignore.

As for the game, Michigan played OK, but they never really stopped OSU on defense. I think OSU may have had one or two punts all day. I thought Michael Hart and Chad Henne played big for Michigan, but it's tough to compete with the passing game of OSU. Troy Smith won the Heisman today, and their receivers had a really good first half. But the two long runs up the middle just killed the Wolverines.

We got to see another coach kick an extra point when he should have gone for two, but it only mattered from the standpoint of Michigan having to attempt a 2-point conversion after their next touchdown, which they did. It's becoming an epidemic of stupidity. Disappointing today, but as Gordon Gekko says: "You win a few, you lose a few, but you keep on fighting. And if you need a friend, get a dog."
