Michigan scares OSU fans after Notre Dame Beating
Thinking they owned the college football world, Ohio State fans have another thing comin' after Michigan beat up Notre Dame at Notre Dame on Saturday. While Notre Dame is always overrated, beating them at their house is always quite an accomplishment. Of course, Michigan State will put another a-sbeating on Notre Dame this Saturday and thus make Michigan's victory seem less impressive. But for now, Ohio State fans, players and coaches have to be sweating and re-evaluating their conference title hopes which, heretofore, had to have been a foregone conclusion, at least, in their minds.
Also of note, Ohio State does not possess the number 1 defense against the rush. Currently, Michigan does, giving up just 21 yards a game. That has to be a blow to their collective psyche.
