But it’s Western.
But it’s SMU.
But it’s Nebraska.
These are the qualifiers that you’ll hear after three-consecutive weeks of blowouts for the Michigan Wolverines, the latest of which was a 56-10 drubbing of the Cornhuskers on Saturday in Ann Arbor to move to 3-1 on the season. It’s completely justified, but there’s something to be said about beating the snot out of inferior teams.
Nobody gives credit when a football team does it, because that’s what good teams do. Michigan played essentially three overmatched, JV team-looking squads the last three weeks and outscored them by a margin of 150-33.
