I'll throw my two cents in here. I hate both OSU and Mich. I'm a Wisconsin fan (and Colorado but not admitting it this year).

I don't think Jake Plummer was ever that good. They should have left his ass in Arizona. Up to now he has just done barely enough to keep his job. It finally caught up to him this year when the running game wasn't there to bail his ass out. I hope Cutler can do a better job...he can't do worse.
