I don't really care about Michigan. All I know is that it was a good win for Utah (or anyone else) to win on the road against a Big-Ten opponent. Attempts to denigrate that win by pointing to subsequent events are pointless and hardly relevant.

On the other hand, a win is just a win. There aren't bonus points for "good" wins or losses. In the end, a team is only as good as its record. Michigan isn't very good right now. Utah is.

Michigan up 10 at Penn State. Looks like they save their best efforts for elite opponents only.

A Michigan victory in the Big House.

Priceless.

Honest question: How many heads explode in SoCal if OSU wins the Pac10? WF in a Speedo won't save you, if that goes down.
