You kids stay off my lawn!
Look at it this way, TV has gotta sell product. Michigan plays Cincinnati - try getting eyeballs to watch that - so you suggest this may be the "surprise team of 2017." Ohio State plays Oklahoma - no problem getting eyebealls on that, especially if you suggest that Ohio State may have a problem dealing with a Heisman worthy QB based on the yards they gave up to Indiana - a team that has a losing record to Northwestern. Marketing. Has little to do with reality.There are a few programs, that somehow, someway con their way into the preseason top-25 every year despite fielding a dog[Mark May] team every year for almost a decade...Texas, Florida, Tennessee. Every year they get their asses whooped and tumble out of the rankings. It's astounding educated people fall for it every year. I guarantee you Indiana would have whooped that horse [Mark May] offense by two touchdowns, minimum. But somehow, scUM gets a "quality win" on their resume, and we "escape" Indiana.
