I give you OSU, no question. I believe that Texas and USC are the two best teams in the country. But Michigan was at home. If you are a top five team, and that includes OSU, you should win at home. As the saying goes, "we must protect this house". Iowa will bounce back. But for all three of them to lose on the same day does not make the conference look good.

I'm not so sure...
about OSU being overrated, after all Texas was/ is #2 in the country. Iowa lost Drew Tate, their starting qb very early. I don't know much about Iowa State admittedly, but a number of different pundits/ talking heads/ prognosticators said that Iowa would have a tough time with them, so losing their starting qb certainly did not help the Hawkeyes. As for Michigan I think we can chalk that up to three things: Charlie Weiss, who has gotten the Irish really focused and has the rt offense for a qb like Brady Quinn, 2) ND's defense playing well, paricularly when Michigan got into scoring position, and Michigan shooting itslef in the foot more than a few times.

Overrated indeed!
I am getting sick of seeing the Wolverines blow their National Title hopes in the first couple of weeks every damn year!
