This has been the week of upsets in college football, and it couldn't have come at a better time. The Oregon State Beavers shocked the college football world on Thursday with a win over my most-hated team, the #1 USC Trojans from crappy Cali (27-21). The disappointed look on the face of their coach, Pete Carroll, was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen!
Then Saturday, Michigan came from behind for an unbelievable victory over the #9 Wisconsin Badgers (27-25). When I heard this, I honestly couldn't believe my ears. I had been listening to the game when it was still in the third quarter with Michigan losing 19-0. Who would have thought that un-ranked Michigan was capable of scoring 20 points against a team like Wisconsin in the fourth quarter alone? I like to call it a Michigan Miracle.
Unfortunately, Michigan still has a way to go this season. Even if they are currently 5th in the Big Ten standings, they still need to beat teams like Ohio State and Penn State if they are going to get anywhere close to the Rose Bowl this year. Who knows, Northwestern might even surprise everyone and make it pretty far. They currently sit atop the Big Ten standings, which I didn't see coming at all.
I guess we'll have to take it week by week. Saturday can't get here soon enough!
