Last week was expected against the vaunted Ohio State Buckeyes. However, the number of penalties and dropped passes destroyed any chance MSU could have had.
In my way-too-early preview in the summer, I had Michigan State beating the Badgers. However, Wisconsin has looked good thus far, but it is difficult to tell because their level of competition was been subpar.
Yes, Michigan is in the top 25, but outside of Wisconsin, the Wolverines have played nobody. The Wolverines’ offensive line woes and turnovers, as well as a defense that was constantly out of position, led to their defeat.
